    PE exam - October 2011

    NCSUO265, Mr. Subu told me on the phone that it is the elaborated on with 90 plus questions and that match the percentage of problems on the actual exam. Like Met1 said, its good to use it to test yourself, but also think that it'll help you to track where you are on your review process.

    PE exam - October 2011

    Agree with you, Nayak at TMS is the contact I've been talking to and he keeps telling me that the new review material will be ready in a few more days. The clock is ticking and is about time to start studying.

    PE exam - October 2011

    Done4, I think you are ready to go straight to your PE. Again, you need to get with your State Board and NCEES. Highly recommended, there is no easy way out of this. Good Luck Pal.

    PE exam - October 2011

    Don4, The best way to find out about the PE rules and regulation is to contact NCEES directly, and to find out more about your State Board is also contacting them directly or going on their website. If you call them they should take a few minutes to answer all your questions. In Texas you need...

    PE exam - October 2011

    The NCEES have had a review material for this test, but it's not has thorough as the one they are working now. Also i wanted to say that you don't necessary need to be working under a PE to take the exam. Years of experience and education would qualify you. You do need 3 PE references that...

    PE exam - October 2011

    I heard that NCEES has had talks about making this test a Standardized one, that exact same test for all candidates, but I doubt that they would do anything soon.

    PE exam - October 2011

    You might want to check on your level of candidacy, whether you need to take the FE or go straight to PE with an FE waiver. That's what I did. If you have a number of years of experience and have a PhD or even a Master's degree, they may waive the FE for you, but you need to check with the NCEES...

    PE exam - October 2011

    I did talk to Samsa too, but she directed me to Nayak Subu, as far I know he is the one who put the exam together with the committee. He is sort of helping me 101 because I am researching each individual subject that is listed on the exam specification and he would let me know what would be the...

    PE exam - October 2011

    The 2011 PE exam was my second attempt in passing this exam. I talked to NCEES about my frustration because I felt I was not reviewing the right study material. NCEES told me that this exam is not difficult at all because all the questions are designed to answer in six minutes. The problem is...
