I don't think there's a need to study the one-off questions like aluminum and post tensioned. Make sure you study the areas that are going to get 3-5+ questions and guess at the ones you have no exposure to. Worked for me.

Just an FYI but the 15th edition just came out. If you're going to buy an AISC manual get this one and borrow the 14th from a colleague for the exam. 

You went 23 AM & 19 PM. It's my opinion that the morning session is pretty plug and chug if you have the CERM and watch your units/work. Nail the easy questions in the AM and score at least 30 there and buckle down on your design/use of codes for the afternoon and you've got it in the bag.

Hey I tried, I recommend PM'ing leggo

I just took and passed the Civil/Structural in April using the 14th edition. I completely feel there is no reason to buy a new edition at 2-3 times the cost. All of the principles haven't changed a bit and any code reference questions you'll be using the actual code for not the CERM. I used the...

I personally feel like scanning through the questions is a waste of precious time. I prefer to try all of the questions skipping only those I know will be a real struggle or guess, that'd be about 5 per session. If it's an easy question you can answer it whether it's question 40 and you went in...

PEStampsandSeals.com had great pricing with a FREE electronic seal from now until June 30th! They sent my electronic seal within an hour of ordering.

On the contrary I used the CERM almost exclusively for the Breadth section and only used 2 Das books in addition. It just goes to show you how everyone's methods can be completely different but yield good results.  

Georgia really requires an SE to practice? That's not what it shows on the NCSEA site. http://www.ncsea.com/resources/licensure/

This post might help you. This person passed the Apr-17 Structural Depth

Cool story bro

70 hours/Pass/Structural

Structural PM I used only the CERM for the morning and did not study for it. I only read through and highlighted the geotech section. I believe using the index is all you need when you read the problems properly and keep track of units. I read through the structural section of the CERM twice...

You must be on cloud 9 now with a pass in hand and (hopefully now) a healthy baby

Hey there, first off let me say you can and will nail this exam in October. My recommendations are as follows: Morning session: You can easily score 35/40 in the morning without studying and utilizing the CERM. Every question must be ready carefully for to be sure you are fully understanding...

I kind of feel like you're knowingly bragging right here. I think it's widely known and accepted that most engineers regardless of field/industry do not get near 6 figures in their first 6 years of working. So I don't believe you find it shocking that everyone else here isn't in your same position. 

lol 6 figures, I'm barely halfway there.

At least in Pennsylvania, EIT is a license so there's no need to remove it from your resume, etc. It may not hold much weight but still.

I checked in this morning in hopes to hear that you passed RockyTop! Big congrats! Enjoy your weekend!

Andddd I'm calling it quits for the work week, time for beers!
