I know NCEES will accept it, but the state may be different. I'm dealing with this right now. I took and passed the Power PE exam in April 2018 (1st attempt - one and done baby) but now I'm going through all the licence application fuss. Here in Oregon, you take the PE exam first. You do not...

PPI Quick Reference book is pending sale.  The other 2 are still available. 

Selling some Power PE exam references. I used these to prep for, take, and PASS the April 2018 NCEES Power PE Exam, and thus I no longer need them. All three books are in mint condition, with no marks or highlighting at all. Like new, pristine condition. 1.) PPI Power Quick Reference for the...

We use lots of auto transformers at my work, but all at transmission voltage (500/230kV, 230/115kV etc..) FWIW Engineering Pro Guides technical study guide has some good study examples. 

I have a Spin Up 2nd edition, great condition, no markings I'd sell for $80 shipped. Let me know if your interested.

I took, and passed, the PE exam in April (Power, not water resource though). I started studying Jan 1st, so 3.5 months before the exam. Here was my schedule: 3 days a week I stayed late at my office (quiet and alone) after work was done for the day and stayed 3-4 hours each of those nights...

You can do it! I’m a working father as well with a 40-50 hr work week and a 2-year old daughter. Started studying in January. Stayed late at work 3 nights a week to study and all day at the Library on Saturdays. Made Sunday a family day to balance that in. Wife was supportive as ultimately me...

^^^ This. If I ever do go for a Masters degree I’d be going for an MBA. Not a masters in engineering. While I’m sure an engineering Master msnight make one a better engineer, there is little benefit in most positions salary or job wise. Now an MBA paired with an engineering bachelors and PE...

“The only questions I got wrong were the ethics ones!” lol ;)

Color me jealous! lol

Everyone I deal with uses P.E. so I tend to follow suit. Months from now when I finally get the license approved...

Hey buddy, I didn’t sign shlt, because I don’t have shlt, and I’m not trying to sell shlt. Wrong guy. I don’t have class binders or any of that. Not me. Im not trying to make profits of other people’s labor.  I’m simply trying to have a conversation while you are up on your high horse that used...

I get the deal with not distributing PDFs, but every book is copyrighted. Are you suggesting no used book can ever be resold? There are literally thousands of used books on Amazon and in “Used book stores” everywhere.  Like I said, I get the digital thing or making copies, but originals?

This ^^^ Is almost my exact spot. No raise. No bonus. (Federal employee on scheduled step increases, no performance based pay) Might get reimbursed for exam and licensing fees, but not for prep materials/books. After telling my boss that I passed, I got a hearty slap on the shoulder and a...

Link redacted. FWIW, I didn’t personally use the PDF. I used a hardback copy we have in my work library. As for the GE book, the link is direct to GEs website where they themselves have it posted as free open source. 

https://ncees.org/engineering/pe/pass-rates/ Well, only 29 people in the whole country took it! Sheesh. That exam will be on the chopping block soon, making your PE license super rare!

SHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used the Blackburn Book. and GE Art & Science of Protective Relaying book: http://www.gegridsolutions.com/multilin/notes/artsci/ Used the printer at work to print, then brought the printed pages to Office Depot and paid like $4 to have it spiral bound and covered. Those two are big...

No wasted money on expensive prep courses for me. Graffeo was my #1 best reference. #2 was Engineering Pro guides tech study guide and full exam. Those 2 sources were 10x more useful than my other dozen references by far.  Get both of them. Studied 3 months. Took 16 full 8-hr practice exams...

At a 50% I wouldn’t bother, but you’re at 69% and 70% is likely a pass. That’s 1 question. Itl cost  $300+ and another 3 months of studying to retake it. I’d gamble the $75 on finding 1 pencil/eraser smudge mismark. That’s worth the gamble to me after I dropped $1200+ already.  If you do...
