But all that said... I passed!!! Wooohooo! Amazingly.... 😅

Passed Mechanical: TFS!!! (For reference, this is a bit of a surprise as I studied 0 (zero) hours... this was probably a close one. My review of how the exam "felt" is linked below.)  

What's the fewest number of states that have ever released on the first day? We're only at 12 so far... it's been 29 and 40 for the last two administrations (I don't have the table the shows this data at hand--link, anyone?).

It looks like in October 2018, fully 29 states released on the first day... in April 2018, it was 40 states (!!) on the first day. Do they stop releasing at COB? At just 12 states so far today, we're either going to see a massive dump in the next 90 minutes or there will be a lot more Day 2...

Is there a typo in that URL?

This is the longest "lunch break" ever.

Congrats! You took TFS then, I assume? I teach undergrad aerodynamics, but that is waaaay less useful for the PE exam, unfortunately. 

I just had the following convo with Keshia. Exams are graded!   Keshia Weston1:19 pmHello [ME]. How may I help you? [ME] Hi Keshia I have a question, I took the PE exam in April, and I was just wondering, are results soon to be released, perhaps this week? Keshia Weston Results are being...

I vote yes. 35 days.

I did this basically (came up with a range from 52-60, so that wasn't SO comforting), but why are you assigning guessing a 10% EV? Should be 25% right? With 12 guesses you'd expect to get 3 right, not 1, which would push you right up to 60/80.

I'm at a classified meeting all week so luckily I can only subject myself to checking email at lunch and coffee break. Enforced phone-free time!

The two sides of that equation don't cancel?

The only one I remember is one that I definitely got wrong: a particular symbol that wasn't one of the ones in the MERM (or rather, was, but wasn't quite the same so I convinced myself it was different.) Guessed between the two plausible (to me) answers, and picked the wrong one. That one I was...

I managed to just about forget about this for nearly a month, but now I can feel the urge to know rising! Are cut scores really as low as 52 sometimes?? For the Mechanical TFS? Maybe I have a decent chance after all. I think my score is somewhere in the 52-60 range, but of course hard to say...

I managed my time very poorly in the AM and got, optimistically, 24-28 I'd say, including educated guesses (as opposed to WAGs) as perhaps 50% chance of being correct. The last 8 questions left I answered pretty randomly in the AM, and many before that were rushed too. Oh yeah, also my Casio...
