    CA Seismic & Surveying Exams

    EET is a course but they also sell their manual separately. Just their manual alone probably wouldn't have everything you need. When you sign up for a course they provide with additional documents with relevant information from different chapters of ASCE/CBC so although the manual has all of the...

    CA Seismic & Surveying Exams

    Definitely EET for seismic. I took Hiner and failed. I probably wasn't the best student but I failed so bad I couldn't believe. EET is much better organized, gives you loooots of relevant problems, CBT tests that are very representative of the exam, they will give you everything you need for the...

    California PE License- Out of Stater's

    I highly recommend taking EET course or at least buying their study and practice test books for seismic. EET provides more practice tests and their book covers more than Hiner's in my opinion. If you search this forum you will find more opinions though.

    Everything you wanted to know about the CA-Survey/Seismic Civil PE Exams

    That's quite a drop in 2018 from increasing pass rates from 2014 to 2017, for both seismic and survey.

    Exam Preperation

    EET for seismic. I took Hiner and failed and now taking EET course. Don't know yet how I will do but if you are considering a full course with videos and stuff, I definitely recommend EET over Hiner. It's just more elaborate, you don't have to get ASCE or CBC (everything will be in the EET...

    April Test Takers

    I agree about hand drawing. This is when I wish these tests were still paper and not CBT so I didn't have to waste time making addtl drawings/sketches.

    Failed seismic after taking Hiner. Recommendations?

    I 100% agree that Hiner didn't provide enough practice problems. Also for me I think I missed the bigger picture and it was difficult to understand what forces were being asked to solve for. Restudying with EET now and will do looooots of practice problems this time :)

    I had exact opposite experience. Failed seismic after studying with Hiner for 3 months but passed survey with CPESR with 5 weeks of studying. For me personally seismic was a more difficult concept so now I am restudying with EET and it's just starting to seem organized in my head. Have to...

    March 2019 Test Results

    I also used CPESR for survey. Glad it worked out for you! And now I am studying with EET for seismic. I hope to finish their videos in time and have time to solve lots of practice problems (which I didn't do with Hiner course). I also have a toddler and pregnant with another so I hear ya 😅

    March 2019 Test Results

    Sorry you failed seismic but congrats on survey! Can't even imagine studying for both at the same time. I failed seismic on my first try in February but just passed survey. How did you study and how are you going to re-study for seismic again?

    CPESR Survey Tests

    I finished all CPESR exams 3 days prior to the test and because I only had couple days left I redid the second medium one. I was going to repeat the first medium one because I thought I already forgot it but ended up doing the second medium because I did worse on that one. I am glad I did it.

    I would email them, they are usually very responsive. Or even call them.

    I didn't receive anything. They cashed my check on the 22nd - two days after my application was delivered.

    2 days before I take survey

    I am taking survey on Friday in two days, so I have tonight and tomorrow nights to study. I did CPESR CBT practice tests once. Scored 63-70%. I am half-way into "120 solved surveying problems book". Would you suggest I finish the rest of the 60/120 problems in these two nights or retake one or...
