agreed. That was NOT in our curriculum or catalog when I started this program. It's BS and they know it. It's not like we didn't already have to take the AIC exam.

exit exam is free. It just takes up two class periods and covers material from every CM class. If you don't pass it, you don't graduate, and it's worth up to 20% of your grade in Const Enterprise.

The AIC exam costs $165, somehow factors into your grade, and if you don't do well enough on it, you can't graduate. It takes all day on a friday to take and the only review material is an 800 page online manual of sample questions.

It's 110 questions and you have 90 minutes.

The questions range from "Slate is what type of rock , in depth scheduling questions, to taking off a concrete slab calculating the cost of labor, material, and equipment. Lots of specific information that you will probably forget and you end up running out of time. The test actually isn't hard if you had all the info to review for it. I'll report back here tomorrow and fill you in on part 2

Actuallly, it's 115 questions. Those last 5 questions from commercial were doozies when you didn't have enough time to calculate them.

Head of CM at LSU graduated from Phoenix online if I'm not mistaken.

Those who can't do, teach.

Take that fwiw.

The exit exam is only 12% of your grade. They won't fail us.

I'm more worried about the AIC exam, only because I have no idea what that is. They really set us up to watch us fall.

King bob that's exactly what happened to me on commercial. It was very easy, but I just didn't have enough time to calculate.

Looks like LSU CM is getting its shite together. When I went, out side of maybe 2-3 classes, most were laughably easy
