I’ve been in the building code admin industry for over 20 years. The industry is hurting bad right now, especially in the LA county area. It was hard to find good plan check or inspection staff before COVID. It’s gotten worse now with experienced engineers retiring. There’s been a big turn over...

BPELGS just updated their license lookup. New licenses our now posted! I've been waiting for this moment a long time. Congrats to all the new registered engineers! Now I can finally relax!

I turn 45 next month. I first took this exam in 1998, 3 times and failed. Back then the afternoon was a written exam and I missed passing the PE by 1 point and BPELGS wouldn't let it slide. I was so discouraged and gave up.....a move I regretted all these years. I signed up and took the exam...

Looks like BPELSG will be holding their Board meeting on Thursday, June 1st. The exam results are on the agenda Looks like we got a week or so to get our license #s. The brightside...no more exams!

My email just said "Your notice has been received". The Board really likes to torture us. Great!..........another month of waiting.

Finally passed the structural on the 4th try. For those that didn't pass, it's discouraging but don't give up! I took this thing back in 1998 3 times and gave up..........and regretted that decision all these years. Taking the PE after so many years was 10X harder and after passing this time...

I thought the morning was easy and struggled in the afternoon structural a bit.  I had 14 questions I had skipped over and went back to try and answer. My score was 50/80 and didn't pass. There's no way the passing score was 47/80. 

doubleH…thanks for the encouragement. Just a bit frustrated after taking this thing 3x. If you can, it would be great to hear how you organized yourself to pass. I need to pass this thing and get on with my life. Thanks again!

Thanks! I took the on-demand EET course before retaking the School of PE review course. I did really well in the morning session but not so great in the afternoon. I forgot most of the EET review when the exam approached. I think I'm just taking the live EET course this time around. Thanks for...

Thanks!

Thanks! This was my 3rd time taking the national exam. I've been scoring in the low 50's so knowing that I'm just a few questions from passing is so frustrating. I'm thinking of switching disciplines.

I see a lot of WR and Construction depth PE takers. Did anyone take the Structural depth and pass? Have to retake it again and was wondering if they took a review course that prepped them well. Thanks!….and congrats to those that passed.
