About the FS Exam

The FS exam is generally the first step in becoming professionally licensed. The 6-hour exam consists of 110 exam questions. This exam is computer-based, meaning that participants can take the exam at an NCEES-approved Pearson VUE test center.

Exam applicants who take the FS exam are typically pursuing professional careers as licensed surveyors. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, “Surveyors make precise measurements to determine property boundaries. They provide data relevant to the shape and contour of the Earth’s surface for engineering, mapmaking, and construction projects.”
