If there's no way to get your money back or if you don't care either way I would definitely go take it. You've got 5 more weeks to study. Have you taken any prep classes? You could sign up for Zach's class for a month. 

Is anybody else stressed about the possibility of NCEES cancelling the exam due to COVID-19? The thought popped into my head earlier this week and I just pushed it aside. Things in my area have gotten more real today. My office is more than likely going to be closing and we will work from home...

I completed the EngPro Full Exam a couple weeks ago and replicated testing conditions in a conference room at work. I took more/longer bathroom and drink breaks than I will on test day but everything else was similar. I did passes as well. 1st pass - all the questions I could answer easily, 2nd...

THANKS!!!! That's an awesome tip! I've used the same binders for every exam so the rings are starting to lose some of their strength. Once I think I'm done adding/moving things around I will definitely do that!

Exactly! It really was an easy read. I think I made my way through it including tabbing in 2 weeks or less just by reading it before bed. Not exactly my preferred bedtime book genre but it was ok. 

Yeah I have a lot of binders. I took Zach's class so all of that course work is in the purple, pink, blue and white binder that is not labeled. The grey one is quick reference formulas and the black one is worked out problems. So far so good with the Protective Relaying book. I've only gotten...

I was talking to my husband about that last night. There are events all over the place that are being cancelled as a precaution. So if it comes down to it, will NCEES have to cancel altogether or depending on amount of test takers per state would they be able to split it up to multiple locations...

I was originally planning on getting the tiger t-shirt to wear to the exam, but now I'm feeling like the 'smile if you're dead inside' feels more like my mood.

I mean what else can you do!?!? 

Here is my stash. I'm missing a protection book. I've already read through it so I just need to find it and browse through it again. The only book here I'm not familiar with is the electronics book. I did pretty poorly in that topic last time so I need to sit down and spend some time going...

That guy has the MOVES!!!! 

I came into the office today and we had an 'All-Hands' meeting to discuss COVID-19. We're a global company so it's being monitored closely. The thought of the virus affecting the exam crossed my mind the other day but I pushed the though aside. I just went to NCEES.org to check on something else...

Thanks! It makes me feel better seeing these photos. I have always taken this exam with a milk crate full of books or rolling in a suitcase. I have sat near other electricals who have only carried the Camara reference a code book and maybe one other book. All I could think is, what is wrong...

I scored 75% on the EngPro Guide Full Exam last weekend. There were several problems that I had to guess on and got right so I definitely still have work to do. I don't remember what topics I struggled with the most. I was a complete slacker over weekend. This coming up weekend I'm going to take...

I would maybe just talk to someone at the front desk of the library and let them know what you are doing. Once they see the spread you have they should understand why you needed a suitcase  :laugh: I like to take practice exams at my office. We have conference/training rooms with setups similar...

Every time has been very different! Every time I have taken it I have been blindsided by some topic or another that I wasn't fully prepared for.  

Yeah I'll take it please. I just meant that on the actual exam I bet the problems will be a lot more difficult than simply calculating the multiple of pickup and finding the time dial setting. This was another one of those that I just punched some numbers in the calculator and wrote my answer...

The exams are always in McKimmon Center. I haven't spent any time walking around on campus. I always drive up on Thursday and at that point I'm just relieved to be there so I go out for dinner and go back to my room. I don't need any extra excitement the day before the exam :)  When the test is...

NC State University

Haha! The main room has around 300-400 people and then there are probably 7 -10 rooms with 50-75 people. There's also an alternate location for overflow that's at a hotel. I took the exam there once and it was amazing!!! Requested a late checkout so I just woke up, went downstairs for breakfast...
