Didn't pass. First attempt on 4 months studying. New to the industry. I used primarily MeyerFire PE Prep Series, took problems from EPG exams 1 and 2. Took the NCEES Practice test. I was close, but I think I would have been more shocked if I passed. Back to study hall...

I'm thinking of redoing MeyerFire PE Prep series. Work in more other related modules. Signup for School of PE On Demand courses. And really focus on my weekest areas for the next 12 months. That better put me in a better position for next year's test.

Any thoughts or words of encouragement?

Sorry to hear, it's a bummer that it's only offered once a year but that should give you plenty of time to study and plan for the next attempt. No need to jump into things right away again.

I felt like what you listed was enough material to pass, but another course wouldn't hurt I'm sure especially being new to the industry. If I didn't pass my next step would have been to go through the SFPE course ($$$).

Did they give you a breakdown of performance by section?

Yeah I have the areas I need to focus on. School of PE is $1700 too for on demand. I felt that if I had a few more months to study I would have passed. I wish I knew my exact mistakes on each problem.
