How you guys & gals faired on the exam. I felt Good about the morning portion but I think the afternoon session we'll have me taking it again. There's questions no way you could study for unless you have the test bank.

If you felt good, you're fine.
Believe your gut. It is easy to look back and grieve over the parts where you felt uncomfortable while totally ignoring the many things you handled easily.
BTW, the real world where you put your financial security on the line when you sign your name is a hundred times worse than what you are experiencing now.
The morning part of the National exam was ok. The afternoon part of the National, brutal. I feel I did well on the state portion, I have an engineering background so I think that helped a lot.

Ha, Good to know things haven't changed. I felt the same way back in 08. Morning was cake, afternoon had rather specific questions to which I didn't have in my resource material. It all worked out but I've always wanted to know which ones I may have missed.
The morning and afternoon National portion was closed book (except for the ref manual they give.)
Either way, the afternoon was brutal :/
I wish it was still open book I needed to double check a few things

The consensus among my two guys who took the PS Friday was the same: the afternoon was brutal.
I took the Delaware state specific "Jurisprudence and Drainage" exam on Friday. I've taken a lot of test in my life: SAT, GRE, GMAT, FS, PS, MD state law and drainage exams (six hours total of state specific exams), CFedS, and three financial services licensing exams....and in comparison that Delaware exam was a freaking nightmare.
Got bad news today start studying all over again, i hate failing an exam.
Sit down with your Mentor(s) and establish a study plan. Concentrate on weak points.

Read Browns Boundary Control and Legal Procedures, Evidence and Procedures for Boundary Location, GPS for Land Surveyors and Elementary Surveying and you will be able to complete the entire exam in 3 hours the next time you take it. You aren't going to know every question. There are some questions on that exam that you cannot prepare for but if you read the books listed above you will know about 95 percent of the exam before you even walk in there.
I've yet to receive anything. My hopes are not high though...
Yup, same here.. bad news. I crushed it on Standards and Specifications (92), but did simply miserable on Legal Principles (46), which is strange because I read Boundary Control and Legal Principles twice. Other scores were slightly below or around 70
Same here 92 standards and specifications and average on others, just bombed types of surveys (44) it was the construction survey items they got me.
I think they forgot to grade mine....
How did your results come? Email and log on to NCEES or snail mail from PA Board?

I got mine about 2:00pm today via email..
Did it include the state portion or does that come separate?
I got mine around 2 today the state and national exams are separate. in LA you'll get the state a week later. Different state boards release scores at different dates and time.

Cordgrass,
Have you resubmitted for the fall exam? I am an LSI here in La and just called the Lapels board, the lady told me that since the test is now a CBT, they do not have a test date for the national or state specific this fall.
She does not have a deadline for the PS exam application either.
I asked her if it would even be possible to take the PS exams any time in the remainder of 2016 and she said yes, but the board would not meet again until August to determine the times and places.
I'm wondering how it is possible to determine these dates in August, yet go through the normal timeline of months to review applications and still test in October.
Do you have any info on this?
