I have worked for Utilities and Contractors that work for Utilities and know what you mean by moving around more. Gets old sitting at a desk all day. First Id say get your PE before you leave. It will help you land a job at a Utility easier (If you don't already have it). I never use mine but...

I took the Computer PE last year and sort of had the same experience as you. I graduated with a CompE degree and worked for an Electric Utility for 5 years. My major roles were programming and SCADA work all of which related to power distribution. I had no problems in getting accepted to take...

I doubt it, there really was not very much stuff on networking and from the percent breakdown its only worth 10% and 5% of that should have been covered in the class. The only thing that might help is a network plus book because it talks about different protocols etc. May not even want to study...

Thanks for picking up some of my books, Ill get them in the mail today. Here are a few more that I highly recommend. They were either borrowed, already sold, or I am keeping them. I have also put the ISBN # so you can pick them up on Amazon or Half. Upgrading and Repairing PC’s (ISBN...

Well glad to say I passed both the FE (Oct 2008) and the PE (April 2009). I am selling the books I used to pass both exams. They are all listed on Half.com except for the review DVD’s are on Ebay. All of the prices I put up are the same or lower than anyone else. Thought I would put up the links...

East TN results in... PASSED BABY!!!

Hey Brother, I took the exam this April, think I did well but still have some time before I know if I passed. I think all of your questions have been asked in this topic "http://engineerboards.com/index.php?showtopic=6001". Good luck.

Hey Joe, Glad to know got someone else out there waiting on the results too, wish you luck. There is a thread on here somewhere that shows when people received there results for past years. Here in TN I am hoping for end of June. One thing I got to thinking about the other day is wonder if...

Not a problem, after going back and looking at the sample test don't guess I should say surprised. Some really good examples are problems 121, 520, 521 from the sample exam. Really just basic circuits and electronics type stuff. Cant say I really studied at all for those subjects and did not...

Those are both great examples to know well for the test (#510 and #513). I took the real deal last Friday and I can tell you knowing those helped. As for #510 this covers several types of things you might see. But really it is an easy problem to solve. It gives you the Instruction Register...

I took the test last October after being out of school 5 years. I was able to do the morning general easy but the afternoon is way harder because I have never had like 1/2 of the stuff on it (i.e. Thermo, Fluids, Mech & Mat, etc.). Based on what a fellow EE told me I took the afternoon...

Those were all based off your recommendations, really glad I found this site before I took the test, Thanks! I actually did not think I would use the repairing PC's book at all during my studying but there were some crazy standards type questions on the test and found several in this book.

Another PE wanabe here. I took the Computer test this weekend also. Wanted to see if anyone else did? Below are the books I used… Dictionary of Computer and Internet Terms (ISBN: 978-0-7641-3417-3) Computer Systems and Design and Architecture (ISBN: 0-8053-4330-X) Digital Design Principles...
