CELE Geotechnical Engineering — Soil ClassificationFlash Cards
Flashcards for Soil Classification reviewers. Front of card: a question or prompt. Back of card: the answer plus a short explanation. Every card is calibrated to the way CELE tests Soil Classification in its Geotechnical Engineering subtest.
Exam context
Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) — Board of Civil Engineering runs the Civil Engineer Licensure Examination on May and November 2026. Its Geotechnical Engineering section sits under a "Core" weighting, and Soil Classification is the 2nd chapter in the 11-chapter CELE Geotechnical Engineering rotation. The CELE passing mark is 70% weighted average, no sub-test below 50%, and the most recent 2026 paper drew about a meaningful share of questions from Geotechnical Engineering.
