Post the location and what you were doing when you received the news that you passed the PE. In my case, It was December 2011, I was at KFC eating(not a good healthy choice) with my wife and I searched on my old iPhone 4 to see if the results were posted on NCEES. Then notice that a link was...

I believe DC is not in the PE exam specifications...but is always good to understand DC as well.

I recomend to do as much problems as you can...you need to develop a pretty good way on how to solve complex problems efficiently and fast and you get that knowledge by solving and solving problems. I finished my pe test early and i had time to solve the difficult ones after the first round...

I know...is a lot..when are you taking the test?

Yup i still remember when i post that :)

I also heard that Kaplan can do more harm than good...the problems are harder than the actual exam and i think i heard it have a bunch of errors...but that was 3 years ago dont know if new revisions have been released

If I was you I wouldn't worry about it. Not every review book covers 100% of any of the exams. In some questions you would be on your own to solve them. The key to pass is study study and solve a loooot of problems.

Complex imaginary have a few errors. If its 3 phase you have to use sqrt of 3

still too low. we are not living in the early 90's any more.

Very true. Is very low. It shall be at least 85K minimum.

Did you called them and ask for the status? If i have questions i always call the board. When i submitted my reciprocity for pe to 9 states at the same time CA was the first to get all done. i think it only took like a month. They are pretty fast if everything is in order.

This could be multiple factors. Are you willing to move? Are you looking locally only? Is the area that you are living have good demand for electrical engineers? Is your experience based on something very specific or something that have a lot of demand. Do you have friends or contacts that have...
