Just found out that I failed the seismic exam. I am discouraged because I thought I did better compared with how I felt after the surveying exam (still waiting for those official results). In general I am a terrible test taker. I had to take the 8-hour exam twice before passing too. 

How many times did you take/retake each exam? How did you stay motivated to keep going after failing? 

 
@Gstei DO NOT GIVE UP! 
 

I passed the 8 hour on my second attempt and I passed seismic on my third! 
This is also my third attempt for survey! (Hope results come out in the next hour!) 

It can be very discouraging but know that you aren’t alone. Keep pushing through and you’ll come out on top! 

 
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 my first time too lol. I stay motivated because I really want that freaking PE license, it looks so good.
