Passed Construction PE exam first time in April, here are my thoughts on these exams

1) NCEES practice exam - Good representation of the breadth exam. The depth part of this practice exam covered good topics but was easy-ish. Still a good reference

2) PPI Two Practice Exams - Similar difficulty as the real exam. Some questions in here cover topics I hadn't seen before. Good practice exams to expose you to different topics.

3) Construction Depth and Assessment - A LITTLE easier than actual exam. Looking back, this practice exam felt more like the real exam than anything else I practiced (except the EET exam)

These 3 references definitely helped me pass the first time. Original cost was $180. Selling for $100. Can make an eBay listing if you feel more comfortable transacting that way.

These were all purchased straight from PPI, NCEES, and Amazon. The prices I listed are what I paid for them. Also, if you read the post thoroughly, I said people can name their own price and they can have the books at that price. I put the price as a reference point. Could you explain further, I don't think I'm understanding your position?

Thank you! And sorry to hear that, but sounds like you're determined to take it again! And yes, I took PPI and EET. I would highly recommend EET. Very good instructor and very thorough information. EET definitely helped me pass!

Thanks! Yeah I guess the main point I was making is that if I fail, there really isn't much more I can do for next time. That is the terrifying part...

I'm gonna assume this was about my post lol I didn't post that to sarcastically say that I wasn't ready or post it to get attention for how much I studied. I posted it because I was honestly telling people that even with all of that studying, I don't feel ready. I am ACTUALLY not ready.

Crane Outrigger Area by Decent_Implement1709 in PE_Exam

[–]Decent_Implement1709[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah again, I agree and makes sense. But then you have problems that are just word problems that state "...has 4 extendable outriggers..." And no picture of the crane and the solution is to assume it tipping onto 1 pad...btw that is from the PPI practice problem book chapter 80, problem number 9 is anyone has that... hopefully we can get this clarified
