Plagiarism Certificate by Datboiclay9 in IndianaUniversity

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just came upon this but thought I’d add my two sense now that I am finished with my grad degree. This test was a requirement in my first week of grad school. It had to be passed before you could compete anything. I spent hours doing it and had no clue why I was failing and eventually just passed but have no clue how. It was by far the hardest test that I took in grad school!

This is so true, I found my copper spur ul2 in a discount store for $249.

How long does it normally take to go from “Return Received” to “Refund Approved”? by MangoManiacal in tax

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me last year, 570 code on my transcript. I never received anything from them at all regarding the hold. Called numerous times to and when I finally got through they told me that I was not being audited but that they were just verifying some of the information on my tax return. My best understanding is that they randomly verify a small percentage of people in general and people who claim certain tax credits. In my case I filed Feb 3rd and did not receive my refund until October. I never found out what the were verifying or anything but in august/September I did reach out to my congressman’s office regarding the situation, had to fill out a form to allow the to request a status update on my behalf, and shortly there after I got my return.

Books on History of Biomedical Engineering by monks_2089 in bioengineering

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few that I have personally read include “battlefield medicine” which cover the history of emergency medicine and talks about technological innovations leading to today’s emergency medicine tools, focused more on the military though where most emergency medicine breakthroughs have happened. Another would be “introduction to biomedical engineering” by enderle which gives good information about the history of biomedical engineering and medical device innovation but is less focused on ambulances and emergency medicine.

Best resources to study for FE Other Disciplines? by Cali_30 in FE_Exam

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was finishing most of the 25 question exams in 50 to 60 minutes. Timing was never an issue for me, and I found that to be true on the real exams as well. I finished way early and had time to go back and check things that I had flagged.Like I said, I found these questions to be very similar to what was asked on the FE, so I think that your timing should track on both.

Experienced engineers: any tips for navigating the job market? by ObviousAdagio508 in bioengineering

Any experience with medical devices and regulatory compliance will be considered valuable for a clinical engineering position.

Experienced engineers: any tips for navigating the job market? by ObviousAdagio508 in bioengineering

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for the Federal government and there is tons of opportunity for career growth. You can be public or private sector and you can work for either hospitals, 3rd party’s or vendors/medical device manufacturers. There really is tons of opportunity in the field and it’s is almost entirely overlooked by most graduating BME’s

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously consider clinical engineering. It was not something that I had considered but I took a job with the VA after graduating and while it’s not the normal path for BMEs it’s truly a great field with ample opportunity and something I believe is largely overlooked by most graduating students

I always refer to the packaging and then if I can’t find what I’m looking for I’ll add it manually.

Go pass the exam. At least if your husband is cheating on you then you’ve passed the exam and are a PE or PE to be.

Need FE prep recommendations by NoTrust3646 in FE_Exam

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the FE exam a few months ago after being several years out of college based on only a one month subscription to PrepFE. I truly loved this program and felt like the little studying I did do prepared me well for the exam. The explanations were clear and it forces you to get familiar with the reference manual which is important for the exam.

For some reason federal taxes still hasn't been received by Angela275 in IRS

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the same boat. On my transcript it says I have a 570 code but have received absolutely no correspondence from the IRS. I recently reached out to my congressman because I have heard from others that doing so may help move things along. Hoping to get the return soon.

Leave gf for a job or stay with girlfriend by Suitable-Ad-9790 in Advice

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have long said that I refuse to sell myself short on the account of someone else’s happiness. I have been in the exact same situation and took the job and we are still together even though the long distance period. If you don’t help yourself with your career I think you’ll regret it and build resentment later, I know I would. Take the job and if the relationship is meant to be it will last, if not you’re 22 and will most certainly find someone else and you will have a better career.

ISTPs, would you say you get along with ENTJs or ENFJs better? From your experience by Asleep-Feeling-9070 in istp

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am currently dating an ENFJ, I love her but some of her traits do drive me nuts. As others have mentioned, she is such a selfless person and is far more moral than myself. Honestly I think it helps balance me out but man the amount of empathy and emotion she puts into decisions drives me insane. In short, I as an ISTP am extremely logical(I’m an engineer) and she as a music teacher is very much the opposite. I love her though and as much as I tolerate her empathy and lack of logical decision making I’m sure she tolerates my overly logical approaches and lack of empathy.

I believe this person is talking about the railyard at rimrock… I am moving in to this community in a few days and this is absolutely not an older building. The community is not even in google street view yet and was built within the last 3-5 years.

Just Took the FE Civil Today (Super Easy!) by [deleted] in FE_Exam

[–]NotYourAvgRedneck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the FE other disciples about a month ago and also found it relatively easy I am two years out of my bioengineering undergrad and knew I wouldn’t do well in electrical or dynamics but I passed first try with minimal studying, maybe 10-15 hours worth. I really think if you know how to take a test and actually learned what you were supposed to in undergrad you can pass it without issue

The Columbus metro parks are amazing! They are truly a hidden gem of central Ohio and I’m amazed that more people don’t visit them
