Dear Dr. Ibrahim,
I wanted to let you know that I took the Seismic Exam on April 30 and I just received my results - I passed!
I would like to personally thank you, your class is great and going to the actual exam felt exactly like solving the problems we solved in class and in the homework! I had plenty of time at the end (approx. 30 minutes) to go back and check the 4 questions that I wasn't sure how to answer on the first try.
Thank you again. I will highly recommend your course to everyone. You are one of the best teachers I've ever had and your class is structured extremely well. I'm in the Water/Wastewater field and I went to school in Boston so my seismic background was zero. Your course is the reason I passed and I can't be happier.

Great class. The textbook and class lessons were thorough and the homework problems were comprehensive. You were extremely invested in the success of each candidate. There was great value in the time you devoted to make yourself available for one-on-one , small group & class discussions. The personalized sessions gave me the confidence I needed to prepare for this exam. I would highly recommend this course to people studying for the seismic exam.
