Took gravity alone and failed. Any advice on whether to attempt gravity alone again or gravity and lateral together next time?
How did you do on the gravity exam based on the diagnostic report? Are you almost there or need a lot improvement?
If you are pretty close to pass and got enough time to study for lateral, then go ahead and take both exams in April. Otherwise, may be one exam at a time.

Also, since there are only 2 P&P exam dates left before transition to CBT, I would also decide if I want to pass both portions of exam while in P&P or one in P&P and the other in CBT.

Thank you for the feedback. I was pretty close, so I think I am going to attempt both.

Although I don't recommend taking both exams on the same cycle (just my personal preference), it might be a good idea to do that this year since the transition to CBT next year will more likely involve updated design codes.
 
California Board, taking the lateral SE (buildings) exam in Reno, NV. Results: Failed.
24 correct on the breadth, UA/IR/A/A on the depth.
Identical results to my previous try this past April. Worst part about this is that the vertical portion I previously passed is now set to expire. Will probably take a long break and try to retake the exam once they are computer based. :(
I'm considering taking my exam in Reno. Where was the exam location? I'm trying to lock down a hotel/AirBnB as close as possible to the site.
