I took the exam Oct'07 and didn't get the results until Christmas Eve. That year they announced an NCEES grading issue and said that it was taking longer than normal. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! Mark

I received my FL results by mail 1 day after 8 weeks after the October exam. It was a very merry Christmas. That was a huge relief but I found the 4 week wait for the number even worse. I did get the number on my birthday, which was a nice present. For some reason the mail runs a little...

Wow!! I didn't think of bringing a fridge. I just brought a couple of granola bars.

It's officially official. I got my wall certificate today. Man it is big!

Well, totally unexpected, I got a raise. I got a $4k per year raise in November that was timely (it had been over a year since my last raise) and all the boss knew was that I had taken the exam. Nothing happened after I found out that I passed, the end of year bonus was even smaller than last...

Gosh, I thought I was last!! I just checked the DBPR site and there have been three more #'s issued since mine on Tuesday. Unfortunately, the person you need to speak to at the FBPE (Brian Lynch) takes a long time to return phone calls, if he ever does. All I can really say is be persistent...

It was a good day all around. For my Birthday I went diving near Branford in a beautiful cave system that has so far become my favorite. I should also post in the other thread that my present to myself for passing was a drysuit (I'm thermally challenged and was getting cold in a 7mil wetsuit)...

I guess somebody had to be last. I decided to give Mr. Lynch until noon to return my calls before going over his head and asking what was going with my number. No call so I tried again and asked the receptionist to please not put me into his voicemail but pick me up again if he didn't answer...

Anybody have any insight as to what it means that discipline is the only category that has not been cleared to complete? I just called the FBPE the woman I was speaking to asked if there had been any discipline charges filed against me. I answered how could there be discipline charges against...

Everything but discipline just went complete on my application status lookup

Great! :mad: She was probably having a crappy day and the fact that she had to answer your call probably made it worse. She's probably thinking "I'll fix those nerdy college kids. Sniff, Snort, Cough, Hack I'm going home early. And I I'll probably be sick tomorrow too." Jump for...

Shoot Man!!! I went and quit my job based on your prediction. I had planned on ordering my seal overnight and be on my own come monday morning. Now what am I supposed to do? :suicide1: Weeeeeel not really. But I will be independent by the end of the month. I should be able to get enough...

School of PE. Passed first time. I started studying in July on my own I think would have been ready for the April Exam, not October. The class concentrated the topic into one weekend and I used the time until the next class to just work problems. Someone taking the exam closer to then time...

Amazing. I had the same upgrade path as you: 15C to 28S to 48sx. I also have one of the little thermal printers. While I had the 28S (~1988?) I found an original 35 in a thrift store for $8 that worked. I sold it on ebay in 1998 for $198. My experience was the same with the 33S. I used it...

Thank you to everyone who contacted me regarding the books. They have been sold. :thankyou:

I had my middle daughter (age 10) read the questions to me. I was able to answer a lot of them, but after we got through about 20 in each catagory I just gave up and went back to raeding and solving problems. I never did go through the whole box. It would have been better to have questions...

Sorry. Duplicate Post

I have been using RPN for about 20 years. I constantly screw up when I use an algebraic calculator so the 33 was my only choice with RPN. I was pissed that I wasn't able to take my 48sx. Not that I wanted to program it, I've just been using it for the past 15 years and don't even have to...

I agree with TXengrChickPE. I bought them because they were cheap and the concept had potential. But there really wasn't anything on the exam that studying the cards helped with. I think the cards may be more useful for studying for college exams (200 & 300 level courses). I bought them...

I had a lot of catching up to do. I graduated in 1993 and spent almost all but the last four years in fields that had absolutely nothing to do with engineering. I started in July and spent about 330 hours studying including about 75 hours in the SPE Review Course. I passed the...
