    Passed the PE? How dd you do it?

    Don't get panic. Believe me, you still have enough time, and what you need now is concentration, write not just read. I just sent an email to a co-worker to return the two books I borrowed before the April exam, and it was 29 days before the exam. This site provides all information you may...

    FAIL FIRST TIME ! NEED HELP

    Although I don't think you need that much study to pass PE, I do think it would benefit you a lot, not just to earn the PE, consider taking it as an opportunity to study for the knowledge, which is rare after graduating from the college.

    After PE Exam

    I understand how you feel. I didn't get reference letters from my group for all kinds of excuses, but still managed to find other nice PEs from different departments.

    NCEES Texas
