Congratulations to all those who passed the PE or EIT.
I'm moving to Manhattan and am looking for a civil design consulting job. Anyone know PE pay range? I got my PE in 2006 and I think I just low-balled myself when asked about what I was looking for. I said $80k and I heard silence, then I...
Good luck all. My words of advice to you is to execute the easy questions. Don't rush them so you can spend more time on the harder ones because you don't need 100% to pass. Take all the gimmies you can find. And watch UNITS UNITS UNITS.
Also, I practiced studying for long sittings at a time. My boyfriend was studying for the GMAT so both of us would study together for hours and hours. Sitting in a room for 8+ hours taking a test is absolutely awful. You should try and practice concentrating for at least half this time...
I also heard that 48 was the magic number to shoot for. The cut may vary +3 but usually it's around 48. I was in a panic when I saw people get 49's and fail.
I felt really good walking out of the exam but made the awful rookie mistake of telling everyone I though I did well. So while waiting for results, I thought I jinked myself and failed. Luckily I passed and won't need to do the walk of shame back to the office.
What worked for me was actually doing the problems and working them out. Don't just look at it and say you can do it (unless you run out of study time) but practice going through the units conversions.
Read through the CERM.

Hi all, lone time reader...just registered today to tell everyone Hawaii PE results are in. Sent from the Hawaii Board on 12/29. I passed the Civil WR part.
Good luck to the rest of you Hawaiians out there!
