    CA PE Application w/ COVID

    I think they say to expect 60 days from reciept for them to review. I went through the whole process pre-covid.

    Civil PE Licensure Questions- Education and Work Experience related to Surveying

    I thought it was two years of qualifying Civil experience. I was an ME but they asked me specifically to validate the two years of Civil experience. (I am now a Civil PE, so i recently went through the process)

    Passed all Tests. Haven't heard from CA BPELSG

    This seems like such a common question. In my opinion, the board should charge a little more on all of their fees and upgrade their system instead of this manual opaque process- more akin to the NCEES website. I’m sure it is not cheap but this is the new millenium. Paper checks as the only...

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    Huh, i thought you could not take seismic and surveying unitl you recieved an Authorization To Take (ATT) the exams from the board after applying. Go figure. You are talking about civil, right?

    Q2 2021 Post-Surveying Exam Thoughts

    I was in the same situation. I passed on second. I bought reza and cpesr. If i had to buy one, i’d say reza. Find many more practice exams and do them timed. i will say the cost to retest is nearing the cost of a 2nd course, so you may consider doubling up and ensure you pass on the first. I...

    Every other Friday, i believe. So the next would be 7/16.

    Everything you wanted to know about the CA-Survey/Seismic Civil PE Exams

    I agree on the timing. I got really good at learning how to take that test- not surveying. If it was really important, they should have a practical where you had to do an actual traverse, and calculate something. The logistics of this seem hard however but the process of applying and getting...

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I feel for you. It sucks. You are not alone. My last test was cancelled 3 times and invalidated once and took at least 9 mo too long during COVID. I finally got my # last week. I think they issued 100+ so i think they are indeed trying to catch up. However, I do agree the ENTIRE process is...

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    I get it. It was a super long process for me but I am finally done. It looks like they issued 130 licenses on 7/2 and part of that group luckily. (92690-92821) so seems they are making effort to get caught up.

    Technical review additional information

    That worked for me, too

    Technical review additional information

    I had to resubmit myself since i had a not normal civil experience. Just be more clear that from this timeframe to that timeframe you did x, y civil acitivities and it adds up to two years (you may need to prove you were under the purview of a civil pe in that timefrmame— i was)

    License Number Assignments (California PE)

    Sorry to hear- so aggravating. It looks like about 50 Civil numbers were assigned on Friday. Hopefully yours will be the next 2 weeks

    CA Civil Surveying Exam - Study Recommendation

    Same- i used CPESR and Reza. The cost of retaking a test is approaching the cost of an additional course. So just get both courses, take the test once. If you take both, you will be prepared. Each course had strength and weaknesses. If had to pick one, it would be Reza.

    BEST Review Courses/Materials for someone with ZERO Seismic/Survey Background

    I was an ME and was exposed to civil only at the workplace- enough to qualify my experience. I took Excel for NCEES, Hiner for seismic (1st time), and Reza for surveying (2nd Time). I finally passed all. I would not highly recommend Excel- the afternoon materials were pretty poorly laid out but...

    CA Civil Surveying Exam - Study Recommendation

    I had the exact same experience. I was an ME and never had a surveying class. I took the test twice with CPESR and went nuclear and got the Reza class and passed on the third. (Sorry, Kirk). I passed seismic 1st time with Hiner.
