So, all that annoying studying I did for the EPPP1? It paid off! I got a 730, which means (if I have the scale right…?) that I KICKED A**!!!
The passing score for Texas is 500, and it’s a little higher for CA and some other places. I think (?) I got it all goin’ on, whichever state, province or territory I may wish to practice in. Course, I don’t wish to really practice (much) anywhere. But still. One more exam, and I can has license. The other exam is in July, in Austin2. And the application and money are due tomorrow. Yeah, yeah. Poor planning. We’ll see. Otherwise, I’ll take Orals in January. Whatevah.
Now that I passed that suckah, there’s only a few things left to do:
- Pass orals
- Get my license
- Sell my EPPP study materials to someone more desperate than I was when I bought them
- Write a post detailing the picky annoyances of the test and the study materials
- Oh, maybe get some kind of professional work opportunity or something, to try to pay back the stupid big expense of getting this far

Hey Congratulations, that is an awesome score :) Good Luck with orals, etc. From my experience they were a lot easier than the EPPP (though I’m sure it depends on what state, etc.) ;)
As it turns out, I just added a new classified ad to my website/collection of EPPP resources if you had any study materials you were looking to pass on to others-

Thanks and Good Luck!
Todd,
I *am* in fact looking to pass on my materials. However, I have left them in Texas, and I’m in Canada until August. :( Despite their sometimes-unprofessional flaws, the books and CDs (which I ripped to mp3s for my convenience in walking all over town while studying) were extremely helpful. As others have said, several of the exact questions from the materials were, in fact, on the exam. I’ll be looking to sell them cheap, along with the several practice exams I still have not taken on the website (as long as they still work; the time for taking them may run out at some point). But, as I said, I’m stuck in Canada for a while.
I am interested in buying an EPPP related materials..please email me! thanks!
Hey there,
Congrats!
Can you please tell me which study materials you used…I’m in Ontario and about to start studying…Blah!
Thanks in advance.
Hey, no kidding. I’m in Ontario (right now) too. My wife lives here, and I come up as much as I can. I used the “Academic Review” package. It comes with books, CDs (annoying CDs that have one or two massive audio tracks per CD, so you have to split them into smaller ones yourself if you want to rip them to MP3s), and online practice tests. I have to agree with everyone else in saying the online tests were, overall, the most critically helpful. However, I also had a good experience with the books and audio portions. It’s hella expensive, though. I forked over like $500 for a mucho-awesome package, and that was a reduced price buying the whole shebang from a friend of mine who had decided to move to New Mexico (where they don’t require the EPPP at all, apparently).
