This is amazing news! Congrats, I'm so happy for you!!

I have an MS Engineering Management and my state board did not accept it. I tried to appeal but was still denied.

Wow spoken just like someone with a power complex. Why would you admit that the test is too difficult? Then you'd be admitting to the massive scam you so graciously financially benefit from. Like I've said before, when you put an organization in power as a professional gate keeper, they can do...

Congrats!! Super excited for you! I was in the same boat. My journey started in late 2019 and I finally passed construction in June after 4 attempts. Way to stick it out!

I'm so sorry to hear about your test! Please keep trying, I know you can do it! It may be time to consider taking a week or two off to give yourself a brain break. It's kind of like when your team is down by 10 points and all of a sudden no one can make a layup and everyone is fumbling the...

This is absurd. I've said it before and I'll say it again, it makes absolutely no sense that a for-profit organization has this much control over the professional development of a career field. You look at these numbers and it's clear to anyone who actually cares about the general outcome that...

Sending good vibes your way! Your assessment feels promising 🙂

CONGATS!! That's amazing!

That's a huge bummer. I thought it was just because of the CBT. Why would new owners get rid of the senior members? They brought a lot of good posts and traffic to the site. Very unfortunate.

Looks like I'm a little late to seeing your post. Let us know how it went!

That's great! You hard work is showing! I have also heard that they mix up morning and afternoon, but I feel that is actually a myth. I think that there are some questions that "come from the breadth" in the afternoon because there are topics that are covered in both the morning and afternoon...

Do you have/are you familiar with the PCA book? I have found that a lot of those concrete related conceptual problems come out of there. The book is full of so much info. I'm sorry to hear about your test. I know the feeling. But I'll say that I took the test 4 times. The 4th test was CBT and...

Your current managers can sign off on your experience too. I moved to a new job and started working under a different PE. The signed for my past experience and it wasn't an issue at all. But I would reach out to your state board for these kinds of questions. My board was very helpful and...

@Pra4surf1 I'm really sorry to hear about your test and the venue loosing power. It can be really devastating to work so hard towards a date and then have something random happen and not be able to even finish the exam. I wanted to let you know that I am very familiar with your current...

Thank you! I had to take the exam several times so it was a huge relief. Just know your resources! They could ask you a bunch of easy questions but if you don't really know your resources then you will waste time or miss easy points. They can also ask you nothing out of the resources but better...

I agree with playtapus engineer. I grabbed my undergrad statics book and just ran through a bunch of problems. It really paid off.

Thanks for the reply! I actually ended up passing the exam in June :) Appreciate your response!

They skip too many steps for me. I found the angle first and then used the angle to solve for my max x distance once the boom is touching A. Hope this helps

I'm having a hard time differentiating between the "axial force in the brace" and "horizontal component". The calculation is not difficult, but I seem to be mixing them up. To me, the axial force is F and the horizontal component is Fcos (x). But the problem below says the horizontal component...

@John123 Congratulations on your great accomplishment! What units were on the exam? I am asking because I am currently working through practice tests and I am noticing that some tests are heavy on the kN, m^3, kPA and others are just US units. I have taken the paper PE exam and never came...
