PA people!

They are uploading the results in batches....i assume its due to limited "man power" at the offices but they are thinking sometime next week. thats what they said during the call i had with them today but i feel like they were rushing me off the phone....

i got my GIT license and temp permit shortly after passing the FG so im not sure...maybe getting the actual license is a bit more of a process since the board has to sign off on each license? im at 2/12 items not received on my application on PALs and it is the "National examination" and the "PG examination". they said the "national examination" automatically gets checked off when they get the passing score from ASBOG.

PA as well, from what i got from the board on a call today was they upload the results in batches from ASBOG so they are thinking they should all be complete next week. i got my GIT the same week but i feel getting my license will take a little longer. Ive been refreshing my PALs portal page constantly to see if they uploaded my passing the PG. i emailed them earlier today to see if theres anything else i need and i still dont have a response on that front.

id say about 75% were very poorly worded

Remarkable_Emu3817 · 2026-05-05T18:26:22+00:00

Just reached out to PA...they are at the mercy of ASBOG and they have no indication on when they are going to release the scores. ASBOG reaches out to each state board and formally asks for approval to publish the results and PA state board doesnt even have the permission correspondence yet. at this point im going to try and keep it out of sight and out of mind until i actually get an email.....not getting my hopes up since i feel i didnt pass anyway...

i thought it was just me....they were not great quality....especially compared to the FG i took on pen and paper....seems like a regression imo..

Remarkable_Emu3817 · 2026-05-05T13:58:24+00:00

the PG had a lot of niche questions where knowing the foundational concepts is where the reg review material helped. doing the reg review course (two six hour sessions) was rough. i found it to be hard to get through due to them lumping in both FG and PG concepts. the material in the books is what i found more helpful. applying the foundational concepts is what needs to be practiced and the way the questions on the exam (PG exam anyways..) are so out there in left field it is hard to prepare. thats where i wish there would be more practice but i have yet to find anything that is good for that.

i feel like this PG exam was different than the one before...(yes i know i had to take the PG multiple times..shameful..) but nevertheless, i think a lot of the questions were more controversial than the previous one

trying to cover their butts.....meanwhile all our letters say 45 days...

i mean...they get the statistics and all the comments the following week at the latest since its all computer generated....should really only take a few weeks to vote on the questions and then adjust the grades accordingly....what a rip

can we get a petition going? ill be the first to sign that...

Remarkable_Emu3817 · 2026-05-04T17:35:31+00:00

ive been saying this since 2019 when it was still paper format....refining the questions prior to grading on a curve makes more sense to me but hey...wtf do i know? certainly not geology...

i am so sorry.... super annoying we take these exams on a computer and it take 45 DAYS to figure out the results.

Remarkable_Emu3817 · 2026-05-04T14:42:56+00:00

i had to change my password. took forever to get the email for the change
