OH MY GOD....TURNS OUT THAT I DID NOT PASS IL SE EXAM. I HAD A LICENSE # AND EVERYTHING. I AM SOOOO DISGUSTED WITH THIS WHOLE PROCESS. CTS AND ILDFPR BOTH EFFED UP THE REPORTING PROCESS. I AM SO EMBARRASSED AS WELL NOW I HAVE TO TELL MY EMPLOYER THAT I DIDN'T PASS.

license #'s are posted in IL on ILDFPR website...

kozarrat Looks like you did very well on the AM portions.

I might be interested...I will let you know when I find out my SE results. Don't hold them for me though.

IL seems difficult, no comparison though, since I have only taken it here. Application cost is $100. You first need 3 to 4 years of experience, depending on education specifics. The application is good for 3 years from the time you submit. The exam is only administered at 1 location state wide...

Looks like the Illinois SE board is going to have a 2-day meeting June 19/20. That would be 11 days after June 9 (last day of grading session). To: STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING BOARD Benjamin R. Baer, Chairman David L. Greifzu, Vice-Chairman David R. Bibbs, Member Steven E. Bishop, Member Nancy...

I agree McEngr that the test taker should know how well/poorly they did. But the secrecy of the whole exam process makes the pass/fail line really murky. I wish the whole process had more transparency and accountability, but that will never happen.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has heard something similar to this: multiple choice portion - somewhere around 60% is passing adjusting up or down for the statistical process essay portion - graded on a 0/2/4/6/8/10 basis, 6 is considered minimum competence The key is that you have to pass...

McEngr: sorry I am just now reading this. What information did you find in regards to Layman's question?

Yes, I have passed Vertical and now need to pass Lateral-Bridges.

Thanks for the links ipswitch

hope it is me!

I am really hoping to pass the se exam this april. I need to focus on the lateral bridge exam, specifically Section 3.10.9.4 (Calculation of Design Forces - Zones 3 & 4). I have yet to find a fully comprehensive example for this, which references the new LRFD standards. Also, does anyone...

Layman, Were you able to locate any worthy lateral bridge references to study from for the SE exam?

Finally got my results: Passed Vertical Failed Lateral 20/40 AM - 1 acceptable, 2 unacceptable PM Bridges/IL

I have not gotten my test results back yet. Something is messed up with my account at CTS and they won't let me check my results online. They of course apologize for this. I will be sure to post when I get them.

I feel the same way. However you didn't mention the tremendous cost, delay in your career, and additional time out of your life due to studying and worrying...I agree there should be some sort of accountability. I would prefer for NCEES to post answers so that a test taker would LEARN how to...

same here, hopefully I at least passed the vertical and then I can focus on lateral for April
