October 2019 Post Exam Wait Period - Welcome to the Suck

[bdpalmer]

I haven't seen any of the subtle signs that a relase will happen soon. I would be surprised to see a release late next week or even just before Christmas. 

What are these subtle signs that we should be looking out for?

I think this has the potential to be a long one. Everyone should take a deep breath and take it down a notch.

I haven't seen any of the subtle signs that a relase will happen soon. I would be surprised to see a release late next week or even just before Christmas. 

I don't see it lasting more than 10 weeks for most test takers.

What are the subtle signs that may indicate a release is near????  Did you tell us before and I've just forgotten in my hysteria????

The worst:

Individual approaches and ask about "that big test you took". Smiling expecting to hear you say...."I passed"

You (with no emotion): "The results have not been released yet."

Asking individual: "Oh Wow, That was a awhile ago I would have thought you would know by now."

You (still trying to hold it together, because you know they don't understand the torture): "I know....they say 8-10 weeks"(mad at yourself for using that response)…..you contemplate going into the lengthy analysis of when you think it will be but decide they will think you are crazy. So you say nothing.

Asking individual: "You're smart, I'm sure you passed."  

You stare at them trying to come up with words to describe the RAGE inside you, as you remember the countless hours of studying. 

You in your head:"Just because I am an Engineer doesn't mean I passed the purposefully engineering test made just for engineers. It just means I'm smarting than you."

                                Then you decide it isn't worth it and respond with:  "Thanks, we will see"

You walk away dead inside.

I personally keep an eye on NCEES’s twitter account and the news section of their web site.

I've had this exact interaction with family members, coworkers, other EITs who haven't taken the test... This cuts deep.

Im still betting on a Friday, the 13th release date. Because why not complete the hell cycle. 

 

[RBHeadge PE]

Is that supposed to say you wouldn't be surprised?

Fixed above, thanks.

Stupid auto fill

Then we should have found out like last week if those are signs the release is near

Fixed above, thanks.

Stupid auto fill 

I just wanted to make sure my reading comprehension was correct.  I appreciate your time!

 

[TSLT2010]

Wait, you got a percentage?  I only got number correct...and even then, I feel like I still didn't pass (though I got that green box taunting me, and I don't even need to be a PE at my current job)

Neither do I need to be PE at my current job, sometimes just think that I'm a freaking masochist.

...you'll take him out for an ice cream?

Maybe a froyo, but he better not pick more than 3 toppings is all in saying.

 

[JayKay PE]

Neither do I need to be PE at my current job, sometimes just think that I'm a freaking masochist.

BUT YOU'LL BE A MASOCHIST WITH SOME SWEET LETTERS AT THE END OF YOUR NAME.  It'll really spice up the court documents when you take your show on the road and start inflicting others with PE-damage.

Friday 13th is a good date to get any results

Are you sweating blood yet?  Have your sugars dropped dramatically?  Are you finding it painful to be up during normal hours?

You might be a vampire.
