Got email and found that I passed.
This is what I wrote before in another thread, hope it help a little bit. Thanks to the engineer boards for lots of invaluable information.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First time exam taker. Started to prepare for the exam from beginning of September, after kids back to school from crazy summer. Skimmed through EERM (borrowed from coworker who took test long time ago) and did NCEES/CI twice. no review course.
At test, saw other people have recent Power Reference Manual from PPI first time and wish I had one. I only printed out table of content of NESC and hope I have brought the whole code. That is a easy point to lose.
Totally astonished by the contents for the exam, the CI practice exam is not even close to the real test. How should we know what to prepare? Finished first round of morning test in 2 hours and did it again in the remaining 2 hours, find some easy miss points. In the afternoon, finished first round in 2.5 hours and reviewed the answers in the remaining time. Quite a lot of guess on questions have no clue at all. Hope I can reach the pass score.
If I need to take it again, will put more time on the motors and generators.
