I took the EIT two times. I took the PE two times. I took Seismic two times. I took Survey two times. Funny thing is, I tell people this and they assume that I didn't really try on my first attempt, they assume I was just taking the test to see how it's like. But no, I actually REALLY tried...

To be fair, there were a lot of Holidays recently...

For Seismic: I used the Hiner workbook. Studied 2-3 hours everyday after work (with 1 day break). Studied ~5 hours on Saturday and ~5 hours on Sunday. Did this for 5 weeks. Passed. For Survey: I used the Reza workbook. Studied exactly the same hours and duration as above. Passed.

I've always known the "cut score" to be 52/80. I never seen a 52+ person fail...but I would love to see examples of it (if it exists).

Is Texas still the only state that tells you your diagnostics even if you Passed?

Have you ever considered that maybe sarcasm and ridicule is how some people cope with the anxiety? When I see those type of posts, I actually laugh a bit and it makes me look at things a little less seriously, which in turn makes me less anxious.

I've never seen this level of results anxiety before

I was returning from a job site with my co-workers. We were in a van on the highway. I was on the passenger seat when I got the notification and ultimately saw the good news. I was so excited that I started shaking my co-worker who was the driver. In that moment, I was  too excited to remember...

You have to go to the BPELSG website. NCEES only covers the PE exam.

I used Hiner workbook to pass Seismic. I self studied it all. Studied for 1.5 months. Took me 2 tries to pass and I'm pretty sure I barely passed. I hear EET is better for Seismic. I used Reza workbook to pass Survey. I self studied it all. Studied for 1 month. Took me 2 tries to pass. I didn't...

We all know you're still gonna check everyday ;)  

This happened to me as well. I passed my last exam on Nov 7, the cycle updated on ~Nov 12 but they didn't get to my name. My name appeared on the following cycle which was on Nov 21.

Strange... but o well, the name on DCA website and paper certificate is all you need :)! Technically the name on the DCA website is all you need , cuz that means its official.

I got my temporary pocket certificiate, name on DCA website and congratulatory email all within 1 month. But the paper certificate itself took 1.5 months to get. So I think you still got like 2 weeks before you get the paper certificate. Or you may get it before then.

Ya'll need to meditate 😆

Yeah it's usually 1-2 weeks. Mine was exactly 2 weeks. I found out I passed both Seis+Surv on Nov 7. Showed up in the system on Nov 21.

Lol dang... Well I was thinking more in terms of Seismic I guess. For survey, 2 of the categories have a 35% weight, so i guess it would make sense to fail if you got deficient in one of those 2 categories. gl this time

I kinda believe that too... but I never heard of someone getting only 1 def and still fail.

Technically when I got my results, the seismic and survey didn't come out at the same time. There was a 1 hour gap between them. I don't think they are ever released at EXACTLY the same time. Usually there's a 1 hour-3 hour gap. I don't think it's worth it to put times but that's just my thoughts.
