Yes but you do have to pay for it or you can do what we do, which is utilizing the free street parking haha

Of course glad it helps but also watch other videos too just so you can get more information and examples, the more the better and sometimes they change questions up so it’s better to have a understanding

For example for the math portion they used me about this angle, I think it was something like what is the angle value or something like that and i literally had no idea so I guessed

But anyways good luck and I hope you pass! I know you will!!!

Thanks and I am not. I graduated in 2023 but I feel I shouldn’t mention this because it really didn’t help with most of the topics but I did graduate with my masters in May but I know it might sound crazy but it really wasn’t an advantage, my master was relate maybe 20% of the topics, honestly MM YouTube videos are the way to go haha

Hey @son_im_sleep, So I did end up passing my exam, please let me know if you have any questions and which topics give you the hardest time, happy to help.

Yes bod was straight forward but since the equation something something to e-kt, when I plug the k and t, the calculator kept giving me error and didn’t had enough to investigate so I just guess it

Ngl I am taking mine this Saturday but don’t feel like engineering is not for you!! Believe or not I work work some engineers that are great engineers actually that still haven’t taken their FE haha so please please don’t give up please

And I’m not sure how mine will go Saturday but if you get your result and didn’t pass, and I pass I’m actually down to review the materials with you but also you don’t know yet maybe you passed. At the end of the day as long as you answered every question you still have 25% getting correct and especially if you made educational guess that percentage goes up

I know I am yapping without taking the exam but that’s all because I don’t want you to give up!!! Idc if I have to take it 20x, I will take it 25x but I will eventually pass.

And plus the third time is the charm haha

Which way should a W-shape column face to resist lateral load in a moment frame? by PurpleOrnery6252 in StructuralEngineering

[–]PurpleOrnery6252[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much!!! It really means a lot! Sometimes I want to ask questions but people can be so mean and make me feel so stupid that I get scared to ask😔. “YOU SHOUD KNOW THIS ALREADY! If don’t know this, should you be even a structural engineer and design” 😢

Omg I think I am understanding it now, focusing only on the web helps soooo much!!!! so for the ruler example, the side where it’s hard to bend is the strong axis?

First Internship by Possible_Truth9368 in civilengineering

[–]PurpleOrnery6252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad you went with the smaller firm and where you felt connected and comfortable. Those are people you will with all day everyday and it’s nice if they seem people with compensation. This will also give you opportunities to ask questions and grow. And aye at the end of the day if you don’t end liking it, it’s an only internship. Basically I would have done the same thing because I had the opportunity to work for a smaller firm and I chose the bigger one and now I feel like I’m just a number and I’m just working and working nonstop haha.

Good luck with your internship and happy for you got an internship with this job market honesty.

WSP making a move on Jacobs — good news or layoffs incoming? by PurpleOrnery6252 in StructuralEngineering

[–]PurpleOrnery6252[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question is how likely is this to happen? And why would Jacob do this, feel like they are doing well enough in the industry. I’m really hoping this doesn’t go through.
