    Sounds like within a week after July 4th is the safest bet. Almost there MD! You can do it!

    Whats the point of getting a PE in Electronics or Computers

    I will echo what has said here about getting a PE (in general). If you ever want to cut the corporate tie and start an engineering consulting firm (that is offer engineering services to the public) you'll need a PE. If you ever work for the Government and want to get into positions of more...

    Will I need/use the NEC handbook on the electrical/electronics test?

    I prefer the Casio FX-115 series, I used the one that had the ability to display the text as you would see it written in a text book. The advantage was I could quickly look at the screen and see if I fat fingered something. Didn't have to decipher calculator-ese.

    Control Systems vs Electrical vs Computer Science

    I'll agree that, from a legal perspective, it is going to matter what state you are licensed in as to whether or not it matters to have a control or EE license. In certain states, so long as you have appropriate knowledge/education/experience you can seal whatever work you believe you can...

    Which EE module to take?

    I took (and passed) the Computer module in April 2008 and found that there were some significant differences in the NCEES prep material and the actual test. Some made it more difficult, others made it easier. I was pleasantly surprise by the number of definition questions. But the programming...

    Just in case anyone else is wondering. In MD you will get your license (the same thing you got for the passing the FE/EIT) about a week after paying your dues online. Your fancy wall certificate will come about 3 to 4 months after that (unless you go to the MDSPE recognition even in February...

    Congrats MD pass-ers! Enjoy the moment! :multiplespotting: :party-smiley-048: For those not so lucky this go around; take a few days off, relax and hit the book next week to prepare for April. Try to find someone who passed within your discipline and get some advice on parts you feel you...

    Don't be afraid to call the board, they're some who really will tell you straight up what is going on. The PE board secretary is very (brutally) honest and if she says it will happen on day X then you can expect it to happen. Or you can do what some of my friends did and create bogus email...

    NCEES Announces Changes to the Electrial PE Exam Effective for the April 2009 exam

    To anyone who might by chance read this and take the new format exam for Computers, I'd be curious to get your feedback (especially if you are a repeat taker and can compare and contrast the two) on what exactly they go for in terms of breadth and depth of computer topics. Thanks!

    Guam Buildup

    Sadly, having been to Guam a few times and having lived in Key West; I'd much rather live in Guam the KW. It is a lot nicer and has many more amenities due to the catering to the Japanese tourist. I am guessing Guam is a bit more expensive, but KW wasn't no picnic either. The only flipside to...

    Good luck MD, based on today being a furlough day for state employees, I am guessing by end of next Tuesday you'll know and be doing the happy dance. Try to get out and do something fun this weekend.

    MARYLAND - RESULTS

    Maryland is not an ELSES state. So AFTER all the ELSES states get results, then the non-ELSES states get results in alphabetical order. Don't worry, Maryland is right on track for the past few years. Maryland typically post results online around January 3rd. As I've mentioned before, the...

    The wait is almost over MD! Probably in 8 to 11 days. Good luck!!! Hopefully, the website will be updated before snail mail. That did not happen for the April 2008 exam (the website list was updated a week after snail mail), but I think it was a fluke. The license lookup tool will not be...

    It takes about 2 weeks for all results to get mailed to state boards. MD tends to post results the 1st week of January. Word of warning, the April 2008 results were received via snail mail about 1 week before the website was updated. Not typical, but it happened. Good luck MD, just enjoy the...
