Passed ISE exam

Tips

My strategy

  • Graduated with a BS ISE 1.5 months before exam
  • Had 1 month between deciding to pursue my PE and the exam
  • Did not do timed practices
  • I went through the official NCEES practice booklet but didn't solve problems all the way to a final answer. I used the solution key to make sure I was able to know which equations to look for upon seeing a problem.
  • Asked the mobile app ChatGPT to create problems with solutions which I could scroll through on my phone. -Mistake: accidentally reviewed the PE reference book instead of the FE reference book

Exam Day:

  • 8 am exam
  • Skipped the break.
