    Where to buy pre-tabbed NEC & NESC HANDBOOK, and should I?

    The exam spec does not list that NFPA 780. It may be useful to have to understand what is in the code, but it is not *needed* as a reference for the exam. I feel very confident in my answers to the exam questions on lighting protection without having this code accessible during the exam. The old...

    I believe you got all of them except one. Grounding is not required for current to flow. There are ungrounded electrical systems. Not often used, but still you will see them in the right applications. https://www.csemag.com/articles/grounded-and-ungrounded-electrical-and-power-system-design/ ...

    You started the thread. You know. Why would NCEES start an early results pilot program when they are transitioning over to CBT testing for all the P.E. exams? I’ll ask your statement back to you. Do you think NCEES would hold different standards of release of test scores when at the point they...

    Haha, all you who signed up are screwed. You didn’t read the fine print! You are going to be held to a higher standard, so you are less likely to pass. Good luck!

    I have not received it yet. I even checked all my spam folders. Is everyone supposed to get them at the same time?

    I think it would be more fair to only throw out one of the two. Having the question once wasn’t the issue. Having it twice was. Selfishly I would like them to keep both as I’m sure I got them right.

    October 2019 Post Exam Wait Period - Welcome to the Suck

    I think that is one reason why I do not feel as confident about the exam or maybe don't want to outwardly feel as confident. Yes, there were plenty of out of left field questions that I couldn't even find the terms in an index in any of the multitude of references, but I felt okay about the...

    I am not sold yet on management versus technical at this point, but either way it is an expectation. I'm going to start down the management side and see if that is indeed where I see myself fitting. Having a PE is a good way to distinguish yourself from others as not everyone can attain one...

    I'm in consulting as well. It is not "required" for advancement within most consulting firms, but strongly desired. All of our associate principles and principles at my firm, except one, have at PE license. So while not required, it is essentially necessary.  I am looking to move up into a more...

    For the duplicate question, to me it looked like one was in a final format and one was in a preliminary format. In one question, a couple words were bold, there was an additional clarifying phrase added, and the question was in a separate paragraph below the paragraph with the problem...
