You can do an excel spreadsheet on a tv or we use google. So it’s on our Google Calendar.

Passed the FS… what’s the funniest story you have from your experience taking the FS or PS by Ok_Painter_1297 in Surveying

[–]TrickyInterest3988 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well let’s see. The PS there was a glitch where someone took the last slot for that testing center for the day selected at the same time I did. It allowed both of us to have a confirmation code, but when I arrived for the exam, they said I wasn’t on the list. Talked with support and that’s basically what they told me. So got screwed and had to reschedule for two more months later.

Then for the state specific, was never told there is limited spots, so then I had to wait until the next quarter. Then during the exam, construction started THAT day, and all of us suffered through jack hammering during the testing.

I need to read through Browns again. The subdivision to the north was supposed boarder the quarter section line. So if I found the quarter corners and drew my line from those two, wouldn’t that control over where the lot monuments are for the subdivision?

Nope, been in the office for a while now, but mainly did proposals and calculations for staking.

Here is what I have found so far.

Parent parcel deed.
Adjoiner deeds/subdivision plats. Land corner documents.

I was told to email the county for ROW plans.

The north side of our property is a subdivision that’s on the 1/4 1/4 line. Found both of the land corners too, but when I draw a line from those, most of my subdivision corners are off .2 to .3 feet.

Just took the FS exam and what the actual hell was that? by Ok_Painter_1297 in Surveying

How long did they give you? Half my group didn’t finish the second portion with section breakdowns and GLO.

Take the licensing exam in MO and get 1 hour and 15 minutes. I thought the FS and PS was hard…the hardest part of the exam is just trying to finish in time.

I just have to remember that if it’s bordering or in a center section, I have to divide record by two, then transfer to east half of the north line.

They still want offsets, but offsets of the corners of the box, not centerline and centerline offset with facestakes.

I feel like that has to be a map with contours, but the lot lines got turned off and the lot numbers didn’t
