    Casio FX-570ES in FE exam ? ( same as FX-115ES)

    You can only use the calculators from the NCEES approved list. No they do not have extra's to lend (at least in TN they didn't when I sat) I would buy one from the list. I think the FX-115 ES is $20 or so. Not a deal breaker for sure. No haven't seen the 570 ES BUT have seen the proctor's take...

    October 2012 - Post how long it took your state to issue a License No.

    mtk1, I got my passing letter 12/19/12. My wife sent the $140 fee that day. Board mailed out a notification on 12/28/12 indicating they were pleased to annouce my registration as an engineer, stamp example, etc. Board mailed license and wallet card on 01/03/13. The processing turn around was...

    Any Test Taking Tips for April 2013...

    That's not stupid advice at all. Units are key for sure but also understand what is asked. I think I made the mistake of seeing numbers and started calculating before understanding what was being asked the first time around. Took a calmer approach the second time and passed October 2012's exam...

    School of PE - Thoughts?

    Not that particular course but School of PE Civil morning and Water Resources afternoon live webinar classes. I thought it was very good. The structural portion was great as all remaining portions were as well. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

    October 2012 - Post how long it took your state to issue a License No.

    Tennessee lists it this way: Unapproved Applicant in one field (even after you're approved to sit) Application in process in another After you pass, get the letter and pay the $140 fee it changes to Active-Fully Licensed, date issued and date expires. We renew every 2 years. We also have a...

    Tennessee issues numbers when you apply. I guess they figure you will pass eventually!

    Ordering P.E. Seal in TN

    I looked at seals for TN on engineerseals.com. Seems reasonable to me. I ordered my TN land surveying stamps from Clancy's Service Stamp Co in Knoxville. Can't remember the cost. Of course it was back in 2004. I got the same email from TSPE. The costs are high but guess it supports TSPE. I'm...

    Congrats to everyone who passed. To those who failed, carry on. All you can do is adjust your study habits to focus on weaker areas and knock it out in April. DON'T SIT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION DEPTH!!!! Kidding.

    Where to start?

    Get the NCEES suggested references and use them along with any other references you think will help. I've noticed the exam relies heavily on those practice question references. Take School of PE (or another refresher course) since you've been away for awhile. Expensive but worth it I feel...

    PE, RLS, PLS, RE, etc.

    Yeah. I like it as well. So you can call yourself a PE due to multiple states? For instance, VTEnviro, PE I'm going to email my board. They are very responsive.

    Has anyone used this reference?

    I have the ppi book. I used it during my study period but never opened it for my exam. Passed October 2012's Water Resources exam. I strongly encourage the Davis/Cromwell book. Answered several questions from that book. Also used Applied Hydraulics by Mott extensively. My suggestion: get the...
