Assorted Testimonials
I would like to thank you, Ahmed, for one of the most well organized review classes I have ever taken. What makes your class unique and truly different from the rest is the amount of effort and dedication you put into helping all of your students fully understand the materials. Not only that, but you also gave us the tools and strategies in order to learn how to tackle the questions on the exam. The extra free session you gave us aided me in enhancing my problem solving skills and grew my confidence of passing the exam. I strongly recommend your class to all my colleagues who want to acquire much needed skills to pass such a difficult test

Ahmed,
Just wanted to share great news that I found out this morning that I passed my seismic exam!!!!
I truly could not have passed without your course and your dedication in helping people pass this exam.
I was really nervous because it took me a couple attempts to pass the 8-hr national PE exam and I knew seismic would be a very difficult exam. But you walked through all the fundamentals in a comprehensible way that made me feel really confident going into the exam.
I have been recommending your course to everyone because it truly is the Gold Standard for this seismic exam. So thank you very much.
