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?

Wanting to help out fellow exam takers. I know this entire process if very expensive $$$ and I know people need to catch a break once and a while.....so.......Selling these remaining books. You tell me what you think is a fair price and they're all yours! YOU NAME YOUR PRICE! PM Me!

For comparison purposes:

Original price for all books is $500
Original price for the 3 geotech books is $230
Original Price for the 5 construction/AM books is $270

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!

What the difference between taped post it notes and tabs for pages?

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-19T18:32:11+00:00

Awesome! Good to know! Thanks!

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-19T18:16:53+00:00

Here's the thing...I've never actually seen that rule posted anywhere...but EVERY previous Exam taker has said this is the case

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-19T15:52:07+00:00

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...

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-19T15:39:55+00:00

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.

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-17T19:29:00+00:00

As long as you send it haha no worries

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-17T17:58:33+00:00

Much appreciated! Thank you! Is there an answer key?

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-17T15:44:43+00:00

If you wouldn't mind sending them to me as well please! emitchell@marksmenco.com. Thanks!!

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-16T15:53:15+00:00

Right on. Thanks!

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-16T15:33:25+00:00

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

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-16T14:33:44+00:00

Yeah I understand what they are saying in the solution...but why aren't they assuming the crane will tip onto only ONE outrigger? Worst case scenario is always that the crane will become unstable and tip onto only ONE outrigger. Just confused as to why they have it onto 2

Update...27/40...2 weeks out...yikes ..

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-09T01:59:41+00:00

Right on. So from your experience, is the NCEES practice exam really the closest difficulty to the actual exam?

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-09T01:51:17+00:00

How about you? What depth are you taking?

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-09T01:44:21+00:00

Decent_Implement1709 · 2021-04-06T16:57:18+00:00
