I hope that too !  Trust me if I knew the depth exam will be this way I would definitely pass , the problem is that I was so scared from the bridges and diaphragms and that makes be sooo stressed and discouraged to study harder , but when I saw the exam I was so disappointed because it covered...

I agree with you , breadth was not easy at all , but for me I did better in breadth that depth , unfortunately i was not prepared enough in the topics they asked about :(  ......i really wish I pass but If not I would have to retake it in April 

I was surprised too by the topics they asked about ! I spent many hours on aashto and prestressed concrete. if I knew the test will focus on these subjects I would not stress out so much and maybe I would be in better shape ! 

I agree with you !  Thats what I decided to do since it’s a lot of information to cover ! .  Thank you a lot , you always have helpful tips to share 

You absolutely right , although trying to solve all the problems in the CERM practice problem books is driving me crazy but you are right , this would help me to keep the information better in my brain that trying to summarize everything. 

The only reason I was thinking to summarize because there is a lot of information out there to a limit that my brain will blow out at any point !  Very frustrating but I also believe spending time summarizing the material will be energy and time consuming .  Thanks 

Hi everyone ,  i have been studying since July , I took Ondemand school of pe Course ( very good instructors) and I am now studying on my own .  I want to ask all of you especially the ones that took or preparing to take the PE/ structural depth : are you summarizing every subject in your own...

What if I wrote with pencil on my review book ? Will it still be a problem !!!

I got it too !!!  Good luck on the exam, which depth are you taking ? 

Hiiiiii did you hear back yet ? 

Hi all,  i am planning to buy all the references I need to study for my exam ( structural depth ) but I was wondering if I really need the concrete design for PE civil and SE exams book and the steel design for PE civil and we exam book offered by PPI website ?  I already got the CERM 16th...

Thanks for the information, I forgot about FPE that’s it’s only once a year !  Yes I agree with you , since I just passed the fe last March , maybe it’s better just to stick to civil pe exam rather than switching now to FPE. 

Good morning guys , i have one question to all of you , does it really matter which discipline you go for or not ?  I am asking because I am working in fire protection engineering but I am planning to take the structural depth, why is that ? Because I worked before in seismic design and...

I am interested too please let us know as soon as you create the group ! 

Wow !  I hope they are not the same team who reviews the applications for the PE exam !  I wish you the best of luck and keep us posted if you hear anything from them ! 

That’s true , I even called the NYSED many times before asking :  how long should I expect to hear back & they told me between 4-16 weeks .  I believe within 1 month we both should have the answer .  

After Reviewing some of the comments  on this forum I found myself abit skeptical, because when I described my experiences in the application I was not aware how much it’s important to mention some of the words like design for example . I really hope it won’t be a reason for them to deny my...

They emailed me from the same email you were talking about ( [email protected]) i am not sure if they suppose to send you the day they started the preliminary review or not .  I believe the only reason they contacted me is because they needed the letter which I suppose to send it to them from...

I actually heard from them just last week, they said they started the preliminary reviewing but they asked for a letter describing my work relationship with my indirect supervisor.  I am expecting to hear the answer within 1 month.  I am little bit worried if I don’t get accepted because I...

Hi all, i was adviced to bring with me an engineering dictionary to the PE exam , did any of you agree with this ? And if yes which dictionary you recommend to buy ?  Thanks
