    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I was issued my number 6/4, and I have not received my wall certificate. I also haven't even received an email or anything. I'm not surprised about the wall certificate, I'm sure we won't get those for many weeks after the issue date.

    CA Civil Surveying Exam - Study Recommendation

    I took the EET surveying course after I used them for both portions of the 8 hour exam review courses, and I was able to pass the first time for surveying. I did as they recommended, probably studied for about 4-6 weeks just from that course and it was enough. I have to say though that I have...

    Everything you wanted to know about the CA-Survey/Seismic Civil PE Exams

    When your application is approved, they give you your Approval To Test (ATT) and you are eligible to take both of the CA specific exams in the quarter following your ATT. If you don't pass both tests in that quarter, you can reapply. Go through the Retest application and when you get your ATT...

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    Congrats! It could be 4-6 weeks. They issue new numbers every other Friday (very late in the day). I got passing results on 5/10 then license issued 6/4.

    License Expiration Date

    I was just issued my license yesterday too, and I have the same expiration. I'm not sure the reasoning, but maybe it's some sort of probationary thing? Hopefully we'll get an email or letter from the board explaining why that is, or if we need to do anything (PDUs, etc?)

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I was one of the lucky 104 folks that was issued my license number! Almost exactly 2 years ago I signed up for my first review course to start studying for the 8 hour exam. Good luck to everyone out there that still needs to get past it, you can do it!

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I go to BPELSG website and do a civil engineer license search. Right now the highest license number is 92569. When 92570 shows up, it means they have added more numbers.

    How do you know whether a SFRS is a bearing wall or building frame system

    I noticed this same sort of problem when I was going through problems from the AEI practice exam book, and I would also pick the wrong R value too. I actually took Hiner's review course, and bought AEI practice exams, so I asked Steven (the instructor of the review course), and he mentioned that...

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I got my last passing result on 5/10 and I am hoping I get my license number today (fingers crossed!), but I think more realistically it won't come til June. I just checked the PE lookup tool and they haven't released new licenses yet. I believe they release new licenses every two weeks on...

    Cheat sheets for horizontal and vertical curves

    I used the ones that came with the review courses that I took (from EET) and those worked well for me. My binders also had plenty of tabs to get me quickly to certain parts of the material.

    Failed Surveying again - PLEASE HELP

    This is a really good point. When I started studying for my seismic exam (I know, different test...) I was very slow on my first pass through the material. I did 3 practice exams and I couldn't finish the test. When I took the real seismic exam on my first attempt, same thing, I couldn't finish...

    Q2 2021 Post-Surveying Exam Thoughts

    Personally, I took EET for 8 hour and surveying, and I thought their material was put together well. I passed each test first time. I did have a decent amount of background in surveying just from working on construction sites and interacting with surveyors, so maybe I was primed for...

    Q2 2021 Post-Surveying Exam Thoughts

    Man, I hope it's today. I'm so anxious for the results. I felt so good about my seismic test. It's my last test to pass, and this was my second attempt. I just want to see that green PASS and I'll be done studying forever!

    Prometric Exam kept Fteezing and crashing during exam

    I was one of the test takers who got the error on the test, and I got this email today: The Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors and Geologists was notified by Prometric in early March that there was a technical issue affecting the delivery of both the Engineering Surveying and...
