I'm surprised that you didn't use the NEC at all and instead ONLY used the NEC Handbook. 

Agreed, afternoon the first 15 problems were easy. Morning had no stretches like that!

I prefer the larger 11x14! It looks much nicer when compared to others who got theirs in prior years.

Ohio just changed to 11x14 last year, before that they were the standard diploma size.

HOBBY LOBBY is super cheap for frames and they have a ton of them. Half the price of Target/WalMart even. Got a standard nice frame for mine for $9 and it looks professional but not too show-off.

Why would you take the PE test twice?! Can't you take any discipline you wish and be a PE? So confused.

Interesting....this is actually the closest info we've received on EngineerBoards to a Oct 14 Power EE cutoff score. So we now know everyone who passed at least got a 54/80, or 67.5% But yes, you're correct, the cut-off scores are never exactly 56/80 (70%) - they vary and are decided by the...

I don't think it's so much about having a formula sheet as it is having the correct formulas in the right sections. For example, a short circuit MVA question pops up. You need to know to go to a certain book/binder/section, then have all the possible revelant information written THERE. I...

I honestly think the Casio is the best option. It's the quickest for polar conversions and has a good display. I'm sure they are all fine though. I'm not sure how the "solver" on the HP would really be helpful...

I think that the CI tests are definitely a bit easier. Have you done hte NCEES practice? I felt that it was quite a bit harder.

You have over 2 months, that's plenty of time if you dedicate yourself and study study study!!!

Handbook has everything the Code Book has, with some more explanations and graphics. I'd recommend it if you don't use the Code a lot. Actually, regardless, it has good bonus info

Whaaaaaaaaat? That makes no sense, they don't even consider qualifications? I'd probably get out of there as soon as possible. I can't believe a publicly owned utility would do this, I know quite a few and none of them are even remotely similar to this!

Make sure you have this at least: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_device_numbers Knowing these numbers and what standards they relate to is very important for protection knowledge overall.

Except, getting the bare minimum passing result means the least amount of time spent studying. This is *technically* the most efficient way to pass the exam.

HUGE! http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=pe+test+pencil&_from=R40|R40&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xncees+pencil&_nkw=ncees+pencil&_sacat=0

Yes of course check your state's requirements first!

I recommend the embosser because it's more fun and never runs out of ink :)

Well, anything with NCEES is related to the test, right? I thought that was implied, but yes my title could have said "before PE". It would certainty increase pool size of tests, because many people lose interest in the idea after school. Being able to take the test right out of school is a...

Someone on here said they chatted w/ NCEES and they said 2011 will be used 2015 April exam. That doesn't make sense though. The NCEES specifically says that 1 year after the issuance of the latest revision, which was March 2014....
