Like many others have said, the class was exceptionally great. Dr. Ibrahim is always willing to help with all his heart. Every single class elements was very helpful and valuable. No exceptions! Workbook is well presented with sufficient information to understand the concepts specifically for the exam and has lots of practice problems. Summary sheet was pretty helpful. Lectures were comprehensive and easy to follow. I sincerely thank Dr. Ibrahim for his endless effort and time.

Ahmed, your class worth every penny spent for the review class and more. You are so dedicated and concerned that each candidate pass the examination. I honestly attended the first class not knowing a single thing about seismic design and after several weeks I can proudly say that I understand the basic principles of seismic design of buildings.

This course exceeded my expectations and helped me successfully pass the seismic portion of the PE. The On-Demand lectures and book were very well organized, extremely thorough, clear, easy to follow, and included material that was omitted from other seismic courses. The course also incorporated the required sections from ASCE 7-10, the IBC, and other references. The formula sheets provided were beneficial in efficiently solving problems without having to flip through multiple reference books and standards. The Adobe system for watching the On-Demand videos was user friendly and easy to navigate as well. All of that being said what really made this course stand out from the others was Dr. Ibrahim’s attention and care for the students. Having never met him I felt like I knew him based on his sincere desire for my success. This was evident in his answering questions, emails to me, and constant encouragement and support. I highly recommend this course to anyone preparing for the seismic portion of the PE.

The exam was effortless for me after having taken Dr. Ibrahim seismic course. There was an abundance of questions to answer that were wide-ranging and the course exams were especially helpful in strengthening my understanding of the material. I reviewed material from another course as well and found the material in this course of better quality and slightly greater difficulty; which I believe is a better preparatory strategy. The material covered all topics necessary to pass the seismic examination and assisted in my time management and familiarity with actual exam conditions. This is hands-down the best course to prepare engineers for the CA seismic exam and help pass the exam on the first attempt.
Zack C.

Ahmed, You prepared me for the seismic exam better than any other review course I have taken. The problem solving webinars and the many additional hours you gave me one-on-one really helped me understand the concepts and taught me to solve problems efficiently. Your positive nature and patient teaching kept me going. I have never felt this positive about my exam preparation. Thanks Ahmed.
Melissa T.

Dr. Ibrahim is the best instructor I have ever had. I was initially a little apprehensive about taking an online course because I was concerned I wouldn't absorb the material. After the first session, Dr. Ibrahim washed away all those fears! His teaching style and ability to break down difficult subjects made this class truly enjoyable. I felt energized and ready to hit the books every Sunday morning with Dr. Ibrahim. The textbook, class materials, multiple choice questions and practice exams all proved to be invaluable. Dr. Ibrahim helped me reach the highest level of confidence I've ever had going into an exam. There is no class I would recommend more than his webinar!
Asif S.

I am extremely happy with the way the class was conducted and the instructor Ahmed Ibrahim. Ahmed is not only knowledgeable about the subject matter, but his method of teaching provides great clarity. He strives to make sure that all his students understand the concepts in order to pass the exam. He devotes many hours after class to provide additional help to those who have follow up questions. His unlimited dedication and devotion is rare. I have taken the other more known seismic course before this and it was not until I have taken Ahmed's class that I have a better understanding of seismic. I strongly recommend taking Ahmed ‘s class if anyone wants to pass the seismic exam.

Doug D.
Riverside, RI
The Class was very thorough. From the detailed introduction of the material and pace of the class, to the example problems and sample exams. Dr. Ibrahim gives you all the tools you need to pass the exam. During the lectures, topics are explained thoroughly, and key concepts are identified and emphasized. The problem solving workshops have step by step hints to guide you through each problem. But for me, the easiest way to learn is to do problems, and this course gives you a ton of problems to solve. Throughout the course, Dr. Ibrahim makes himself available for one-on-one help. I just wanted to thank you for the time and the materials you provided. You made it almost impossible not to do well. I am now a registered P.E., and I have Dr. Ibrahim to thank for it.
Kevin C.
La Mesa, CA
Without all the time you put into the lectures, examples, PSWs, consultation hours, simulated exams and most importantly SUMMARY SHEETS, there is no way I would understand as much as I now do about seismic principles and designs. The summary sheet was an amazing help while practicing and during the exam!! Unmatched by anything I ever found or created for my first Seismic Principles test. The textbook is also an amazing resource, well organized and easy to read and follow. It has such an abundance of questions to help study from. Thank you again for everything you have helped me with throughout the past few months. Without your dedication, my dedication to the test would have been pointless.
John T.
Rancho Cucamonga, CA
FANTASTIC!!. I took the test once before taking this class. It was almost as if I studied the wrong materials. This class helped me out tremendously. I have not received my results yet, but was a lot more confident this time around. Honestly, without this class, I could have never hoped to pass on my own.
Bryan D.
Placentia, CA
Dr. Ibrahim has been an excellent instructor with a passion for teaching. The pacing of the class was really good with more in-depth explanation of the seismic principles. The problem solving workshops were an excellent method for teaching the fundamentals and were great reference materials for completing the homework or in the exam. Thank you for your one-on-one support and for being available any time I needed additional help or further explanations.

This class was absolutely necessary for me to take in order to better understand the subject matter. The subject matter was presented in a way that even non structural people such as myself can understand. The material presented in your lectures was explained clearly and I appreciate your time and dedication in helping us to better understand the materials.
Jeanine J.
Vacaville, CA
I have always prided myself as a self-starter, one who could always rise to the challenge on my own and overcome through perseverance and self-reliance. However, in this case, I knew I needed the help of a professional, and as a former teacher, I truly understand teaching excellence and that is Ahmed Ibrahim. The foundational, systematic approach he uses is perfect for understanding both the big picture as well as the many, many calculations associated with these concepts. When it came to learning seismic design and analysis, the cheat sheets and study materials made the process easy. In addition, the flexibility of viewing the class recordings on my own busy schedule as a new father was pivotal in my ultimate success. Thank you for always being available to answer questions, big or small.
Michael L.
San Diego, CA
Great class, well presented by a professional instructor. Ahmed provided me (25 years out of school, Civil Engineering P.E. licensed in a number of eastern states) with a thorough training in seismic analysis. I had to dedicate the time for the classes and the homework while managing a Civil Engineering office. This class gave me the knowledge required to pass. Thank you very much for your great class.
Andrew F.
Highland Mills, NY
I really enjoyed your class. I was never a class room type person because of the interruptions and sidebars that students interject during the lectures. With this type of teaching method, there is no time wasted on traveling to a location. After the class, I can immediately start implementing the lectures into the problems. You also introduced strategy which many instructors do not include in their lectures. Thank you for your informative class and diligent care for your students
Marco M.
Pinole, CA
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
Abeer E.

Your program was just excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed the learning process. Thank you Dr. Ibrahim!. This course presents a totally effective program from the clarity of materials, extremely well organized presentation of topics (both print and lecture), extremely effective example problems, but most important was Dr. Ibrahim personal commitment to success of candidates. Dr. Ibrahim may be the most effective teacher I have ever met, and totally plays the role of a coach. Dr. Ibrahim teaches the material and then coaches the candidates on a personal level to ensure success. During the seismic exam, I recognized readily every problem on the test, thanks to Dr. Ibrahim's teaching and coaching.

I have taken this test five times, and have also taken several classes to better understand the subject matter. Only after this class, I passed the exam. I cannot say enough about how great this class was. I only wish I have taken this class earlier, and saved myself a lot of money and heartaches. This is hands down the best class available and would recommend it to anyone taking the seismic exam. I do not have any structural background and this class provided me with great understanding of the concepts and test taking tips I needed. Ahmed, I wish there were more teachers out there that had your dedication and commitment to seeing their students achieve. You are truly one of a kind.
Kristen W.

The other famous class was good, but Dr. Ibrahim's class is much much better. Thanks again for such a wonderful class. Wish I would've taken it last year!.
Edward W.
Walnut Creek, CA
Unlike other review courses out there; the subject matter approach was to master the fundamentals of the material rather than memorize where to use what formula. Ahmed was a coach and an instructor, always there to explain and encourage. The personal attention paid to each student taking the course was unlike anything I 've ever seen. Simply put, if you are willing to focus and work with Ahmed to learn the seismic analysis of buildings, take this class and feel confident knowing you will be passing the exam. Thanks again Ahmed for all your help.

Thank you so much for all your help. I couldn't have done it without your webinars, study material and your extra time outside of class. I really enjoyed your class. I have explained it to others as "Seismic for Dummies." I like that there was interaction and office hours. Also, I liked that you had access to everything anytime and the whole time. I took other class before and he limits the amount of time you have to watch the on-demand. It was much better to have the freedom to go back and watch a video or join the live webinar any time. It was really helpful how many practice tests you provided. I will highly recommend your course. Thanks again!! I can't say enough how much I appreciate your course.

I want to inform you that I took the exam in late August and have passed the CA Seismic Exam and finally achieved becoming a licensed PE. I want to thank you for all your hard work putting together this excellent course, keeping the videos engaging and answering my homework questions via email. I have never taken a seismic course prior and the concepts were well broken down and easy to understand. I felt confident and well prepared for the exam. This course was very enjoyable where I looked forward to learning everyday and felt more educated afterwards. This was a rewarding experience for me and I will recommend this course to my friends and colleagues. This course was recommended by my college friend and it did not disappoint.

I just wanted to thank you for this wonderful course. The information was very well presented and covered. The exam strategy tips at the end along with the practice exams were extremely valuable. I passed the exam and have finally received my PE license thanks to this course. This is my 3rd time taking this exam. (The first 2 times that I took the seismic exam, I took the in-person course with anohter vendor, which was 8 hr sessions on Sundays. That being said, I liked your on demand course much better for how the information was presented. Outstanding.)
Thank you again,

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.

Dr. Ahmed, I have no words to describe how Thankful I am to you and especially to your teaching skills. You take care and make sure all students are understanding the concept. I went into the exam pretty confident and exit knowing that I would certainly pass the exam. I felt like I got 80-85% questions correct. Two weeks ago, I found out that I had PASSED my Seismic exam. All credit goes to your excellent teaching skills and study material. Your 3 CBT exams are top notch and I think they were the game changer for me. Keep up the good work! I strongly recommend your class to anyone who is either familiar or not with seismic at all. Thank you again!!

Hello Professor,
I'm happy to say I got a notification last night that I passed the Seismic exam! Thank you for your instruction and guidance that prepared me for this success.
I also wanted to thank you for the wonderful experience I had completing this course. I previously completed another Seismic course, which was not well put together and did not prepare me adequately for the exam. I had signed up for that course thinking you were the instructor and decided to stick with it when I realized that wasn't the case anymore, but that ended up being a huge waste of my time and money (and a huge source of frustration). I dreaded the thought of having to spend months completing a whole other course to prepare myself for the exam, but this course made studying as painless as it could be. The lecture videos and materials are extremely thorough and helpful and I truly feel like I was ready for my exam this time.
Thank you again,

Your class was amazing. You really cared about each and every student, and that made the largest difference. I appreciated all of the practice problems you gave during class, and how clear you were in breaking down all of the topics pertinent to the exam. I do believe the problems you gave us were harder than the ones on the exam, which was helpful since it made the exam seem easy. And even some of the trick ones were on it! Thank you so much for your congratulations. It really does mean a lot

I just received my passing notification result. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart on your teachings and the review course you are a part of. It was the deciding factor in me being able to pass this exam. The review course truly offered the necessary tools and preparation needed for me to be able to go into the exam with the confidence, knowledge of the subject matter and the strategy which ultimately resulted in a passing grade. I will be an advocate to your review course. Lastly, my deepest appreciation and respect for your help and availability, even while you were on vacation. Truly one of my best professional experiences thus far.

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.
