I talked to NCEES rep this morning . They said exam results have been released to the state boards but it is up to the state boards to release to us . They would not tell me if I passed exam . Now what CA is doing with this and why they are sitting on it, is anybody's guess . At this point with...

Please post here for PE Electrical study materials . Here is list of what I used (all books from amazon.com) : Electrical Engineer's Guide to Passing PE (Graffeo) Complex Imaginary Volume 1-4 NCEES Practice Exam Electrical Machines and Drives by Wildi (read some chapters; not whole book)...

Yes , I already knew that ....

Yes, this is true for new applicants . There were some posts here about applications asked for finger prints at time of application . My guess is that this applied to     refile applicants. I am sure though that this will be the norm from now on for new applicants for CA PE . It's just that this...

Motoracer, may not be a good sign . Usually finger prints and background check required when you get the position. Two questions -- did you already submit finger prints with your application and did you receive any email from BPELS like below on November 16th ? Please check email for this date .

They did not require finger printing for April 2015 exam . As I said before, this will delay the process for getting license for many. Will probably hold up the NCEES results for rest of us . All you **** heads holding it up, please go get finger printed .

Whoever posted this, please check again your email about finger printing . It should come from CA BPELS . Please post if you have it . If you do not, there is a good possibility you may not have passed . I do not know this for sure though . Anyone else not get e-mail for finger printing ?

Olden Engineer, You have to go to BPELS website where there is announcement of finger printing requirement. In there, if you click one of the links, will take you to a webpage where you have to download the finger print paper/document. Take this to a UPS store or look up on website which centers...

The problem started as CA was late to jump in on the finger printing issue (notice sent out after applications submitted) . As a result, I have a feeling lot of people have not done finger printing . If they made this a requirement in application, everyone would have done it (or else they would...

They will need to update the database. If your finger print did not pass, you may have passed NCEES exam but will not get assigned a number in the database. I doubt if your NCEES exam will show pass ... maybe it will but you will definitely not be in BPELS database. I hope you completed the...

How do you pass the PMP audit ? Any thing to watch out for ?

I don't think so . I called them and they sounded pessimistic. "Hopefully before Christmas" is what they said . Go figure. I am thinking sometime late next week or just before Christmas.

Ken PE and NJ Mike PE stop spreading rumors . You guys are CONs .

I am not Civil but electrical . I think trying EET is better . I heard lot of people on this forum pass with it --- so it must be good . Also you get more number of hours with it and more practice. And I would ask School of PE to refund your money -- first thing .

What books did you refer to for the electrical power PE exam and did not manage to pass ? I should have read Wildi's book with more time for sure.

Yes, this is what happens when PE is run by state/gov agency . USPS anyone ?

No rumor but true story . NCEES specifications are changed after consultation with test takers who do very well on PE exam . They are asked their opinion on which areas they use in their job . Did anyone get this questionnaire sent ?

I hope Cali results come out next week but based on the bloated state agency, I would not count on it . Also CA is one of the few states requiring finger printing which has delayed the whole process . I wonder why we need to get finger printed after PE exam.... I thought finger printing was...

Ok , I looked at the BBB accreditation of NCEES and found complaints . One of them was dismissal for using wrong calculator model . Another one was about name on NCEES form not matching government ID . NCEES did not refund any of them and they have to retake exam . The moral of the story ---...

Hello,   Does anyone know if they release all licenses at one go (like in a batch) or do they have to manually do this one by one ? I saw California PE license lookup website down on Saturday -- I checked but my name does not appear in license number . So, do they enter all license numbers at...
