Reviews for Fundamentals of Surveying: Exam Study Manual

"""Great Resource! I just passed the FS last week on the first try thanks to this manual!"" (By: Matt D. 3/2021) ""I wanted to thank you for the Fundamentals of Surveying study material you mailed me. I really enjoyed reading about your career and how you lived and surveyed in multiple states across the US. It is an excellent book and captures so much information - summarized. I'm excited to share that I passed my FS exam and your book helped me a lot. Great work compiling it. I immigrated from South Africa in 2013 and the culture change was massive but I'm fortunate because the survey language and principles are the same all over the world. My next goal is to become licensed and was wondering if you have any material for the PS exam? Do you offer any lectures?"" (By: Phillip D. 2/2021) ""Hi Dane! EXCELLENT BOOK! It arrived today and I'm impressed! You seem to be a natural educator!! Thanks for putting this together for the up-and-coming land surveyors!!"" (By: John D. 2/2021) ""I am benefiting from this manual. Thanks!"" (By: Chad L. 2/2021) ""Enjoying the manual."" (By: Greg G. 2/2021) ""Folks, to those of you that come here and check this out, that study guide is worth it's wait in gold. It is on par with what you would learn in a 4-Year program and lets you explore additional topics that you might not experience in office or field. I used it along with my course work and passed the first time. (By: sflandsurveyor 2/2021) ""This Manual is great! Exactly what I was looking for to prepare."" (By: Theo B. 5/2021)"
