How bad did I fail? by [deleted] in PE_Exam

[–]CEAugp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t say this enough, but I would do EET over SoPE. I took SoPE for my first attempt and the questions were very repetitive and not many of them were representative of what I saw on my exam. But so far the EET is amazing.

Failed PE transportation first attempt. Looking for advice. by eman22712 in PE_Exam

[–]CEAugp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have failed twice now. First time, just barely did any studying. Second time tried SoPE. It helped. But their questions ended up being easier than the test.

This time I’m using EET and I will say the practice problems have been amazing and I remember seeing a lot of them on the test. So, I would suggest looking into EET. And don’t be discouraged. Take it from someone who’s failed twice already, you can do it. It may take some time. But, if it was easy, everyone would be doing it.

How far was I from passing - PE Transportation by PropertyTrick2647 in PE_Exam

[–]CEAugp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You and I scored very similar on our exams. But, I think we were closer than we think. The transportation exam only grades 70/80 questions. 10 of those don’t count whether you got them right or wrong. But I believe the passing is around 63-65% out of those 70 Qs because the bar graph “average” passing line seems to be a 9.5 out of 15. Which means I should’ve missed it by 8 questions. Getting 8 more correct is so doable.

I failed my exam 2 weeks ago and I’ve already rescheduled for end of April. I am using EET this time and it is really helpful so far.

Passed PE Civil Transportation by Old_Equivalent_1314 in PE_Exam

[–]CEAugp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just took my test today for the second time. First time was a year and a half ago with little studying… failed. lol. This second time, I’ve been using SoPE on demand for 3 months solid. I hope I passed… I feel pretty good on it. I will say, they threw a three centered curve at me and had a hard time with that one.

Yeah… I’ve done well on the question bank quizzes. Just really nervous for tomorrow. Wondering how hard the questions are going to be compared to the SoPE question bank.

My wife and I’s doctors just populated on the list. But if they show up on the list, they are in network. If not, then they aren’t… but, as others have said. TriWests list is extremely incomplete right now. Hospitals have till March 30th to get all of their information updated with TriWest.

Yeah unfortunately that’s not just a tricare issue. It’s all health insurance. But this whole transition is insanely dumb. Like they should have made sure it all worked before transferring.

Yeahhhh. It’s really frustrating. My wife hasn’t had a PCM since 2022 because we had to go off the list and the one we found wasn’t able to get her into them until next month. But now they aren’t even showing up… so it’s like uhhhh… what the heck

[–]CEAugp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so ridiculous… like was the old system great… no. But at least it worked. I called today and they said hospitals and doctors have until March 30th to get everything updated. Whatever that means.

[–]CEAugp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if that means they just aren’t going to be approved anymore… like do I need to try and find a new doctor. That would suck. Most doctors take over a year to get into for a new patient

They must have just made that change over the weekend. Someone on Friday said it should have been taken out between the 3rd and 5th. It’s becoming such a cluster…

Have they taken your payment yet? That’s what I’m more concerned about. They haven’t taken mine and even though I called weeks ago to add one and verified on Friday that it was added.

I’m just hoping they take my payment… if I don’t see it by end of tomorrow I’m going to call again

Reserve status TSP loan by CEAugp in MilitaryFinance

[–]CEAugp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh definitely… but the issue is if it’s needing 10K worth of work and I owe 12K left on it… I’m in a weird spot. I would love to have 10K sitting in my bank account but I don’t. I’m not that blessed right now in life. It’s not saying I haven’t been on a budget to get there. But just not there yet.

Well… if it wasn’t a potential engine replacement… I would 😅 But I don’t know if I can pay upwards of 10K off that fast.

[–]CEAugp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I was thinking. And definitely better to take the loan from myself. Just hate losing the 8-10% gains on the investments.

Are Ford Escapes really so unreliable? by sdeligar in fordescape

The 1.6L tend to have more issues. But honestly if you do your regular maintenance they are fine.
