I used Object Oriented and Classical Software Engineering by Stephen R Schach when I was preparing for the PE back in 2010. I found it to be very helpful. It was also easy to read. I hope this helps. Brian

hmm that's interesting. i took the PE exam in Oct 2010 and my number is 31614. i know it doesn't really matter now that results have been mailed. how did you determine the last PE #? just print out the entire list?

You need to check with your state board. Alabama allows a non-PE to verify your work experience, but the non-PE has to fill out a mini-application listing his/her experience. The wording is something similar to this: The board will allow the non-PE person to verify your experience if the board...

I took the computer exam this fall and passed. i found this thread to be very helpful in selecting texbooks for areas that I was missing. Computer Depth good luck and let us know if you have specific questions. there are a few computer guys on this forum. Brian

have any of you folks who got your results last Friday received the letter back with license number yet? I was curious how long that might take. I didnt get my results up here in the northern part of the state until this past Monday.

I took the computer exam in Oct 2010 and my wife just called to tell me that I passed! I wanted to thank you guys for this thread. I dug this thread up earlier this year and it really helped me find some books for the areas I'm pretty soft in and and didnt have very much of a reference for. I...

my wife just called and i passed also!! it's a big relief to have the official confirmation so you can stop second guessing all your answers. Brian

my wife just called from home and I got my results also. I passed!! I'm glad that is over.. haha I'm in northern AL and we had to wait ALL weekend. Brian

I just checked the mail.... and no results today in Huntsville, AL. maybe you folks closer to Montgomery will get results today! Brian

have any of you computer guys received results yet? Alabama is a snail mail state, so it will probably be some time between Friday and next Wednesday before i know how i did. Brian

29 electricals out of how many total? If we all think we did great on the test, NCEES probably thought it was easy too and our cut score could be really high, right? That's the only thing that has me worried at the moment. I think there were 232 total in Alabama in April of this year. This is...

haha sorry for the confusion... wrapped around the axle is an expression meaning going around in circles.. for instance i got wrapped around the axle on that question = i kept going around and around in circles trying to determine the correct answer. Brian to my knowledge there were no axle...

I know exactly how you feel Anthony. I didn't pick up on the question I thought was 'ambiguous' until I checked my answers. I then got wrapped around the axle going in circles because I really thought you could argue either way. I didn't want to assume it was wrong and move on either, because I...

I haven't come across those numbers anywhere. The last time Alabame gave the PE test I think there were 29 electricals total. they didnt break it out by electrical discipline. I'd like to see the number as well. Hopefully we are thinking about the same question as being ambiguous. It seems like...

I tried to be very conservative meaning that if I wasn't 100% sure of the answer I marked it as wrong. I think that I came up with 8 in the morning so that would put me around 32/40. during the afternoon I was on a big roll until I hit somewhere around the middle and skipped several in a row to...
