Just assume “minus 1” if you get this question on the exam and move on from this subject. spent hours trying to figure this out and never did. It wasn’t worth the time investment for me. youve got at least a 25% shot.

This was me prior to registration on this site.  I did end up passing with a score (TX) higher than i was expecting. resources above and beyond what may be required by NCEES (and the CERM and NCEES practice exam, which most already have) in order of importance: 1) review course of your...

its expensive, but you're taking the test with a hand tied behind your back if you're not doing this. i took testmasters, but had i failed construction, i would've been taking EET.

civil construction:  pass

IMO, there is too much time and money invested, too many lives on hold, to leave at 5pm.  This is what you do as a company.  This is one of the biggest days of the year for you.  this would be understandable if these were volunteers.

@RBHeadge PE what's the typical cutoff for when we can pack it in and try again in the morning?

mood changing from anxiety to anger (TX)

we don't (yet) need to do this in this thread, but there are raw structural scores posted on this site of 48 that equated to 68% and 47/67%.  i've plotted most of the reported scores from this site into excel.  again, FWIW, and don't want to derail the thread.

i went back and looked at my notes that i gathered from this site and it looks like the cut scores for structural previously calculated to closer to 50 than 51.  take that FWIW.

i didn't feel that testmasters was very good for construction depth.  i've already convinced myself i am doing EET if i have to take this test again.

its usually around 51 or so based on the percentage TX scores vs raw scores when factored linearly.
