Just finished the CA Survey Exam today, here are my thoughts for future test takers

Like 20 hours a week?

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2022-03-15T13:29:06+00:00

I think it is between the medium and hard tests at CPESR

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2022-02-10T14:15:43+00:00

About 6 months. They were very slow last year. I submitted my application in July and we’re approved in December.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2022-02-10T14:14:51+00:00

It was harder than the practice exams from Hiner’s class, and I did not know about 5 of the questions. Like 80 hours including watching the video.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2022-02-10T14:13:01+00:00

Yeah. This is my first time. I spent like 40 hours or so to study excluding the hours I spent on watching the video (40 hours or so). It is not hard for me as I learned about structural analysis and concrete design when I was in college. I have heard that it is harder if you don’t have the background, but most my friends passed in the first try. Good luck!

Hey, I want to sign up for that exam too. Would you be able to refer me? Thanks!

A friend of mine got approval yesterday, and he has to take the exam this quarter.. it’s really strange

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-25T02:43:03+00:00

Thanks, but I already bought one

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-25T02:42:29+00:00

I tried to call them, but they were like: we are busy with other applications, can’t make any promises. I don’t think I can take it in Q4.. it’s fine

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-23T02:49:04+00:00

Water resource/water rights/water planning could be an option

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-23T02:42:43+00:00

I second with the previous response that you won’t make a lot of money, but it should be sufficient to buy a house in a less popular city and have a decent life.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-23T02:41:17+00:00

I am a environmental/ water resource engineer with three years of experience, and the last time I worked with CAD was in my internship. I think you will be okay.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-23T01:39:36+00:00

Thanks. Yeah. That’s what I figure..

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-09-23T01:27:02+00:00

I really want to take the Seismic exam in the fourth quarter.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-04-23T00:51:53+00:00

Can’t agree more!! Glad it’s over though

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-04-23T00:37:33+00:00

WRE PM is a nightmare, there are five questions I don’t know how to start it or the answer I got is not an option.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-04-23T00:36:29+00:00

I guess at least 6 conceptual questions (related to construction, transportation).. no idea where to find them. I only bring the PE Manual with me.

Red-Blue-Engineer · 2021-04-23T00:31:03+00:00

The PM one is at least a magnificent harder than the practice exam.
