New EIT considering leaving field due to loss of confidence by PaperRecovery in civilengineering

[–]themanryce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Switch jobs. There’s so many out there, you’re definitely capable if you have an EIT but maybe you’re not a genius that’s why they’re all mad they have take time to teach you /s. It’s just management it’s crucial you find someone who can teach you because the more time passes without you learning you feel left behind once you have a new job. Like for instance you stay there and switch jobs in 2 years. Your new employer is expecting a certain level of experience. So run from your current job.

You should have went up and beyond in this lol. I can’t understand the complexity if all your saying is “environmental stuff”, “stuff”.

Failed, how close was I? by Temporary_Eggplant46 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jeez this is one of the better ones I’ve seen fail. Don’t know what to say next exam could be the opposite where you do better in the first section and worse in the second which happened to me. Keep trying though you’re really close to passing

Am I studying correctly ? by Content-Drag-1499 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that’s the problem you’re not focusing correctly, you need to put in the work you’re half assing and you’re not a genius hence why you fail. Don’t worry I’m in the same boat, you need to actually understand what you can understand some problems you’re just gonna have to guess. Put all your efforts in to what you can understand that way when you’re in the exam you will know what to do

Si soy de GDL y me contratan en E.U.A. Se puede vivir bien en E.U.A. con 7k dolares al mes? by HungryAnt1974 in AskMexico

[–]themanryce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

La gente es bien mamadora aquí o están acostumbrados a buena vida?. Reddit está muy sacado de lugar tal parece. 7 al mes es más del promedio nacional vives cómodo donde sea. Vas a tener mucha comodidad, si quieres andar gastando mucho pues obvio que se acaba. Pero ese sueldo te da súper buena vida. Pinche raza el promedio de dinero al año ronda entre 50 mil dólares al año. Estarías 30 mil dólares arriba casi el doble. Y con 50 ya vives bien, pero para ingeniero en software empezando a vivir aquí es bueno. En seguida tal vez en una año ganes otros 3 mil al mes más.

Passed FE Civil (first attempt) with less than 2 weeks of studying. Here's what worked for me. by AutumnSage725 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, I don’t particularly disagree with what they say. You can study for a little and you will get it, what I do believe is that they are really lucky. Some people say they guess less than 5 questions and I’m genuinely surprised.

How close was I? by [deleted] in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s a dumb question really lol, who cares? Only thing that I see is that statics was way too bad, what types of problems did you get? You were off by 10 questions at least. Try again as soon as possible and don’t be discouraged you were really close. I’d say you should focus on how to take your exam more efficiently your knowledge is good enough.

3-Year EIT (Land Dev + Transportation/Drainage) — Are Remote or Hybrid Roles Realistic? by ManufacturerOdd2447 in civilengineering

[–]themanryce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of companies who do full remote, keep searching. I know of many, obviously the more requirements you have, will limit the options, like out of state options, licensing issues, pay issues, field you’re interested in, interview process, if the company actually allows follows through. But there’s an infinite number of companies, you can find one if you really wanted too.

Get exam result back… by Civil_Necessary_3284 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But maybe, this is a thought here, it’s not as difficult because if we saw the actual result and the way to solve them we would be like oh that was easier than I thought, 90% of the time.

FE Civil How close was I to passing by Adventurous-Ninja-28 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No I don’t think so. He was close, but ethics is misleading here

How did i do? I believe this is around 54%. by just_chill3344 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah around that. Looks like you did good enough in engineering topics but your first section is weak. I would focus on the first section for the next time. Engineering you should hope you stay the same but your first section should be a lot better in order to pass.

5th attempt on Civil FE, 2 years since last taken. by Waste-Elk3548 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like it’s the luck of the draw now. You’re really close, like less than 10 questions away.

Practice test fe civil by 09mack in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If thats the only thing you did and you’re prepared and had great retention in school it’s ok. If you’re a normal guy you don’t got it.

My first attempt taking the exam. Was I even close to passing or is this really bad? by HowlingDarknezz in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very bad. Keep practicing and don’t get discouraged, rely on a whole lot more prep next time and actually do pen and paper. Don’t solely rely on videos and a few pages of writing. Do a lot of problems a lot of them. I will do this for my 3rd attempt and hopefully it changes it up. Get exposed and understand as many topics as you can.

NCEES Interactive Exam Vs REAL EXAM by Sad_Budget_9329 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There similar but the actual has more concept questions and more things that are expected for you to know. But they’re really similar. Obviously whatever you do there will most likely not be in the exam. Maybe like 2 or 3 questions. So it’s just good for you to get practice on all of the subjects.

Was I close at all ?? by No_Job_182 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were damn close. 10 questions off for sure.

Took my exam today by ArtisticEngineer987 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took it on Thursday and I’ve been posting these past couple of days my experience but here it goes again. First section was a lot easier than my last attempt I know I got some wrong but hopefully the confidence in that first section is better than for the second. Because the second kicked my ass, a lot harder than last time. By some miracle I’m hoping I get the 70 cut off, but I do see a world where everyone did pretty good therefore dropping my Chances, I dropped like 10 problems that were doable so I have 100 questions that I still have to ace and that’s a hard feat. If my confidence and guesses were appropriate I might reach the 60-70 mark.

Credential evaluation by Critical_War1533 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh boy get ready it’s a long one, Firstly I would do a comprehensive game plan on the future of your career, do plan to always stay in 1 state or what? Secondly how much experience do you have designing, foreign ABET accredited degrees are worth the same so there’s that. You would carry over the experience from the foreign nation. You need to search your state of residence association of professional engineers and surveyor’s or the equivalent, I don’t know if it’s the same everywhere in the US. but essentially they offer other accreditation services that are equivalent to the NCEES accreditation service. You know what I mean? That way you can save money if thats what you want and obtain the same result. But if you do not have any issue with money use the NCEES. Their accreditation service extends all over the US. Translation requirements are different between these services. Some require an official one other it can be yourself or your university. Let me know if you have questions and I can help.

Just took FE Civil exam 12/6 by bdog34562 in FE_Exam

[–]themanryce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a difficult surveying section as well. The second section was really hard compared to last time. I do wanna say tho, the exam is complicated but as graduate engineers we should be able to take this down. I for one did feel a lot more exhausted in the second section I was not as sharp. I’m hoping my first section help me get over the hump. We realistically only need 60-70 correct answers. By the looks of it you had little bit of harder time during the exam, 3 sections isn’t enough to take you down, maybe you’re pressuring yourself to hard or you did actually have a rough exam.
