My guess would be yes...it would seem to be the only logical way to "Equate the scores".

@SDB, no need to post the same thing four times... Please let me know if you'd like your three additional posts deleted.

 

[SDB]

Sorry, not sure what happened...please delete!

 

[leggo PE]

@SDB, it's okay! They're gone now. I figured they probably weren't on purpose!

To all those waiting for results.... Spend some time and relax on the spam board! Results are unlikely to be released until it's goal is reached, so really, it's in your best interest to join in the fun.

First time exam taker here....Civil Geotech...I failed. And I felt well prepared. The PM session was not what I was expecting nor was much of it part of the PPI or NCEES practice exams. So I will study more and retake it in April and hope to never go through this again!! LOL I didn't do too bad in all reality, but it wasn't good enough to pass.

Thanks, I will print that out and bring it next time. I had both Coduto books (Geotech Eng and Foundations) which were also pretty useful. Anything else from FHWA that you found particularly useful?

If you have  Adobe Pro you  can delete any unnecessary  pages. I did that while  was waiting  for  My exam results.

Thank you.

Not all students are the same, therefore standardized tests are impractical. Albert Einstein once said, “Everyone is a genius, but if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
