Dr. Ibrahim,
I wanted to let you know that I passed the SE Lateral Buildings exam this April 2022!
Thanks to your and Dr. Zayati's excellent instruction, I was able to pass the vertical last Spring 2021, and the lateral this Spring, both on my first attempts at the exam. I can say with certainty that I would not have been nearly as well-equipped without your course. I have already recommended it to everyone I've spoken with about the exam, and I will continue to do so.
I could always tell that you genuinely cared about our success, and I appreciated how thoroughly you explained the material. I definitely feel like a much better engineer than I was before your course. And it's a great relief to be done!
Thanks again, and best wishes!

Dear Dr. Ibrahim and Dr. Zayati
Just wanted to tell you I am very thankful for your instruction and advice over the past 3+ months of the SE lateral class. I feel pretty good about the exam, but more importantly I know that I am a better engineer for having taken your class and doing all the work you prescribed.
Looking around our exam site in Denver before the test, I saw several people near me who had the AEI binders with hundreds of tabs-- there was a striking difference in how much less wild page-flipping those guys were doing vs. those without.
I will be recommending your class to my colleagues who are serious about trying to pass this exam.
