Thanks mate! I am beginning the process of gathering info surrounding the PE Civil: Structural Depth exam from various parts of EB and am coming up with a game plan. Glad to hear about the Geotech (work directly with them frequently) and Construction (actually spend my weekends building house...

Fantastic. Definitely counting on a single try for this one, so I might as well pony up and get all the info that I can.

One day at a time is the way to go. I used School of PE for vert-buildings and would give it a 'meh'. No experience with AEI but I hear fantastic things often. I used the SERM primarily as my main study tool. Felt it was much more worthwhile than the much more expensive online class.

If I may (and to all others who took Civil: Structural depth): Would you recommend this strategy (no online classes, just book study) for someone who wants to take PE Civil: Structural depth but who does not have an undergrad education in civil engineering? I found the SE too difficult to pass...

I wouldn't let my lone review sway you one way or the other, but that is the truth of the matter in its entirety. Maybe I missed some wood check because I 'hurried' along so that I would have extra time for the more complex concrete problem, but I was literally on cloud nine with the afternoon...

Neither was I!

I'll add my experience to this thread as well, given that the 'Unacceptable' I received for Vert- Buildings has worn off. Results: 31/40 IR IR IR IR I will mimic others in this thread with the following statement: I do 98% wood design in my day to day engineering, and the afternoon wood...

Congrats!

Congrats to you both!

Gotcha. The tactics and keeping an eye on the whole board are great places to get a lot of practice, as it gives you a solid foundation, which is crucial. I blunder away games sometimes by leaving a bishop hanging, which is no fun.  I agree. I play 95% of my games at a 2-3 days per move time...

I stayed around 1200 for the longest time. Took me months to realize that there were opening books of moves that set you up well in the beginning game. Hovered around 1350 for a long time after that. Only when I started studying chess theory and watching games of grandmasters (annotated by...

Ah, big Gameknot player myself (1840 ELO currently, username mre30), but perhaps I can make my way over to chess.com and play a friendly game!

Check through the PE Oct 2019 results thread on this website to see where you fall relative to others. Cant recall TX, but AZ came out in the beginning-middle of the pack.

I have two trains of thought, which you probably have as well. First, if you register for buildings then all you can ever do again is buildings (not overly confident in this statement), or second, we passed one of the sections and they know we will want to take the other section in the same...

Same. I can't even focus on things that normally distract me (chess games, YouTube, etc.)

Searched through the PE results section and it seem like AZ comes out in the beginning-middle of the pack.  Phew, getting antsy now.

^^ For a name like buzzkillington that is actually a profoundly reassuring post. Haha

Same.

Mine both say available as well.

Oh my.....
