    Asking for a raise after passing the PE Exam.

    Feel free to add to the survey from the last test round I created, we had 102 folks already surveyed at the time of this post: It is anonymous and if we keep adding every test round it would be a great repository for folks in coming years to see what they might be able to expect!

    Texas Test Results

    Currently watching my co-workers squirm and wearing out their F5 buttons on the NCEES and TBPE websites.  :old-025:  They thought I was crazy last testing period on results day for doing the same thing. Chins up everyone, hope everyone passes!

    Small Firm. Type of Computer to buy for CAD

    We use Microstation SelectSeries4 and GEOPAK all day everyday, have been into the OPENROADs 3D modeling (for the past 2 years).  Microstation is still single-threaded software for 99% of what the program does, only the rendering of a model is multi-threaded. Basically what it means is that you...

    What To Do Exam Week

    This is exactly what I brought but I wish I would have bought something on wheels. Everything fit into the single milk crate but it really sucked to carry it around with the weight of all my material (which was only the testmasters binder broken out into subjects, goswami reference manual, and...

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    It isn't re-asking, due to the nature of the poll there's was no other way to gauge whether folks were getting both a raise and a bonus or just one of them. You can see that at this point 36 voted no raise, 47 voted no bonus, but only 11+13 voted they not both no raise and no bonus based on if...

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    Not sure if you have to be a Supporting Member AND meet a "number of posts" requirement or just the post requirement. I previously was unable to edit even after the supporting membership, but now i can. Maybe 25 or 30 posts?

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    After further reading of the Texas legal document you are correct, they can waive the FE and the PE but for the PE waiver you have to have been licensed previously in a state or territory. I suppose this could help those who obtained a PE License before the exam existed to get a Texas License...

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    Just like to thank everyone for the replies and at this point 58 members have voted! Congrats to those being rewarded! Just adding my  :2cents: I firmly believe it is heavily dependent on the industry you work in even more so than the size of the company. Being in Texas I know a bunch of...

    So...How long did you study what was your game plan and what was your result

    WRE, Passed 1st Attempt, 82% (Texas) Similar story here, I took Testmasters in Dallas with the WRE depth and spent some time working on the WRE sections during the "Non-Required" days for Testmasters where they focused on the other depth sections. (72 hrs required + 16 hours non-required time)...

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    Dang, should have added that to the last question! I also did not have to use a vacation day for the actual exam day. I did use vacation to make the TestMaster class dates but they were willing to let me work extra hours during the week to make up for them and they offer a 9/80 schedule which...

    Did you get a raise / bonus / perks after getting your PE?

    No names will be posted! You can add company info in your replies at your own risk :) Hopefully I set this up correctly but you should be able to select multiple answers on the last question.  Just a curiosity poll on how our companies are rewarding folks after becoming a PE. I don't want...

    Review Course Pass/Fail

    One of my Coworkers was also in the class with us and passed the Construction Management Depth. Testmasters is big in my office, almost everyone here has chosen them for their review course. There are at least 15 people I currently / previously worked with who took Testmasters and passed first...

    Review Course Pass/Fail

    Great to hear the class worked out for you too! I have complaints about the class but now I don't really care to elaborate since it worked out in the end. I had the WRE depth and felt like that was the portion of the class with the weakest instructor / notes. In the end it the notes really had...
