Fed EE - I graduated long ago and just got around to taking the EIT (now FE) in April 2011, now going for the PE this month. I was also quite intimidated about all I'd forgotten when I started this journey. However, I have been pleasantly surprised by how much has come back as I have studied...

I'm taking the Electrical-Computer test Oct 2011 and thought I would post my study info before the test as I probably won't be in the mood to worry about it after! I have found this site so very helpful - there is really not much out there regarding the test other than the tips from this board...

PB bath?

Answering my own question... received notification of passing FE on 5/16 turned in PE app 6/1 deadline received the go ahead for the PE on 6/29 ...time to study... :reading:

modest small turkey on a small roll with modest amount of leftover cole slaw from the fridge... Then a Venti Coconut Mocha from Starbucks just 'cause I had a coupon. :huh:

I did receive a certificate from the Missouri Board. It is a "Certificate of Enrollment" as an engineer intern. It has my name, has a number assigned, and the state seal. :rolleyes:

The form, section V, states: LIST BELOW THE FIVE PERSONS FROM WHOM YOU ARE SUBMITTING THE THREE PROFESSIONAL REFERENCE LETTERS AND THE TWO PERSONAL CHARACTER REFERENCE LETTERS. THE THREE PROFESSIONAL REFERENCE LETTERS MUST BE COMPLETED BY LICENSED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS (DO NOT NAME YOUR...

You need 3 references that have a PE and 2 character references that are not required to have a PE. Each must give you his/her completed form in a sealed envelope with his/her name signed across the envelope seal. These five references can NOT be any of the supervisory references you used to...

When did you turn in your application? I turned mine in right at the June 1 deadline and am wondering how long it takes before you get a yes or no from the MO board on whether you can take the PE.

Oh, and another good reason to get the FE/PE for your future: If you want to start a consulting business in engineering, at least in my state, the "managing agent" (i.e. the boss) must be a PE.

Also, it's a good idea to take the FE asap even if you don't think you will "need" it. You never know what the future holds. As EE/software I have never needed a PE nor did I think I ever would. Now, many years later I am working for a consultant in environmental engineering and all of my...

I agree as well; Additionally, get to know your calculator to the same extent. Read the manual and use the special features during your study so they are second nature. The Casio calculator can do the following (and more) and I used all these features. This saved time and improved accuracy...

I just passed the exam taking the Other Disciplines and using the Lindeburg book. I graduated long ago so I felt like I was starting from scratch. My strategy was: Spend the most time on your strengths - in my opinion this is the stuff you will do well on under pressure and the areas you are...

I am filling out the forms for Missouri to take the PE in October. I had to sign an affidavit saying I had read the regs, so I read the regs! -_- It states in there somewhere that you need a 70% to pass the PE in Missouri. I don't think they give the results to you if you pass though...do...

I couldn't find it in the reference book either. So...I guess you could memorize it. I'm not so good at memorizing formulas, so whenever I encountered practice problems with continuous compounding, I set the equation to daily compounding for whatever the period was. This will approximate...

MISSOURI is in too! yay I passed :bananapowerslide:

I also took the "Other". This was my first time taking it, but I am an EE and 32 years out of school! I was easily the oldest :oldtimer: one there. My study strategy was to focus on the things I once knew and could best "relearn" (math, probability, circuits, physics, chemistry), to at...

I received the books I bought today - very promptly and in like new condition as promised - thank you!! :D

I am interested in all but the NCEES Computer Sample Questions and Solutions (NCPEEC) as I ordered it already (doh!). I will PM you...
