Gut Feeling

[danm9]

i felt pretty good after the test but as each day after passed, i grew less and less confident. but i'd say my gut told me i passed and i did.

I only voted for my most recent attempt at the PE but here's a rundown of my experiences.

1st Time (April 2006): Felt pretty good, thought I probably passed/FAILED

2nd Time (Oct. 2006): Didn't feel as confident as the first time so I'll probably be taking it again/FAILED

3rd Time (Oct 2007): I can't wait to see what color the pencils are in April, didn't even have time to finish/PASSED

I walked out thinking I kicked that things A$$, I only guessed at one problem the entire test, but after time passed I started wondering if I screwed up units or made common mistakes that they created the other answers from. In the end I thought I nailed it and I passed.

I felt reasonably confident leaving the exam. However, I wasn't sure if those feelings were just from being relieved that it's over with or really genuine. I know that I felt much better than I did after the two [horror show] Practice Exams that I took.

Of course, similar to others, as each day passed my self-doubt began to set in. To make it worse, I could barely remember any of the problems when I attempted to sit down and analytically figure out my chances!

Overall, I think (as the poll numbers are showing) that your gut feeling about the exam immediately after completion is worth something.

I was excited after the morning.. i thought i did the BEST i could.. i had about 35 question i was very sure... abt 3 were dicey and 2 complete blind guesses...

Afternoon was slightly tougher.. but i think i was more than sure i got 30+ and rest were guesses..

so i knew i was there.

Seismic was the same, i thought i nailed it..

Surveying was either a miracle of god.. or i got a few guesses correct.. i was too brain dead in surveying to realise how i did..

bottom line is that i passed it at one go...
