Texas PE Structure cut-off

[PEStructureAspirant]

Now, the results are out, would request Texas PE- Structures  to post there actual scores, especially folks who have failed. This would help us judge the cut-off.

do they post the score for everyone? even those who passed? or is this just a statistic pass/fail rate?

Scores got updated.  Texas test takers can start checking now.  I just saw mine not bad considering I failed twice 61% and 68% and this third try I passed 80%.

Civil WRE passed 79% (for what its worth)

 

[Mack Eltarhoni]

I passed Structural PE with 76%!  I wonder what the cut score was haha. Probably 70%?

My friend failed the civil structural exam.  he got 47/80 and on the TX link, it shows 66%.

I got the same score.

So that means 50 or 51 May have been the cut score? I saw someone fail with a 50/80 on another topic.

I failed civ str in GA with a 50 (30 AM + 20 PM) out of 80. Seeing this post from TX where 47/80 was a 66% score leads me to believe that scores were adjusted by 6 questions this round, so my 50/80 would really be 56/80 or 70%... Is this the right line of thinking? 

Makes me absolutely nauseous to think that the cut score was 51.

TX Structural pass-85. Not that helpful I guess since above 80

For Texas, if your score does not say 70 or greater you will not pass.

See: §133.73 Examination Results and Analysis.

By your logic, then 50 should be the cut-off as scaled 70% is pass.

Yeah, it stops making sense if we consider 70% to be passing (although I believed that we had always thought that was so, but not a known rule).

Either way, 50 was obviously not the cut off since myself and several others failed with it. I'm guessing 51 then. Still sucks.

It looks like they dropped 8 questions. So 50/72=.69444 repeating. If you assume proper rounding you couldn’t have missed the 70% by any less.
