I would be happy with that I could have no worries, no responsibilities, no obligations just a new mighty ducks episode, a bottle of crystal skull, and the ability to choose from 84 restaurants in the Dover area to choose my drunk munchies from.

I'M TELLING YOU GUYS HES THE PERSON WHO SENDS THE EMAIL!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS WHY I'LL FAIL CAUSE I'VE FIGURED HIM OUT!

That's just strengths the rumor about who sends the emails. Somebody's busy now, I guess!

To PE or not to PE, today's the day!

First things first.

• Do not talk about exam problems here. When the release occurs I'm almost certain someone from NCEES will be monitoring this thread. You really don't want to get your results and then get a nasty-gram from your State board that you violated the candidate agreement and they are going to take action against you.
• No one on this board actually knows when the release will occur.
• No one on the State boards know either.
• There is a general expectation that it will happen today based only on previous April releases. BUT that doesn't mean that it will happen today.
• Please mentally prepare yourselves that it may not happen today.

At some point soon, within the next week or so, all you are going to get that email.

• For many of you it will be a joyous moment, it's your day! Go celebrate! But wait until you have your license number before you add PE after your name.
• For some of you it will not be a pleasant experience. Just remember that this exam doesn't define who you are as a person or your ability to do your job. Don't let it drag you into a dark place. If you were allowed to sit for the exam then you have the ability to pass the exam! Improve your study habits, gain new experience, and kicks its ass in October.

Here's what to do after you get the results.
If you are one of the very first people to get your results, then please drop us a quick note in this thread and try to add a screenshot. If you are the FIRST person to report then you should expect to get a little pushback. Apologies in advanced if others and I seem skeptical, we're just trying to avoid a false alarm.
Everyone should feel free to tell us you passed or not in this thread. We'll all congratulate you and provide reactions as long as we can.
The April 2021 results subforum has been created at:
https://engineerboards.com/forums/april-2021.170/I will have the map thread there. Please post only the State and time of release in that thread. Please leave discussion out of that thread. The first day is pretty chaotic and the lack of distractions really helps me get the map done faster and with limited errors. If someone else has reported your State in that thread then you don't have to report it again.
AFTER YOU GET YOUR RESULTS. Check the subforum and see if anyone has started a thread for your State. If not, please create one for your State and use that thread to talk about the process of getting licensure and all the other milestones in that thread. It makes things a lot easier for future forum readers to find information about your State and its processes and timelines.
Someone who eventually make a thread to report failed scores, and post the Texas pass scores. It's all an attempt to find the mythical cut score. If you are up to it, feel free to contribute. Don't feel compiled! I'm not a "fan" myself. It doesn't actually matter in the scheme of things. At best it can be used for a Pyrrhic victory or do some blood letting. At worst it just enhanced the negative feelings. There is some limited utility in it for future discussions though.

Man. I love it when @RBHeadge PE does a copy+paste dump from previous years. It's like the changing of the seasons.

 

[NJHHEngineer P.E.]

I heard the guy who sends the results email out decided to take a long weekend due to the upcoming holiday. He will return on Tuesday.

so, what you're saying is, not today. hahaha jk

 

[RBHeadge PE]

who else used zzquil to help sleep last night? But in all seriousness, this will probably be one of my least productive days of the year.....

I recommend melatonin. Not habit forming and no drowsiness the next day.
Some people get vivid dreams from it. I'm exclusively lucid dreamer and it took about a week to adjust and get back my ability to have fully lucid dreams.

Well, I was starving on the way into the office and now I'm just so anxious I don't feel like eating.

Relax, take deep breaths. It may not happen today.

I think because his chances are now much slimmer to pass. The CBT isn't easier than the paper format. You actually need to prep and manage your time.

It's a different format that requires a different strategy than P&P. However the pass rates seem to be higher.

It's gotta be today. Where the heck is the Baconator?

we haven't seen him in years

Thank you for all you do, kind sir! I am panicking but I know it’s not the end. Hoping for the best for everyone here! You guys got this

Pikachu didn’t get a PE and his life turned out okay!

 

[RBHeadge PE]

What time usually do results come out?! I know mostly morning, but is it before 10:00 am?

Can someone find my post from a few days ago where I listed all the recent times.
IIRC it was 0900-1330 eastern.

calm down give em 15 minutes to get logged in, their coffee and morning ******** talk to one another out of the way first.

I think there's more truth to this than people realize. When you get down to it, they're just American office workers like the rest of us.

I will sacrifice a few prospective EIT’s to please our master NCEES overlords.

Man. I love it when @RBHeadge PE does a copy+paste dump from previous years. It's like the changing of the seasons.

They've carried me through a couple of exam cycles! I hope everyone appreciates just how much work @RBHeadge PE puts into the WttS forum every exam cycle.

EDIT: I didn't mean to go all Italian Mom on everyone and accuse people of not being grateful. Not my intent! Just a belated thanks on my end.

 

[RBHeadge PE]

@RBHeadge PE What are your magical witchcraft NCEES powers telling you??? Anything today???

see above post

I'm telling you he's the one who sends the email, he's currently preparing the email to be sent and is relishing our messages and fear.

nope

Maybe we were wrong guys? Maybe our results won’t be released until next Tuesday

It's not even 9AM yet. There is still all day tomorrow too.
