You need to have someone check for you if it is not there by then. But only have them call and tell you if you pass. That would kill my vacation if I found that out in the middle.

YES. Although, it is a wedding, where I am a groomsmen, so I will be drinking heavily to begin with. My liver might think its worth it to get the "wedding" and "failed the PE" drunk out of the way in the same catastrophe.

 
Yeaaaaa. If you look at that link to the other thread I sent, the last few years have a "method" column. Thank you for pointing out that MO does it by email! I totally didn't see that. Now I will have to look while on vacation...

 
In PE exam, does it allow to bring practice problem books?
Depends on your state. After you apply, you will get a candidate agreement form that will outline anything that is considered a banned item. In MO, where I just took the PE, anything that was "bound" was allowed. Basically, a staple is not considered bound. So, I took in the practice tests, hand written notes (in a 3 ring binder), books, etc.

Do a quick search around the forum and see if anything pops up for your state. Or, wait for the necessary paperwork from the NCEES & your state.

 
This wait is really driving me crazy. I hope that I don't have to study in the summer too. My wife would kill me if I had to be locked in the basement for another three months. Especially since we are having a kid in June. ohh well. 1 week down 7 more to go!
Congrats! My wife was pregant when I was studying for the exam - my daughter was born a few days before the test - I blame the distraction on why I didnt pass the first attempt.

If you made it great - if not just allocate time-

Enjoy the next 8-10 weeks-

Thank you very much for the information. I am in Masschusetts state. Is there any way to check the rule in MA before get the paperwork from NCEES?

Usually in the back of the Buick.........

..... oh... you're talking about the exam.... nevermind. :oops:

... We need to start a group. Post PE Anonymous. Friday was test day. Saturday was a recovery day of rest and relaxation. And Sunday was like "wait, what's it like to have a life again?"
The "group" has been started. It's called EngineerBoards.com - it's like a brotherhood (sisterhood) of all of us who have been in this situation

:waitwall:
I hear the back seat of a Volkswagon is rather uncomfortable...

The 'group' has a birthday this coming week! Six years of DV and me mercilessly ripping each other, whoda thunk it.

 
And we're all really grateful for that! This board has provided a source of amusement over the past week while waiting for results. Not to mention all the useful into while prepping for the exam.

 
yea this board is awesome. Good entertainment too!

Boy I was goin' good wasnt botherin me about the wait for results.... then Sunday morning I woke up and was thinking, holy crap it has only been a week. !!!!!

I took the exam in MA and they had no issues with bringing in sample problems or sample exams. To be honest, they didn't even care about loose things where I took it. There were people there with loose 11x17 psychrometric charts and the proctors didn't say anything.

Not here in NY. No food not even hard candy was allowed in. I had to set my bag of life savers up front! Thats ok though. I didnt even have time to think about it anyhow. Our proctor was cool.

 
^ That's really strange. I had brought in a gatorade, couple granola bars and hard candies but didn't even touch them until the lunch break.
