It's actually a gif to help with breath meditation. Breath in while the shape expands, and out while it retracts. Do it several times, and it is supposed to help calm oneself down.
it is definitely working on me..

Thanks Leggo PE :)

 
Passed all three first try.

Just sent my notification form.  I could be wrong but I think we might have to wait until the end of June for our License....

Trying to find this on the BPELSG website.  Where is it? Looking for instructions to submit my notice of successful examination form.

Anyone else find the BPELSG website to be very user-unfriendly and frustrating? The organization is horrible. Hard to find information you need.

Agreed! The website is not super easy to navigate.

The image is from here: http://bpelsg.ca.gov/applicants/ncees_pe_exam_next_steps.shtml

The easiest way to find it was to go to "Next Steps" from your NCEES dashboard, which is right next to your results.

Go to your "MyNCEES" page.  right beside where it says you passed the PE, click on "Next Steps".

This seems to be a new way of doing this.  Probably a product of decoupling the PE from the State exams.  We might be the first round to have to do this.

 
Thanks guys. Also perfect example of how the BPELSG website is difficult. Try to navigate there from the BPELSG homepage. I don't think they have any links to it. So frustrating!

That might be by design, since this page only pertains to those who passed the PE.

That being said, I agree it's not at all a user friendly site! 

 
Failed all 3 last year, crushed all 3 this year. Thank freaking god! Thanks for the company this board offered in this unique situation. (and sometimes just added unneeded paranoia, bahaha)  Good luck to everyone, hit it hard until its crushed. 
Careful with your words there, @SoCalBound is the moral police here and he will find you! 

@SoCalBound Got you another millenial you can hate on. You're welcome.

Can anyone give me a recommendation for surveying? I just failed it miserably, although I felt good when talking it. I'm structural not civil, so it's New territory. Thanks.

Oh man, in the exact same situation as you! I felt good after I took it, but didn't pass. I had one deficient and that screwed me over, so probably could have been 3-4 questions tops. Passed the nationals and seismic though. 

Well the only suggestion is start studying earlier than you did this time around. Get hold of Coumo's book, they say it's good and Monsour is another good author, though I wouldn't completely rely on only one book, learned the hard way this time. And then I'm def going to do the 120 solved questions book this time. And remember to be smart when you tab your material for the exam. Not to mention you have little to no time to refer to your material during the test so you should pretty much know how to solve a question when you see it. And that requires putting in more hours and practice. 

Make sure you nail down the field measurements portion because that's a good chunk of the test questions pie. That's what screwed me over this time. 

And as always, second time's a charm!
