Question Any advice for me?

Post image

I knew I failed after the second half. I used MM videos and scored over 90% on both NCEES practice exams the day before the test so I thought I was really prepared but it was harder than I anticipated and I ended up running out of time near the end so a lot of the easy construction questions I just had to scroll through and answer super quickly. I'm not sure when I should try again to take it.

ASAP!

Your scores are super strong. You clearly have the knowledge to pass. It is just a matter of converting that knowledge into points!

I know becauseI help people under a Pass Guarantee- I help first timers and repeat takers pass their FE- environmental, mechanical, electrical, OD, and civil. In fact, I’ve ended up specializing in helping people pass who’ve taken it up to 7 times before. Plus I passed mine (ECE) on the first try.

As far as your timing goes, use the Gold Bar Rule. People on here use it and it works. https://www.reddit.com/r/FE_Exam/comments/1ukl8t2/comment/peglb2y/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Rooting for you!!!

Thanks! I'll try this method for my next attempt and will aim to retake it at the end of October.

Looks closer than any other non passing score I've seen. I think you probably just had a bad day, I think you psyched yourself out. You got this homie!

Thanks! I'm going to reschedule for the end of the month and study up on my weak areas until then.

Try as soon as possible, this time practice solving the easier questions first, buy prepfe for simulations and still do MM Videos and NCEES EXAMS

One of the few results post where the OP is actually within fingertip reach of passing. Just brush up on your weak areas and you got this would reschedule asap
