SE Vertical Forces (gravity/other)

Dear Professor Ahmed, 
I am happy to inform you that I have passed my SE vertical exam. Thank you for the great lectures and notes as they helped me a lot during the preparation. 

My teachers, thank you for all your time and preparation. These exams were very difficult for me, and your efforts not only helped me pass but also help the quality and conformity of my client's projects.
I know how much of my time was spent on nights and weekends, and I see you giving that time right along with me - year after year. You both are a treasure to our industry.
My sincere gratitude and appreciation,

Gentlemen,
I am delighted to announce to you that I have passed both the SE Vertical and Lateral Exams. I don't even have the right words to express my happiness. I kept refreshing the NCEES online portal to ensure it was not an optical illusion.
It has been an arduous journey but the end product is very rewarding. Far beyond my success on the exam, I believe my greatest satisfaction comes from the transformation I have undergone during this process.
Your review courses were pivotal in my understanding of the structural engineering fundamentals, my introduction to seismic analysis and design, and so many other valuable lessons which will stick with me for the rest of my career. I honestly do not even know how to thank you for being such bright spots in my life, for believing in me and encouraging me no matter the circumstances.
