The media is blowing it into proportion, more like.

Hell nah.

We will see but gathering of hundreds of people is not a small risk..

Is this the Detroit test site? If so, what would you estimate the number of people that got together there?

In general I get the impression that CA is more prestigious from people.

I never had an issue with TSA (2 checked in bags of books). Pack carefully though, some of my books were slightly damaged (not a big deal). Make sure after checking in you confirm the suitcases will go to your final destination. Losing the suitcases would suck for sure (didn't happened to me)...

Timing is important and that ship has sailed. I don't think your boss owes you anything as most engineers that took this test likely still worked a full 40 hours week, including me, and having to study outside of work. Focusing too much on your co workers is not helping you. I wouldn't waste any...

Horizontal curve and vertical curve are very important topics, you need to master those.

It sucks, but there was a time you had to wait as long as the NCEES 8-hour exam -_-

I'd bet against Fridays :)

The 9th edition seems to have a lot more materials, and is up to date with the current codes for April 2020. I was able to find a good deal on eBay but yeah, expensive stuff especially when there's many other expenses to this exam.

STERM = SERM? If not, what is it? i.e., SE Structural Engineering Reference Manual by Alan Williams.

So who's taking this class? Starting next Sunday! I'm looking thru the materials (my first try) and am at a loss while reviewing the PM stuff. No way I can put together all that work in an hour -_-;;;;

Re-filing is basically instant approval upon the Board receiving it, assuming you fill out the refill form properly and your check does not bounce. Make sure to do it immediately after getting the failed results and you’re good.

A couple things: 1) Take the exams at the end of the month for more studying time and less wait time for results. 2) Don't take it in the last month of the quarter because if you fail you obviously won't re-file in time to take it in the next quarter (have to skip a quarter).

I’m not holding my breath here 😬

The way I see it, passing the first time or the 10th time shows you are at that same "competent" level. There is no way to prove which person is the "better" engineer at the time of passing. While first time passers have more time to accumulate experience while being licensed, people who...

Yeah should be ok with Reza and EET, just keep solving problems. Good luck!

Ok I can't speak to his course as I just self-studied with his book.. I assume the course would be better as you will have him there to explain everything.. Have you checked out CPESR?

The wait was 2 weeks for me, I think that's towards the long end.
