When was this exam held?

Edit: Apparently it is held "continuously". I wonder what that means for when they release those exams. See here: http://www.bpelsg.ca.gov/applicants/exam_schedule.shtml

I have a feeling CA specific exams will follow next week..... ?

Hmm, I wonder, is the CA PLS exam paper based or computer based? It was administered by NCEES on April 18th, so three days before the PE exam. I don't want to make any assumptions about that bearing on the PE exam results, especially because the PE exam is taken throughout the country and the CA PLS exam is only taken in CA, thus has a much smaller pool of test takers. But still! It's exciting that they are released results for others taking these sorts of exams!

The California state PLS is CBT and has been since Spring 2012.  It is offered across the entire country on 1 day, twice a year.

This is the CA PLS, but the national PS Exam (CBT) is continuous, is that correct?

Yes, the national PS exam provided by NCEES is also CBT, but administered on a continuous basis throughout the year.  Results are released every Wednesday for the exams taken from the proceeding 7 days.

Historically, do they release exam (national or survey/seismic) results before or after the board meeting?

I have no clue, unfortunately. I never paid attention to this before.

Iowa met last year on May 19, but did not discuss exam results, and again in July - much after the release.
