I do not recommend the NSPE/MGI/Cognistar review course. All you get are a couple binders with so-so notes, you work on practice problems and exams, then you send them in for grading. You're better off with the "new generation" of test prep (DTC, EngProGuides, Slay, etc.).Yeah, reviewing my options.

Awesome post & great information!I highly recommend the DTC course but you're going to have to supplement it with other sources. Read my recent post, it's long but I hope it saves you the headache of having to take the exam more than once like I did.
Good luck to you !
You're welcome man... if you have questions once you start studying feel free to reach out to me. I'm glad to help another fellow engineer pass this exam the FIRST time...I'd recommend you start hitting the books in early July.Awesome post & great information!
At the end of the course there is a refresher quizz for the earlier weeks...I recommend that in addition to that, you keep doing problems from the earlier chapters to keep things fresh as you said... good luck studying !Well, how is everybody's studying coming along? I'm still plugging away with Dr Tom's review. I feel like i'm getting familiar with the MERM, so that makes me feel a bit better. I can tell that i'm going to need to go back over the early weeks again to keep things fresh.
I don't have my NCEES booklet with me at the moment, but i'll go back and see if I've already worked this one. With just the description you outlined, it seems to be a combined loading problem. Bending and torsional shear?I am taking the MDM exam on Oct 2018. Starting preparation with MERM and NCEES practice exam. I have few questiosn:
How difficult the real exam, compare to the NCEES practice exam? I took the practice exam and I feel very comfortable. I am able to solve most of the problems. I am wondering if the real one will be the same level.
I have specific question about Question 123. In the solution to the 123 problems, the secondary shear stress is shows as anti-clock direction. I hope it is it other way. I beleive the answer should be (A) the 1 bolt. Anyone who worked out that problem can help me?

expect it.Can anyone comment on the average time after the exam to find out if you passed or failed? MERM states 8-10 weeks, hoping they aren't that incredibly slow in grading a scantron.
Definitely not 8-10 weeks, my experience after taking the exam multiple times was that the wait was between 6-7 weeks, I am in California so please take that into consideration.Can anyone comment on the average time after the exam to find out if you passed or failed?
