indeed!  Happy Birthday kind sir!

This kind of rubs me the wrong way. There are no spark notes for the PE exam.   If you can determine all the values in a transmission system, great, you can probably get away with minor studying in that subject area and some refresher notes.   If you have no idea how a motor works or how to...

I'd Concur.  But I didn't want to be that guy (or girl... or ze... or organic lifeform thingy?  to much PC terms to remember now!)

Close enough.  :P

The NEC is NFPA 70. NFPA 70E is the Electrical Safety Code.

Incorrect.  The NEC is NFPA Code 70. A Code is considered part of the NCEES test one (1) year after it has been issued.  So 2017 NFPA 70 (NEC) was valid for testing purposes in April 2018.  In October of 2017 it was the 2014  edition. Generally speaking, all NFPA codes are 2017 year at...

Shut up and mail me my participation trophy!

You need to "wine and dine" them.  Offer them the world!   Its all about how you ask, and of course the delivery.  If you come across as just an another EIT scrub off the street, your never going to get anywhere with them.    

If you ask a third time though they give you the real answer you are looking for. its all about persistence!  

of Next Year, mind you. The 2018 Solar Flares will pretty much prevent the Scranton's from being processed this year.  

Dont be silly.  We already know they regulate the cut score (ie. number of new engineer's) based on how the sun falls upon a dial at Stonehenge at a time determined by a D-20 roll.

I asked a homeless individual on the street.  In between the incoherent ramblings about the world being taken over by squirrels he indicated he was very concerned with the NCEES methodology.  I presumed he was talking about the scoring methodology.     I would never post non-researched and...

Because its the code + authors comments... As compared to just code...

Unofficial rumors are circulating that this may be the lowest passing percentage to date.  Only reason we are hearing about it is because its bringing into question the validity of the NCEES scoring Methodology which is apparently a big deal to some people.   Probably wont help you this go...

Please confirm if by "Textbook" you actually mean "Handbook". The Handbook has Author notes in blue which provides for explanatory information behind confusing or important code items. Note, the Note ARE NOT CODE.  You CANNOT refer to them, reference them, or use them for anything other then...

So us April-ineans set the test score for ya. Sucka's!!!!

An engineer will  never ever use that section.  ("Never" is a dangerous word, but I'm comfortable saying that here.) "is not sufficient to start the motor or to carry the load" The only way you jump into this section is if you designed to (A)(1) and (B)(1) and the motor still failed to run...

Lies. Civil engineer's don't even need to count past 9 to do their job.  Do they even know how to multiply?   

Just do not try a Manager or PM.  You'd need like 6 Managers or 4 PMs to get an equivalent exchange there.
