    Lol! Those are meant to be bombed, no? I mean have they ever served as a source of anything but demotivation?

    How's the prep coming along guys?! Frustrated? excited? nervous? I for one can't wait to get done with it now! Exactly 2 weeks and a couple hours from now (if you're from California), we'd have conquered this demon 😂

    PE Civil Structural 2018 - October 2018 - California

    Hey Guys, October 2018 will be my second attempt at the PE Civil Structural after having done well in the AM and royally screwing up the PM in the April 2018 cycle. I think I put in around 300-350 hours of self study (No review courses) spread out over 5.5 months and still came out...
