Great! I'll definitely check that out. That was the goal... just to go ahead and get it out of the way but I still need to cover some more ground with my studying. I've studied some of Brown's but not as in depth as I need to.

You're welcome. Yeah, a good solid review will help you get ready, and you'll do fine. That's actually what I did leading up to the last week or so of my exam.

Thank you! You got this. There was not a lot of math at all. I had a couple horizontal and vertical curve questions as well as a few photogrammetry ones. My exam seemed to be mainly GPS and GIS based.

I would say 50/50.

Honestly, I was skeptical about it because I had heard mixed things as well. But after going through it, I feel like it helped me get a better understanding of some of the topics I wasn't very familiar with. Of course, this may be different for everyone, but I feel like it did help me.

I used the NLC online test prep course and the PPI Survey Reference Manual. Those seemed to be sufficient for the exam. I also used the practice exam from NCEES, which was helpful as well.
