    Job/Salary Market with experience

    I'm confused. Which one are you asking?  Salary right out of college, or salary after 5 years experience? They are very different things! Like for example, where I work (Fed Gov) you'd be looking at $45-55k right out of school and $80-90k after 5 years.

    The wait is killing me

    Well, for one they changed the exam this time. More protection content for example. This means some of those questions were test run on us. They need to review those and look at rBis etc  to see what to adjust. The new changes to the specs will be board evaluated by sampling our answers.  Since...

    Watches?

    Now that's pretty clever right there! That's some engineer thinking. They should have past you just based on that. :D

    Ncees Pencil April 2018

    Never understood the obsession with these $0.25 Chinese plastic pencils. There were a ton just left sitting on the tables around me when I left. I shoulda grabbed them all and sold a dozen at $100/ea to recoupe some of my textbook money! haha :laugh:

    Spring '18 Exam Result Day...

    My guess is for May 24th, 2018. Do they release all PE results on the same day, or randomly, like civil one day, power a few days later, etc...?

    The wait is killing me

    I’m sure it will be at least a full month from now, if not more, so I don’t feel the need to drive myself insane checking Ncees. I figure it’ll get posted here anyway when they start getting released. Besides, I’m pretty sure I got an  email when my FE results got posted. I do wonder if...

    If you fail the PE power, buy these books

    Lol... This thread (outside of the for sale area and in the power section) where we are all biting on our teeth in stress and anticipation for our results, is like a guy standing outside the front door of a community center Narcotics Anonymous meeting, with a trench coat full of drugs, calling...

    Watches?

    Same in Salem, OR. If you didn't have a watch you were basically in the dark until the 15 min warning. Or annoying the heck out of the Proctors.

    FWIW: Those stats are for the SE exam, not the PE exam. And I doubt it

    How to send technical feedback to NCEES (faulty questions, etc)

    There’s a link on the NCEES homepage one one of the 3-4 screens that cycle at the top.

    Good Luck on your exams

    That sucks. We were allowed as many references on our table as we wanted in Salem, OR.  As as for the earlier comment about noise canceling headphones/earbuds. No go on any electronic earbuds. Just foam or rubber type ear plugs are allowed. No music playing type.

    April 2018 Power PE Difficultly Level

    Meh. I got the survey today too. We ALL did. It’s Automated. I wouldn’t stress about it. But I could see it being a fun way to taunt the new guys every test cycle.
