Use this weekend to brush up on concepts that need a little work, but I personally would avoid trying to learn brand new concepts. I stopped studying the Tuesday before my successful exam attempt, and it gave my brain a good rest! I spent the rest of the week organizing my notes and binders, and relaxing. I think it really helped a lot.
Five weeks, pfftt. More like 6-7 weeks. And more like 12 weeks in Pennsylvania.Plan something fun for the weekend and get ready for the rollercoaster ride of reliving the exam for the next 5 weeks and questioning yourself![]()
@Will.I.Am be like:I'm kind of excited to see what NCEES is going to bring to the table.
No it's not weird at all. It reads like you executed a good study plan and are in the right state of mind to slay the dragon. Go kick it's ass!Is it weird that I'm kind of getting pumped to go take this exam? After six months of pulling references together and another six months of doing as many practice problems as I could reasonably get ahold of, I'm kind of excited to see what NCEES is going to bring to the table.
I mean, I'm feeling the nerves, don't get me wrong. Though, they're more like the nerves before a big game, where you know you can compete if you execute properly, rather than nerves from existential dread.
I don't know, maybe it's just me. Either way, the absolute best of luck to everyone else taking the exam next Friday. Let's Do This!
Play some music that gets you "pumped up" in the car on the way to the exam site.I’ve been envisioning my routine on exam morning.
I’m still working on calming my nerves.
Highly recommend: Final Countdown, Don’t stop believin’, eye of the tiger, and livin’ on a prayerPlay some music that gets you "pumped up" in the car on the way to the exam site.
Has Ohio been that consistent? I admit that I asked people to start recording the release times a few years ago but I never actually tracked the results. I'm glad someone is finding utility with the data.I'll be sure to let you when Ohio results are out... though I'd bet that it's right around 1:30 pm ET on the day NCEES releases them, just like it's been for years running.
Here's hoping the Control Systems exam doesn't hold things up too long.![]()
I definitely don't want you updating me on Vermont's results in May. You got this!One last drive to VT...
It's honestly one of the things driving me forward rn. "This is the last damn time I give RB info for VT!"Has Ohio been that consistent? I admit that I asked people to start recording the release times a few years ago but I never actually tracked the results. I'm glad someone is finding utility with the data.

This is cheesy af, but I was on my third attempt and wanted it to be my last...so kept playing "Lose Yourself" to pump me up.I’ve been envisioning my routine on exam morning.

I went back and checked after I wrote that, and in the last 3 administrations, they've released at 1:23, 1:41, and sometime between 1:45 and 2:00. So, I guess it's more like 1:45, but yeah.Has Ohio been that consistent? I admit that I asked people to start recording the release times a few years ago but I never actually tracked the results.

I used the data to nail down a good approximation for MD’s results too. I’m thinking the week of December 9.I'm glad someone is finding utility with the data.
