    Construction vs. Structural Depth?

    Nah, I think even with a fail it's worth the $250 bucks to have the experience under my belt if I have to take it a again. Surely there must be someone else out there as underprepared as me!

    Construction vs. Structural Depth?

    Longtime Listener first time caller as they say. I'm curious if anyone has a recommendation on which depth section is easiest? I'm to say the least very very underprepared. Worked very few sample problems and have done very little review. My background is in structural but with computer...
