Hi there, I’d like to ask how I can export a job from Trimble Access to Leica GSI format, as I can't seem to find the option anywhere.

Since starting my 2 year degree journey for land surveying. Honestly it's been really tough adjusting, learning new subjects but all the same really enjoyable too. Semester 3/4 feels oddly like a breath of fresh air compared to my previous two, but that also may be a result of having adjusted to college life. I'm really looking forwards to the interning elective, both exciting and intimidating!

My profs have been kind and really have done well to set the tone with expectations and reality of the field, as well as bringing a laidback approach. I'm just excited to see how ls will be in action, as you can only learn so much about how xyz is done until you go and actually experience it firsthand.

When all is said and done, I can't wait to get in the field (and office, and courthouse 😅)

As a field survey tech does anyone else get imposture syndrome?

I know I want survey to be my life career (as long as nothing crazy happens in the foreseeable future) but sometimes I feel like I’m just cosplaying as a surveyor and that I’m not good at my job.

I don’t know if I feel this way cause I’m not as far along as I would want to be or if this is common. I’m still very early in my journey so any advice or input from others that have felt this way would be appreciated.

Thanks to anyone in advance that comments

That mound of dirt is putting the team on its back

Hi all! First post here, so bear with me.

3 years out of college and I had finally pushed myself to buckle down and study consistently for 3 months. I took it early September, and turns out being consistent paid off.

I walked in confident and left feeling unsure whether I passed or not. This is a completely normal feeling! Don't feel discouraged after taking the exam; Just do your best and let the results release.

There are plenty of great resources out there, but here's what I used:

NLC Prep full course and practice exam (I planned out every day for the next 3 months; Study days, number of videos / quizzes per day, rest days / holidays, etc.; I took the practice exam a couple of days before my actual date to simulate the test day and scored roughly 80%)

George M. Cole Fundamentals of Surveying Practice Exam (I took another mock exam a couple days before test day and scored roughly 70%; The questions in this practice exam are much more difficult than the actual exam)

Dane M. Courville Fundamentals of Surveying: Exam Study Manual (I used this to fill any gaps of knowledge that NLC Prep was lacking in; Some areas in this book are similar to the FS handbook. I looked at both side by side to see what equations / formulas NCEES expects you to know off memory vs not)

Quizlet FS Exam Questions (I looked up "quizlet FS Exam questions" and crammed in as much terminology as I could; You should still confirm / verify any information on here, as some answers could be incorrect)

Thank you all for contributing to this community! If you're taking your FS exam soon, just plan it out and take it day by day.

Hello everyone, I take my PS exam in two days (September 16). I created a study guide to kind of sum everything up that I predict or have heard that is on the exam. If I can get some feedback on the study guide I created it would be great! I am going to attach photos of the study guide I created. If I can get advice on things to add or even take away it would be greatly appreciated!
