no power guys out thereDOES ANYBODY HAVE GUESS WHAT WILL BE PASSING SCORE FOR ELECTRICAL-POWER.
IS 60% SCORE IS OKAY TO PASS PE
Congrats sir.. me too.. i can only think of 1 question that i surely missed.. around 5 questions though are educated guesses or answered through elimination.. Anyways, im from the Univ. of Houston and i would say that this school taught me a lot to ace the exam..There are at least 3 of us here from Texas that scored a 93. Haven't seen any higher than that though.
On the morning session, I felt unsure about 2-4 questions, and then on the afternoon, probably 6-8 of them. I can think of at least 2-3 that I am sure I missed. But overall, I thought the exam wasn't nearly as bad as I prepared for, and I completed the exam rather quickly.
I can tell you in my case, in Florida 60% of answers correct is not a passing score. So yeah, I'm not too thrilled this morning.DOES ANYBODY HAVE GUESS WHAT WILL BE PASSING SCORE FOR ELECTRICAL-POWER.

Sorry to hear that you didn't pass.On a different topic, without going into details, I did poorly on the Instrument Transformers section and the Devices & Power Electronic Circuits section. Can anyone suggest reference materials or example problems I can look into for that? I was ill prepared for that stuff.

As for instrument transformers, here's a good book you can download for free:
http://www.gedigitalenergy.com/multilin/no...rtsci/index.htm
The Art and Science of Protective Relaying, by GE. One thing it does not have is an index; I made a spreadsheet for an index, printed it out, and I also printed out the whole book. The place I work has a binding machine, and I made many many self-bound books with it.
Another book can be found by Googling blackburn protective relaying pdf - note that it's got some serious errors in non-instrument chapters though (its ANSI device number list in Chapter 1 is completely wrong). Those 2 should be able to get you started on both instrument transformers and transmission system design. In addition, don't forget to just do some plain old Googling... manufacturers like to put a lot of info in their data books on these things (places like GE, ABB, etc).
As for power electronic circuits, more Google-Fu will help you there as well. I found a fair amount of material by just Googling for it.
Did you get the results. According to you how much % of correct answers will pass PE ? is passing vary from state to state or NCEES decide who passed or not ??I can tell you in my case, in Florida 60% of answers correct is not a passing score.

I appreciate all the help from the site.
My friend, I know you are stressed out. But nobody knows the answer to this question. Even if they got their results.Did you get the results. According to you how much % of correct answers will pass PE ? is passing vary from state to state or NCEES decide who passed or not ??
The diagnostic report does tell you the number of correct responses by category. I know I got 48/80 (very humbling to type that) which is 60%. I don't believe you get any report if you pass. I'd be more disheartened to find out if the passing score was 61.25%My friend, I know you are stressed out. But nobody knows the answer to this question.

Most people guess it to be around 70%, plus or minus a couple questions. That's probably about right. But nobody knows.
Do you actually know exactly what percent you got correct? It's always possible you got more correct than you think.
This certainly is nerve-wracking to hear. Now I wonder what scores people have received on the Electrical/Electronics exam (for the ones that failed that is.)The diagnostic report does tell you the number of correct responses by category.

By the way, DO NOT READ INTO THAT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE PASSING SCORE WAS. I could just see that being taken the wrong way.
Yes, in the past many times. If you search this website you can find them.does anybody diagnostic report claims more that 60% correct answers ????
If you are confident in 60 out of 80 you are in good shape.I felt confident in 60 questions I have answered. As for the other 20, I either somewhat knew the content of the material, or had no clue at all. I know for certain that I didn't do well for the Digital Signal Processing questions since I haven't studied it at all (damn you Camara for not covering Butterworth Filters!) nor did I take a class in it during college.
I'm going to go ahead and assume the worst case scenario (i.e. I failed.) I know I tend to make tiny mistakes which cost me points, especially on questions I felt confident on. Given that fact about me, 60 questions is probably not a good confidence margin which doesn't grant me much room for error, especially with the other 20 I had little to no clue about.If you are confident in 60 out of 80 you are in good shape.
On the other 20, pure guessing would give you a few.
So that's well over 70%. Assuming you didn't make a lot of dumb mistakes you should be okay (although, once again, I have no idea of the actual passing score - this is just my feeling).

Time for me to go bug Chelapati to post Volumes II and III of the Electrical manual. I'm not going to wait till January just to be hit with bad news (damn you California for being slow.)
