RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
I am very confident that I will pass the exam as long as they ask the right questions.
Good luck to the others!!!
RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
I logged about 150 hours of studying the last couple of months, hopefully it will pay off.
RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
Steellion- do you feel the 150 was overkill, about right, or not enough? I put in about 20. I'm feeling very confident, so I hope I'm not deluding myself.

RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
What dis the test takers today think of it? I thought it was surprisingly easy, especially the afternoon.

RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
there were quite a few AASHTO problems in the morning, but they were pretty simple. I spent less than 1 hour total looking at AASHTO, but managed my way through the problems with help from the index. My approach was not to look at any of the answers until I had an answer of my own.
Ron-
I'm not sure on the new handle yet. StructuralPE is already taken. I thought about StructuralSE, but that's probably not right given that I'll only have the SE I.
I am 99% sure of 34 correct in the morning, and I think I got 36 correct. In the afternoon, I'm 99% sure of like 36 correct and I feel pretty confident on 3 of the other 4. There was a fair number of AASHTO questions that were analysis in nature, so that made the bridges a little easier to deal with, too. I was getting worried a little when a lot of my answers were matching exactly with one of the choices - right down to decimal places (though not all were that precise).
RE: Good luck, PE/SE takers!
First thought - Man, I'm glad that's over.
Second thought - Were those factored loads or service loads for problem 3?
Third thought - I need a beer.
Fourth thought (next morning) - HOW LONG do I have to WAIT to find out the RESULTS?
Best to all.

Use something less formal, e.g. "Ron". Seems to have served him well.
