Just looked at the book shelf where I unpacked my references after I returned to the house in April. Man, I'm glad I don't have to repack those books!

 
Holy ****... had a nightmare last night. Apparently there are two cut scores you must achieve in order to pass the PE. I passed NCEES but fell short on the state cut score - no PE. That wasn't cool and took a minute or so for me to come to my senses.

 
I can't even sleep anymore. All I picture in my head are graphs, charts, and equations. Last night while almost asleep I am pretty sure I developed an imaginary graph relating the amount of time left I had to sleep and how tired I'd be the next day, and just trying to figure that out kept me wide awake...

Relax. The test is actually kind of easy.

I agree with Matt, not sure if that's a good thing.

I was worried going in that I hadn't prepared enough plus I tend to be horrible at exams. It was probably half as hard as I was expecting.

 
I have been studying almost every second I have a chance, I would say I have about 320 hours put into studying, probably more actually, up until now and by the time the exam rolls around it will probably be close to 420 hours. I find myself going through a rollercoaster of confidence and anxiety that I am not prepared enough. I am taking the EET review course (breadth and depth) and have run through all of the practice problems and quizzes given through the course, and I have gone through god knows how many practice exam problems (NCEES, Goswami(2), and a few others). I am using all of my references when I come across an example problem that requires them for more practice using them, I am constantly going through the boards to find some practice problems subscribers have posted. I just do not want to get to the exam and come across a problem that I SHOULD have known. I am not a very good test taker (anxiety gets to me) so I need to start focusing on keeping calm and thinking clear! 23 more days... I think I can, I think I can! 

 
@ngmakhlo, what depth are you taking? If you're taking EET's review class, you have put yourself in a very good position to pass.
