Aced afternoon. (I had all the references) and was suprised at how many water questions (channel, pipe) stuff for Transpo. Morning, I am just so-so. I got held up on two questions that i just couldnt convert day's into seconds or minutes..whatever the hell they were asking me for....screwed me..and by the end..i could have used an extra 30 minutes...

testmasters was worth it...had a couple (more than) on the test that were not exactly from the book, but a similar example in the book.

I am 75% sure I passed...and if i dont..im leaving this profession. :)

Morning, will be the decider for me though...i counted all the questions in the afternoon, that i thought i got right for sure...and i had 28 before i even went back to do other ones, i knew would take more time...so hopefully, i get 30-33 in afternoon, with dumb luck, and guessing...(and of course...i could hve had the wrong answers because we all know the wrong answers show up too, if you miscalc..) But..i am pretty sure, i got 28. :)

Morning....i probably only got 20 for sure..and hopefully...with dumb luck..i got a extra 3...so with 30+23, that passes me.... (but i know i missed 2 easy ones...i put saturated instead of buoyant..WTF!!! not thinking...and then..CPM is LONGEST not shortest...another WTF!!!..see what happens when you take a test!!!)

btw..i read all the questions in the morning, and did what they said in testmasters..label #1,#2 #3 regarding hardness..and as I went back an did the #1's..they turned into #2's!!! so for the afternoon..i was like..screw that. :whatever: .. and finished with time to spare...(20 minutes)....funny story...that tip sucked...sorry.

so this is me in dec....23 or so...when AZ results came last time...

:mail:

Later.

 
Timmy,

we sound like we had a very similiar experience with the transpo, and I feel about the same with the # correct in morning and afternoon, etc.

Checkin the mail everyday is going to be miserable.

 
I don't think I made the cut on the FE. I am the sdrawkcab (backwards) guy :wtf:

I PASSED the PE Electrical Depth Last Year and thought that it was not too bad.

But the DAM FE (Plus 10 years out of school) ... I can't turn the corner. I studied my :ass: off. When I took it in April I thought I made it. Got results and it seemed that I was right there. So really buckled down & study HARD for the October Exam.

But after the Morning session I was just lost the DAM probability & Statistics is a mutha.

Plus I don't like that "most nearly" $HIT.

Now as for the job ... I won't even begin to wine about the $ potential. Once I get the license.

So from here on out ... until the results come I will just :prayers:

 
I walked out feeling good, but my confidence is fading fast. I finished both am and pm (pe civil/geotech) about 45 min early. That's with checking my answers. I totally guessed on 2 in the am and 5 in the pm. Everything else I answered with some confidence. I so needed a reference on deep foundations, it wasn't even funny. I think it's possible that I passed, but who knows. By the way, which way is up?

I took the civil/structural and I feel the exact same way. I walked out of there feeling pretty good about it, but now I'm starting to get really worried. There were maybe 5 or 6 that I completely guessed on... and another 5 or 6 that I guessed on but had a decent feeling about.

After thinking through some of the problems this weekend, I think I have come across at least 4 or 5 that I thought I had right during the exam, but now think I got wrong. I just wonder how many more of those there are that I can't remember.

It's going to be a long 2 and a half months. :suicide:

 
I am pretty sure I passed. But, like Max, I have found a few easy ones that I missed and could've nailed.

Oh well.....there's always next time! :brick:

 
The more I think about the exam the more I feel like I FAILED. So I am convincing myself that I FAILED.

 
well, I have a nice base of "feelings" before the exam so now we just have to wait until the results come in so we can calibrate the feelings/comfort level of self assessment and correlate it to actual hard COLD results.

Bring It On!!! ;guns;
