I had the same question and was directed to someone on NCEES' SE committee. I'm assuming you're going to be/planning to take either the vertical or lateral part in October, and then the other in 2024 when the exam transitions to CBT. I may be in the same boat as you. Assuming (and hoping) you...

I'm not sure the NCEES podcast quite addressed this, but does anyone know what happens in the event that a candidate has passed just one module (either vertical or lateral) of the pencil and paper-based test by the time the CBT transition comes along? I would hope NCEES does not void the...

Hi All, I submitted my application to the CA board for SE licensure late July, and still hadn't heard back. Upon emailing the board, I was recently told that there is a rather substantial civil engineering application backlog, and that the (only) person reviewing the applications will not be...

Do we know when this transition will happen?

Hi Folks, I was wondering if I could get a little help here regarding the SE Exam eligibility criteria in California. I was slightly unclear about the "three years of qualifying full-time work experience" requirement. As I understand it, the board requires one to have the at least three...

Didn't use anything more than those two. Try and get your hands on EET Seismic exam book, twas pretty helpful. 

I had the Spring 2019 version. Not sure how much it has changed considering both will be geared towards the new test specifications. Call Reza, he will be able to tell you best. 

 Survey first time, I used Mansour and Cuomo. Bought Reza pretty late in the game (1 week prior) and couldn't look into it much, still almost passed. Second time, studied that Reza book inside-out for 3 weeks. Solved ALL problems in it twice, hard/challenging ones 3-4 times. Crushed the test...

It usually shows up the following Saturday morning (even late friday night)

Subject to completion of all requirements (examinations and application), license numbers are released every other Friday. The last set was released on June 7th, so the next set will be put on June 21st. 

Yeah mine showed up last night!! 

Anyone's license number showing up? I was told June 7th is when the next set will be released. 

Try and get the Reza workbook. I did all the problems in the book about 2-3 times, some of them even 4-5 times. Saw quite a few similar problems on the test. Easily the most representative of the test. Good luck!

I was able to get in touch with someone working at the board. Turns out they messed up. My license number will now be generated next cycle on June 7th. How frustrating!

I still don't show up. Anyone else on the same boat?
