The mechanical guy sitting next to me gave me this horrifying look while I flipped books in the air left and right. He had the MERM and one other book.

I studied with a Mechanical and he had 3 books, while I took a cart into the test for all the references.

Just got off the phone with the NJ Board.  Said the results will be posted to NCEES tomorrow 12/13.  Correspondence from the NJ Board will follow 2 weeks later.  Gods speed.

Oh yeah them Mech-y. I was next to one also. I actually bought 2 cinder blocks with me and flipped them vertical to make a spot next to my desk. No proctor told me anything. 

Like CMU blocks? haha youre a real one!!

Just spoke with someone at the Missouri board and she said they were trying to get them released now.

I literally had a grocery cart full and overflowing with references and used all but maybe one book for my Transportation. I also took the practice problems/books with solutions which helped on a few problems that were almost identical. 

Honestly was a little worried the flimsy table would collapse if I was too careless with putting my books down.

The Transportation people had soooo many references.  I felt so under prepared in comparison.  

I had a suitcase and a backpack full of books for my transportation PE.

Mississippi people: try to find yourself on the license lookup. It's been known to work in the past.

Have been trying that since this morning. No dice. I either failed, or the license search is not updated yet.

1st attempt Failed Civil Structural in south carolina....april 2020 lets go!!! registering today

got 43 right out of the 80 total

Admire your drive.  Go get em'! .. 22/40 on structural and you basically performed almost as well as the average passing examinee.  It seems cut score for structure was probably right around 25

I read a post early this morning about someone contacting LAPELS and they telling results will be out today very soon.....This is the longest "very soon" !!!

For real though. I just signed up for the April 2020 exam.... I failed october 2019. my thought was it is kind of still on my mind. Should I wait until October 2020 or take it again right away. Any input would be appreciated from others that have failed. 

I took Civil transportation

I had to take it twice, and I felt better with things still fresh in my mind. Took them back to back. Part of the test is how comfortable you are navigating through a myriad of problems. I like to get things out of the way especially since I'm a ball of anxiety. 

If you decide to do it in April, just be sure to give yourself a long deserved break. I gave myself about 1 months to unwind when I didn't pass the first time.

Just got off the phone with LAPELS... They are saying they have been released. So the ball is in NCEES's court?

I heard structural is a tough one. I got 46/80 on Transportation and failed. We'll get it the 2nd time around

 

[BIG OOF]

Should we create a database of PE exam discipline and failing scores to get a better understanding of the 'cut score'?

Good job, but I think we have been bothering them like crazy today. No more free lunch from them during the test anymore.

I had a board game book bag and a normal book bag filled with books. My wife said it was over the top. I did not want to get a question and know it was in a book and not have that book.
