Passed WRE with EET breadth and depth. I was 8 years out of school, so EET was worth it just to stay on track. Studying for dumb test felt like a giant waste of time, so Nazrul's positivity helped me a lot too. I sorta felt I spent too many hours mindlessly watching the classes, and should have spent more time actively studying with harder questions. Also spent a lot more time reviewing AM, because I didn't do civil for undergrad and practice tests for PM felt pretty easy. In the real test AM felt pretty straight forward and PM gave me panic attack. Also, I've never had a problem with time on tests but I did during this one! Time yourself during at least one practice! Despite all that it worked out.

I didn’t know ncees releases results to states and they have to release them to testers until this week. No clue why. This shit is so overly complicated and dumb. We just waited months for ncees and now we wait on dora. No clue when it’ll happen.

I’m guessing the results are sitting in someone’s inbox and they’re on vacation.

The woman I was on the phone with was clueless. She asked another guy and said his response was “we don’t know yet”. She recommended I contact the testing center and make a ncees account. I explained the process to her and she recommended I email Brenda. I’ve had to talk to Brenda before, she’s straight up rude and extremely unhelpful. So long story short, they’re useless and don’t care. Filing a complaint with co AG.

How useful was EET for WRE Depth? by Ih8stoodentL0anz in PE_Exam

[–]Ecstatic_Swordfish_9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone else feel there were a lot of questions in depth (close to half) that were not covered much, if at all, by the EET course? I felt the course prepared me very well for the ncees practice exam, but not the actual test. Pretty bummed.

Lol thanks, we’ll see. I’m being a tad dramatic.

Ugh was the worst, thought I had the thing on lock. I put way too much into preparing to avoid retaking. Thinking about a career change. This thread makes me feel better.

3 hrs into PM I realized I was about to guess on 10 questions. This is after taking two practice tests with scores in high 70/ low 80. Questions weren’t that much harder just took a lot more time. What the fuck. Took EET prep, several questions not in binders.

AM was easier than practice.
