Yes, it is a mixed strategy that is required depending on the individual exam taker's learning mode, muscle memory, experiential knowledge. Some topics need less work than others. Also interest in certain topics can help retention. Overtabbing can also lead to over-reliance on the reference...

Thank you Be-n for the clarification. I agree this is not a walk in the park exam.

"....unless you read a problem and was like I got it, not worth my time." @Be-n, I am not clear on what is meant. Do you mean it's okay to not actually crank out the solution for problems in the binder that one feels he/she can be comfortable doing in the exam based on having tacked that kind of...

Thanks TDW. Much appreciated.

Can those who took AEI courses and passed share your experiences with regard to the level of difficulty in the actual exams compared to the AEI binder sample problems, sample exams, both breadth and depth portions? Did you do all the problems in the binders?

Keep up the fight.

Good luck.

Last year there was an extended thread on steel beam design, more particularly Table 3-10, Lb etc etc. (forget that digression on Table 3-6). The main question was what constitutes Lb, whether a steel decking would meet the requirements of continuous bracing and satisfy requirements of Appendix...

The 70s and 80s were very different from even the next generation SEI and II format. They were just one 4 hour problem vertical and one 4 hour problem lateral. But from what I gathered, the pass rate was abysmal, in the 15 to 20% range.

Not sure, but I think it was late 90s or early 2000. I met an SE who got his SE in that old set up. He told me he could not imagine getting his SE license under the new set up.

Similar in some ways, but very different in other ways. One, there was choice. You could select the problem you want to answer. Two, you had to answer only two 2 hour problems each in AM and PM sessions out of 4 I think. IMO each of the new SE exam essay problems is not far off from the 2 hour...

@squaretaper LIT AF PE. GET SOME CLASS

Hi all, No one even sent kudos to this astrologer for predicting 11 June morning as the big moment from the day the October exam registration was announced and 4 or 5 times since. Rodney Dangerfield's " No respect". Kevo, where is my $20? More seriously, this morning was a roller coaster...

Guys and Gals, my Board just told me they have received the results from NCEES. It is just a wait for an email from NCEES.

Trying to read his lips. Is he saying "Oh, that sucks"?

https://ncees.org/october-2021-exam-administration-updates/ No change to June 14 start of registration for October exam. Rest my case. Check your mail.

Results notice is in the MyNCEES page. So it has to be simultaneous.
