I have this book. In fact, I got it a while ago way before I took the exam. It's great. It has so much information and a lot of esoteric information. It's definitely a good for backup. I would hold onto it even though you may never use it during the exam.

I took the exam twice and ended up passing the second time. I definitely had favorite subjects and ones that I absolutely lamented. My favorites were definitely 3-phase power and the associated calculations. Basically all of the heavy math stuff. I liked working numbers out and manipulating...

I'm not a big prep course person. I usually just buy books and study on my own time and read. However, I did buy Justin's EngProGuides Power Guide and sample exams. I loved them. The guide was laid out very well and concise. They were my primary notes to study from. I threw them into a giant 4"...

My last name is a "W" and I got mine last week. Perhaps they skipped over you.

The Shorebrook book is pretty good. The only gripe I had with it is that there is broken English in some parts and some questions didn't make sense such as missing information. But overall it was a decent book with pretty interesting questions. This question pertains to equal area criterion and...

Told you it would be before July 4th. They usually wait all week and flood the system on Friday.

Not you. Others have reported 18 months.

It took a while but it didn't take 18 months. More like 6 weeks.

I don't think they go in alphabetical order. My last name starts with "W" and I just got mine and they're still adding.

Yes. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to the addition of licenses and approval. They definitely just have a big pile of applications. Whomever passes the exam they just take from the pile and add them into the system. Doesn't seem by date applied, alphabetical order, etc. The wait is...

I submitted the forms around January 2018 then got a letter from them dated April 05, 2018 (go figure) saying I was approved to take the PE. So, I took the October 2018 exam but didn't pass unfortunately. I re-took it in April 2019 and passed. From the result notice to the license was about 6 weeks.

Yes. Applied in NY using the old fashioned forms and took the exam here in the NYC area. I also live and work here. You might be seeing your number next week or week after next before July 4th, hopefully. Definitely give a call after the 8 week mark if you get nothing.

They just added a whole bunch of licenses and I finally got my number.

Well, congratulations. Now there's the rest of us. I'll definitely wait the full 8 weeks before contacting them.

The whole thing doesn't make any sense. If you took and passed the PE in NYS and they approved your application initially then I don't see an issue. Just have to play the waiting game. It seems more risky if you apply to NYS by comity. Longer wait and potential denial. Why would you be...

You're out-of-state? They've only added 3 out-of-state today.

I'll believe it when I see it. Let us know how it goes.

Incorrect. They've issued licenses from April 2019. I took the exam with someone I knew from school and he showed up in the recent additions. So, I do not understand the hold up at all. Also, to only add one license per day after a week of inactivity is appalling.

Just in time for my birthday! 😀 I can't believe it's been 6 weeks already. Another two more weeks it is then. Well, maybe longer since the 8 week mark is 4th of July weekend. Like I said, most likely mid-July.

*melodramatic tone* The going rate seems to be 1 for 1. The rate may change tomorrow but that's what it is today... One day, one license.
