I would still be sure to bring an air pollution book with you to the exam. When I took the exam, I remember one question where they listed the equation by name that was to be used to calculate the answer. The equation wasn't in PPI reference manual, but I found it easily in the index of my air...

Well, that method doesn't seem to account for the differences in weights for each category. Each category has a different weight according to the exam specs listed at the link below: http://www.ncees.org/exams/professional/pe..._exam_specs.pdf Since there are 100 questions, the percentages...

If you find these types of stories fascinating, you should totally read the meeting minutes of the Oregon board and the Law Enforcement Committee. The cases regarding surveyors are pretty boring IMHO but the engineering ones are very informative. They give me a better understanding of how the...

I apologize for not remembering how old mini-Buff is, but could she be affected by a change in hormone levels with respect to having a baby? I've never given birth so I can't say how that affects hormone levels, but I do know that changes in hormone levels (whether synthetic or natural) can...

You're right IlPadrino, there are worse things in this world to be concerned about and its good to be reminded of this to keep things in perspective. But its also not fair for those of us who already have our PEs to tell those who are still waiting for their results that a few weeks/months...

Meeting minutes must be approved by the board before they are posted, so at today's meeting, they had to approve the meeting minutes from May. So, hopefully sometime in the next week or so, the May board minutes will be posted, and after the meeting in Sept, the July minutes will be posted...

I was curious if the Rules & Regulations committee had any propsed/pending rules regarding re-application deadlines. Looks like they are proposing a rule to prohibit what nojo did. Link is here The previous meeting minutes (link here) also specifically mentioned this scenario and...

Yes, they meet in Salem every other month (committees meet every other month that the board doesn't meet). Here is the link to the meeting notice for today's meeting. http://www.oregon.gov/OSBEELS/docs/Board/N...otice200907.pdf The notices are supposed to be posted a week before the meeting -...

I'm pretty sure they don't allow this any longer. I've kept up on reading the board minutes and it seems like this issue always comes up after the exam results come out - someone will go to the board and petition to be allowed to re-take the exam because the results came out after the deadline...

I wonder if they are having problems with their mail merge system - If I were used to having a system that automatically entered everything into the letters, I would expect it to take 1 or 2 days to process all of the results. If that system suddenly stopped working (after thinking it would...

One of my friends called OSBEELS to get more info. Apparently they have all of the results, and they are already entered into the computer BUT they said they are typing the notice letters up and it takes a while so she said people will receive the letters in the mail in the next 3-4 weeks...

I saw Transformers 2 last night, I was prepared for a horrible movie and was pleasantly surprised its wasn't as bad as I expected. I mean, there's absolutely no plot, but there were some funny parts (the mom was hilarious!) and the action was awesome. I thought it was too long and had too many...

Historically, the board does not have to meet before sending out the results. I believe that once they receive the results, they enter them into the database at the same time they print and mail the letters out. The last test was an exception for two reasons (so I've heard) 1) because they ran...

Last year, it took a few weeks to update the database because they were switching to a new computer system, in other years, it was updated the same day they mailed letters, ie - you could find your results the same day they mailed the letters out, (the day before you received the letter) I know...

Congratulations everyone! :multiplespotting: Hey, what kind of pumps & piping do you do? I work for a consulting firm doing water/wastewater design, including pumps and piping, so I'm curious.

I regularly read the meeting minutes from OSBEELS and I have never seen anything where they wait until after the board meeting to release the results. They do notify by snail mail, but majority of the previous years, the database was updated on the same day letters were sent out. Last year was...

Happy Birthday! :beerchug:

Wow, I am so glad I didn't know about this site until after I passed. Reading topics like this would have driven me crazy while I was waiting for my results! Good luck everyone! For some of you, the wait is almost over!

we have Verizon FiOS. Internet is way faster than comcast but the cable is equal or worse than comcast. The comcast DVR interface is better than verizon IMO and there are a few sports channels we don't get in HD now (that we used to get in HD with comcast). We invited a bunch of friends over...
