For the electrical/computer exam order the sample exam from NCEES. I went through this book a few times and was able to organize/collect/tab the references for the exam. The sample exam book is good preparationfor the exam.
I received my WA state license in the mail today, including the wallet card. Does anyone know if Washington State DOL will also send a wall certificate? I have one for my EIT from WA. Seems weird that they wouldn't send them together.
I sent an emai to the Washington Engineering DOL asking when the website would be updated with licenses and the reponse back was:
Those licenses should be issued around the first week of July.
I took and passed the new format PE Electrical Computer exam. Get the NCEES Sample exam. I used the EERM and mostly a Computer Architecture book by Hennesey and Patterson. A good software engineering text would be good however, I don't know of one.
I took the April 2009 Electrical Computer exam and used the following resources:
Computer Organization and Design, Patterson and Hennessy (very useful)
EERM
NCEES sample problems (very useful)
I too wished I had a good software engineering text. But I feel that with logic and common sense...
