You can always change jobs. Some A/E firms actually try and talk you out of a PE because they might feel its unneccessary and don't want/need to pay you extra for it (unless you are required to stamp drawings of course). What are your skills and experience? HV, LV, SKM, relay coordination...

I told a few other people I would look into this for them when I get home (working in the field during the week). I'll try and post what I find out next week. Cableguy - Are you the other Aggie that was sitting in the back row with me at Test Masters?

I'm official as of this morning, my EE license number is in the database.

I was back row as well, more towards the center-right side (facing the instructor). I was probably one of the more talkative people in the room. Congrats on passing, Test Masters really helped prepare me.

Party pooper.

Haha, am I the only one that reads the subtle jab at some of the posters who were so worried about the definition of "mid" and "early"? CAPLS has a sense of humor :)

Passed! I was 25 when I took it and just hit the big 2-6 last week.

Thanks for that advice, I will definitely look into the code tomorrow. Just to be on the safeside, as you recommended, I will be sure to indicate which state I am licensed in in my signature block.

You definitely cannot stamp drawings for a project not in your state of licensure. However, you are still able to put "PE" in your signature without recourse (you are, afterall, a professional engineer). I would also make sure of the billing rules, I don't yet know if the company is allowed...

Passed Electrical - Power in CA! Add me to the list!

WORK PROBLEMS! Work 10 times the amount you think is enough. I passed Power on my first try and I'll be honest...the review course and the thousands of problems I worked are why I passed. The great thing about the course is that even with a busy work schedule it forces you to study and work...

Feels amazing, I think waiting for the results was more stressful than preparing for the test. Now, if my Aggies beat LSU tonight my life will be complete!

A colleague that took it last year told me the database was updated before he got his letter.

I take that back, the email just came through.

I know its expensive but a review couse is extremely helpful. Not only do they solidify topics you are unsure of (especially if you aren't a degreed EE) but the amount of problems you work in the class undoubtedly prepares you for the real thing. I took Test Masters Prep for Oct 2010 PE in CA...
