    Preparing for PE

    Just Curious, Why wouldn't you knock out the FE exam instead (I'm not trying to be condescending)? Most of the FE exams are computerized now and they take approximately 6 hours to complete instead of 8. Plus, they are offered multiple times per year instead of the October and April time...

    Failed my electronics PE exam need help

    Good deal! At your convenience (after you pass), could you share your experience with School of PE? I've heard mixed stories, but none of them were for Electronics P.E. Just Curious. Good Luck, Hope you pass!

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

    I'll throw my two cents in. My company also doesn't really "care" or have a need for licensed engineers; (paraphrasing HR) "None of engineering jobs required the PE, so we don't care if you have it." However, I have noticed every promotional Engineering job I applied for within my company, I...

    Failed my electronics PE exam need help

    Asmetal, Sadly, I don't remember all the videos I researched. I do remember watching videos from Rolinychpetin's Channel and Raiya Energy Academy's Channel. I know Raiya Academy is focused on the FE/EIT side, however it helped me relearn bode plots. Rolinycheptin's Videos are great for grasping...

    One Month Out

    tru2YM, That is a great idea. At this point, the last month is the time to tie off loose ends. Before I passed (2nd attempt), I was closer to 1 and 3.  I remember taking my time on the last month to re-study on areas I was weak in and refresh the exam as a whole. I find it best to practice...

    How important is abet accreditation?

    I think its very important. I agree with Surf and Snow, many employers only accept ABET accredited Engineers. I know the company I work for (Shipyard) and several surrounding companies flat out say "Must be ABET Accredited." Plus, ABET accredited allows you to sit for the P.E. IMO, its...

    Grading/Cut Score Theories - GO!

    According to PE Sample Questions and Solutions: Electrical and Computer Engineering (ISBN: 9781932613117), "NCEES does not use a fixed-percentage pass rate such 70% or 75% because licensure is designed to ensure that practitioners possess enough knowledge to perform professional activities in a...

    How to pass PE Electrical and Electronics

    Those are very good pointers. I've failed the test the first time as well (pass the second). The trick is to never give up.

    FE - Electrical ; Need help on Study materials

    Some Engineers reported using a hand full of training videos from http://electronicspeprep.com/ to aid in passing the FE. It might be too in-depth on most subjects, however some training videos target the same core concepts (Norton, Thevenin, Truth Tables, etc.). Based on the feedback, the...
