Got an email today asking to fill out a survey. Should I email them back and state that I have completed the survey............... and will send them the results in 10 weeks? :-)

What did you guys think? My first time sitting for the exam. Harder than the NCEES practice exam I thought. I had struggled to find the MUTCD stuff, however I eventually found everything. Stuglled with another "look up" problem and checked another reference and found it. That cost me a...

Well, how did you do? I thought the exam was harder than the NCEES practice exam and Mike's morning practice exam. I was very happy with my preparation and was glad that I studied so much. I did a very poor job with time management, but when it is all said and done I think I'm looking at a...

Min clear zone on a low speed rural collector and rural local road is most nearly: I said 10' which was correct, however I can not find the langauge the answer refers to anywhere in the Green Book. I'm wondering if this is a case of the current green book differs from the edition that was used...

Problem #70 of 6 min solution- transportation. Two lans of a freeway have a capacity of 4200vph. Normal flow is 3100vph. An accident occurs and blocks traffic for 10 minutes. After 10 mins, both lanes are open back up. How long does it take for traffic to break up? Convert flow to...

I talked to someone today who stated she had friends that got their score when they passed. I thought if you passed you just got a congrats, but if you fail they break it down. I asked her twice and she is positive. Does it differ from State to State? She did mention some states except the...

Pretty straightforward except I notice when one end is very small or zero, the examples don't use the truncated pyramid for that section. The NCEES practice exam was this way as well. No big deal I guess.

Runoff from a subdivision is collected in a basin then released at 43 CFS through a circular corrugated metal pipe. ( n=0.025) The pipe slope is 0.001ft/ft Find the diamter (ft) of the pipe that should be used to deliver the flow. A. 3 B. 5 C. 6 D. 18 I ran out of time yesterday and...

Full mock up today. 71/80 Had 20 minutes to spare in the am, basically guessed on one last question in pm. Now, I'm spent. I can surely see light at the end of the tunnel now. My study strategy seemed to pay off. I have done so many geometric design problems I have just about every formula...

Anybody here purchase this? I have thought about pulling the trigger as this is the only depth manual around with the current NCEES references listed. I think I'm in good shape, but it would be nice to have a professional layout that references the updated reference material. Thanks

I have searched for updates, but dont see any. In the CERM and the Goswami depth reference section, they state Warrany #4 requires gaps in the traffic stream to be less than 60 per hour. They also state you need ped volume of greater than 190 peds per hour. I dont see that language either...

Early on in my preparation I remember doing a problem where the radius of curve was required. Easy problem and when I checke the answer I was wrong because, the intersection anle was 90 degrees and the explanation was when the I is 90 or greater the radius is found using...... For the life of...

4th edition- 2nd printing Problem ask to recomend a rate of superelevation. Because all the sample material out there and reference books use the 2004 green book I want to double check my method. Question ( not word for word) Circular curve is designed as part of a 2 lane rural highway...

Problem ask for saturation flow rate in a 4 way intersection. Pretty straightforward execpt the new 2010 HCM makes things interesting. Looks like the formula in the 2010 HCM has changed for lane width adjustment. Exh. 18-13 gives an adjustment factor for lane width fw of 1.0 for lanes between...

I took Mike's Civil PE Guide morning exam this past weekend. Compared to the Gowami and Lindberg exams, this was a walk in the park. I believe I have read that aside from the NCEES sample exam, Mike's exam guide is really close to what I will see. You all agree? I scored 34 out of 40. The...
