Thinking about my strong and weak areas using this form really helped me focus my study efforts. I made versions for all five major civil disciplines. If you find any errors, please let me know - or fix them and post the revised version.

This is one of my "thank yous" for the help I got here. Please feel free to pass this spreadsheet on to others and credit engineerboards.com.

For example: I used this to plan out my study time on Transportation -- for me, 20-30 or so hours studying Geometric Design was going to gain me most of the 8 morn questions and 12 aftn questions I got wrong in that topic, while it would have likely taken 50-100 hours studying structural to gain 1 or 2 questions on morning Structural (I was already running at 4-5 right -- had picked the low-hanging fruit.)

To use the spreadsheet, type the % correct from your diagnostic report into the blue column and then look at descriptions of each study area (see link at bottom of each sheet) to make a right-for-you decision on target # correct for each topic area, based on how hard it will be for you to learn that topic.

Hope this helps - ENJOY!

 
Great help, I did better last time than I thought. If I get just a couple more right in Oct I'll be there! Thanks
