    California Contractor Class "A" License Requirements - Does it require a B.S. in Engineering and/or a Professional Engineering License?

    Thank you. I just called this place: />http://www.contractorschool.com/ And they confirmed that the Class A - Engineering - does not require a degree of any kind, just experience. This confirms that the Class A is outside of the scope of Professional Engineering.

    Other than this link from the California State Licensing Board: http://www.cslb.ca.g...gContractor.asp and some general references, I have been searching all over Google Sucks Sucks to find the requirements for a Class A engineering contractor in the State of California. Despite using the...

    Examination Deferral? Application approved, changing from October-2011 to April-2012?

    I've taken the exam before and scheduled to take it again October-2011. Application paid and approved with both State of California and NCEES. I'm not prepared to take it in October. Is it possible to roll everything, $275 payment, NCEES approvals, etc. to April-2011? Essentially a deferral...

    101 Solved Mechanical Engineering Problems

    Thank you. I have respectable source of advisement, an instructor of a program who's students have an 80% pass rate on the MEPE, who recommended 101 problems for my particular and unique situation at this point. It might not be for everyone, but I just failed to pass the first time around and...

    Fail - ME Thermo & Fluid Systems - Highest Fail Score?

    ^ Thanks for that information. It's encouraging. I got 37/80. I plan to take it in April-2011, and if necessary, October-2011, April-2012, and October-2012. As long as I see a progression and improved scores, I'll continue. I was shocked. I thought I clearly got 50/80 correct, not...

    Re-Registration? In the event of not passing?

    I'm awaiting the PE results. In the, hopefully, unlikely event that I didn't pass, is there an automatic re-registration process?

    What are the chances that I passed the PE?

    First timers and repeat takers are independant and mutually exclusive from the overall pass rate of 55%. I should note that the pass over the past seven tests, excluding an easy exam that had a 62% pass rate on year, avaraged about 52% and ranged from 48% to 56% (a calculation I did by looking...

    What are the chances that I passed the PE?

    I read on the NCEES's web site that they don't release the cutoff score because it always changes on each exam. While the pass rates might be similar, the cutoff certainly varies. We may reasonably assume that 70% is likely pass, and we may also assume that the cutoff is usually a little below...

    What are the chances that I passed the PE?

    Maximums, Thanks for all the great advice on this matter. I am going on a three-week vacation soon which I planned months ago. My review teacher said the cutoff is generally a little below 70%. Of course, the Thermo people are feeling good about this test, hence, the cutoff may be on the...
