Mr. Boardway,
I wanted to write you and let you know the process I went through to pass this exam. At first, I tried many educational products including Audio, sample exams, reference material, and more. After failing this exam I came across your site and signed up for your course I knew I had found the right way to study for this exam. Everyone has a different way of learning and I think what is unique about your materials is it tackles all the ways we learn visually, through audio, and through reading. With this cohesive package I passed and I am so grateful for the course you provided. I plan on posting your course on the social media sites I am participating in advertising your preparation for the CSE and bringing others to this realization of studying.
Thanks,

Dear Professor Boardway,
I passed the CSE exam last week after going through your mock exams and signing up for your live teleconference class. The invaluable “coaching” I received from you made a tremendous difference in understanding the mindset and thinking about how to be a competent and successful practitioner in the state of California… I had failed my first attempt at the CSE assuming I could just do a course of self-study with piles of data, rules, and regulations to memorize and rely on my own working knowledge. After I failed during my first attempt this past summer- I knew I had to do something different and that’s when I researched and came across your website.
Thank you, again, for helping me accomplish my goal of passing the CSE exam.
Warmest regards,
Susanna C., NY

Mike–
I’d recommend the MBA 3: 1 – 1 Day Workshop to anyone wanting to pass the California Supplemental Exam. The material and covered topics were right on point, especially since I was from out of state and unfamiliar with California practice. The bottom line was I had failed CSE the first time before taking this class with Prof. Boardway. I really felt this class was instrumental in my passing CSE two months later.

Mike;
Your information and problem examples were right on target! In the graphic section, I think I read too much about the light levels on the program and may have not cleared the section. But I felt good about the preparation of your study guides and the test itself.
So whether I passed or not I felt the test was fair.
Will try to catch up tomorrow by phone.
Thank you!

“I can recommend The Procrastinators Package from Prof Boardway. He’ll get you on a schedule and down the road to PASS. His practical knowledge is invaluable along with his extensive experience with test content. There’s lots of chatter online regarding what is or is not acceptable for Graphic Solutions. His feedback and insights on Graphic methodology and application are conservative and worthwhile. I’ve passed 4 in a row with one retake remaining. I believe Prof Boardway’s assistance has made a difference for me.” 9/30/14

Dear Professor Boardway, I took your seminar some time ago when the last CSE Oral Test was still up and running, and I finally got my California License this summer. Although I didn’t pass the oral and had to take the written format test to really pass the exam I learned a lot from your seminar not just for the exam but also how to present things orally in a convincing way. so I wanted to thank you for the valuable teaching. Thanks.

Michael, wanted you to know that I passed my CSE exam at last. Thanks for your help. In my case study materials are not as valuable as how to approach the reading and answering of questions. I had minimal time for part one, and plenty of time for part two. Went back and read all of the parts two questions a second time. The drawings were a separate hard copy handout 11 x 17. I screwed up and started the computer log-in as soon as I sat down. Which starts the clock running. I had drawings in my hand and should have looked at them for a while before starting the computer login. Would have been free time and I needed it. After you finish part one you can’t go back to it. Also, I took a bathroom break in the last 5 min of part one, on the clock. Should have waited until Part two as it was a lot less rushed. I had time in part two to review all 100 answers, go to the bathroom again, and still leave ten minutes early.

Hi Professor Boardway,
Thanks for all of your help. Over the weekend, I received word that I passed the exam, and am thrilled to have done so!!! In any case, I won’t need to keep up with your exam seminars so could I please be taken off that circulation list? If, on the other hand, there are professional continuing education seminars that you offer, please feel free to let me know. Thanks so much and wishing you continued success… – Arlene

Just wanted to let you know that my Nov 15th Exam was a success and I am finally done with all these exams.

Good luck with your courses in the future.

(After passing the exam – Yenny writes);
Boardway’s seminars were definitely very helpful based on his many years of experience and knowledge, particularly in the categories of “Management and Design” and “Construction”. Beyond that, the tips that he gave on the way to approach the questions and the methodology behind presenting the answers were extremely useful. The mock exam sessions, which were a part of the workshops, not only refined the way candidates were to present their answers but, more importantly, built a sense of confidence. However, I understand that he will continue on conducting seminars for candidates. Yenny N.

Mr. Boardway,
I passed, for the first time. How well did the rest of the group do? I went way too deep in my studies, your seminar grounded me. You can take me off your email list now. I would recommend you. You are professional and well-presented. Thank you. Neil L.
==================

Dear Michael,
I received my letter from the Board, for my successful completion of the Exams. All of my colleagues, who recommended and had taken your seminar, passed on the first try and I did not want to be the one who altered the tradition here. I wanted to say, that your seminar was extremely helpful in preparing me for the exam. There was a mammoth of information to cover and retain, but you really helped to streamline the process. I have recommended you to a colleague who decided not to take your seminar, and is now faced with the new format and having to study again. Also, thank you again for sending the information when I was unable to attend one of the scheduled seminars. Cordially, Cesar Q. – California

Hi Michael,
I am writing to let you know that I PASSED my exam!! I want to thank you for your class and help, especially the 3 private tutoring sessions.

Thank you very much again. Jensen W. – California

Professor,
I just want to write you this email to thank you for all your help. Without you, I could not have passed my Exam. You made me aware of the areas that I needed to focus on. I went home and used your advice to perfect my presentation and commitment and it worked. I still can’t believe I’m an Architect now. Without you, this wouldn’t be possible. To everyone out there who is thinking about utilizing Professor Boardway’s expertise, please do so. The money paid is a small price compared to the knowledge and insight gained! You’re the best Professor! Steven T. – Stockton, Calif.
