October 2019 Post Exam Wait Period - Welcome to the Suck

[hardhatsandpinkshoes]

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

My personal opinion: sit out a cycle if you can. I failed in April 2019 and took it again in October 2019 because I thought the same thing "things will still be fresh on my mind." By about September, I was already burnt out on studying, so I went into October's exam just...tired.

I am probably planning to take it again in April 2020, but only because I paid for a review course and I get to take it again for free. The kicker to that is I have to take it in the next exam cycle, aka April 2020. So no break...again. Kind of dreading it.

If that's true, it's horrifying.

The Florida stuff, I mean.

positive. at least one other has had the same convo with her

I called her, but went to the voicemail. I think she was messing with you for sure, probably that was the call #1000 that she received today lol I hope so...

Passed TX WRE and got the License.

Did you receive an email from the board with the license? or are you already on the roster?

Just spoke to Lisa M (the one and only) at FBPE on the phone, told her I heard NCEES released the results and she said they received it and it would be 2-6 weeks before they released results. said they had to go through the results review process first...

Has anyone else gotten this line or is this the terrifying truth??

WTF.  I know it takes that long for them to issue you a license number after you pass, I didn't know it took that long just to let you know the results, too.  That can't be right.  ...Can it?

*bangs head against wall*

 

[TSLT2010]

I called her too a few minute back and got the same reply. She said they will do an Audit and then send it somewhere else to get another audit done and then the results would be released in 2-6 weeks. It is really going to suck if this happens. 

WTH!!!!! but with what time I'll study if I fail?!?!?!?! doesn't make sense

I feel that I need to punch a bag right now 

 

[ECE@PE]

Are  you sure of what you're saying?!?!?!?!?!? 

I second the comment made, I was told 2-6 weeks as well.

 

[0036SK]

It is 3.36 CST and still no results from LA....I guess it will be Friday the 13th!!

Also - to all those that passed.

Did you receive an email from the board with the license? or are you already on the roster?

I didn't receive an email, I just refresh the board myself, you won't be in roster today I guess, I can't search and find myself.

Who knew there were so Louisiana engineers on these boards. Wonder if it's anyone i know? Also, yeah LAPELS, people are waiting.

I have a friend who has failed Geotech twice in a row. What made you change to Construction?

Oregonians:

I emailed OSBEELS and received a reply from a person there that said that NCEES would send the results to the examinees before sending them to OSBEELS and therefore we would know before they would.

Hrmph.
