    Reporting other engineer to state board

    Every time I go over a bridge, under a bridge, or drive in a parking garage, I wonder the type of person the engineer(s) were/are that signed the drawings.

    Is it unethical to take vacation days even though I used all mine all up to study for this stupid test?

    It's only been 2 days....42 days to go?

    By the way, this wasn't meant to be a hostile post or anything.   I'm going through the typical phases listed while we wait for scores. This week I'm in the mindset that I obviously failed and they're taking too long to let me know.

    It's only been 2 days....42 days to go?

    I really hope I passed so I can have some fun tormenting the EIT's on this forum.   Nothing is funny right now. If I would have left the test site feeling better than I did, some of y'all are hilarious.   Until I see a green "pass", y'all are some jerks playing with my emotions.

    Is there any reference material for spamming?  I'm a virgin at this.

    Mechanical Failing Scores

    I'm with you @TxMechEng!  Since June, I prepped for about 2 hrs during my lunch break, and another hour at home after the kids went to bed.  Took a vacation this summer with the family and studied every evening at the pool while the kids swam.  People including my wife were looking at me like I...

    Mechanical Failing Scores

    I understand and appreciate how those on this board do not want us to have a false sense of hope in regards to passing or failing - I humbly do appreciate that.   I only felt good on only about 50-ish of the questions.  The theory of @TxMechEng and @LifeSucks does at least give me some hope...

    Good gosh!  Some of y'all are savages.  It must be the PE status.

    October 2016 exam

    For those of you that took the TF depth, how many did you think you got correct or felt good about?

    October 2016 exam

    For the AM, I wished I had done better. I tallied about 30 that I felt good about. The rest were me just guessing "B". The PM TFS, was rough for me.  I definitely wasted these past 6 months studying the wrong things. I tallied only about 20 that I felt good about.  The other 20 I either...

    6 days! Everyone ready?

    Definitely ready to get this thing over with.  At times I feel like I'm ready but I can tell I'm getting burned out.  I started Thursday to work on the SMS exams but just couldn't focus, so I took a few days off from studying and just organized myself.  It was a good thing because it has taken...

    With 10 days to go, what are you focusing on?

    Good luck everyone.  I hope you get to feeling better soon LifeSucks!

    With 10 days to go, what are you focusing on?

    Plan on working the SMS TF and MM until Thursday. So far I've worked the NCEES and SMS exams about 4 times each.    I feel comfortable with most problems but not so sure about qualitative problems. I may buy the PPI flash cards app to help.    I worry that maybe I don't really know what I'm...

    Constant Cp vs. Average Cp

    Sorry if this is a repeat question but I didn't see an answer that convinced me one way or another.   So I'm ok with the principle of Qdot = m*cp*delta T.  So far I've been assuming constant specific heat regardless if it's air or water entering a heat exchanger.  If I understand the MERM...

    Tough criticism and Prep Help

    Thanks for the advise JHW 3d and no offense taken!  I do plan to take a review course if I fail again this test cycle; I think it's a requirement by my state board for a third attempt.   I'm grateful that I broke down and bought the ridiculously priced NCEES 2001 for problems such as the one...

    Tough criticism and Prep Help

    Alright folks I need some honest, blunt but helpful advise for this upcoming PE-Thermal Fluid System test. I'm going through the NCEES 2001 AM and TF test today and tomorrow.  I did the AM Friday, Saturday and Sunday when I could but a few problems tripped me up like it was my first time seeing...
