Anyone have suggestions on OH State Specific Exam Study Materials? Thanks.
You should be able to get a copy of the compiled statutes for Land Survying from the PLSO website and there is another book either from PLSO or the Dept. of Natural Resources titled Original Ohio Land Subdivisions by C.E. Sherman. Those are probably the two most important books you'll need. Try and get the Ohio Lands book with the big wall map. Probably one of the nicest maps you'll ever see. Has every section in all of the major land divisions as well as most of the larger tract boundaries in the fabled Virginia Military District.
I concur with Brad (Chicagostrohl).
Brad, did you ever learn how to play euchre?
Agree with the suggested resources and have more information on both:
The publication "Ohio Survey Laws" was available from PLSO and consolidated the most important laws and rules into one volume as a reference for professional surveyors. The most current version is several years old and laws do change. The current laws and rules are online at LAWriter and should be compared with the PLSO book.

Yes, Doug you taught me at the PLSO conferences while I was at U. of Akron.
I will be certain to pick up the suggested materials above, but was curious if there is anything else one should look at other than listed on the reference webpage? ( http://www.peps.ohio.gov/Exams/PS%7COHPS/OHPSSurveyingReferences.aspx )
Are there any "review classes"? I was able to take one for NY.
Thanks!
