@I.ELKADY Any update?

To anyone whose application was denied after they reviewed your supplemental experience record: what was the reapplication process?  Were you required to gain a set amount of time (e.g. min 1 year) of additional experience before reapplying?  On a similar token, my neighbor failed the test 4...

Just called and the guy said I can include experience outside my discipline, but obviously to focus on experience in the discipline for the license I'm trying to obtain.  Of course, the guy answering the phone isn't the same person(s) who reviews the SER.

@TWJ PE @Limamike  Mine was Dr Nieves, as well.  Have mixed opinions about his teaching style... That's why I spent so much time, with the video paused, to research topics myself which I didn't feel he covered well, or in which he made mistakes.  All in all, the course notes and practice...

I took/passed the exam in October, but opted to use the de-linked process (TX) by taking the test first, then worrying about the application later (now).  I've been with the same employer since I started in 2010, but one of my positions wasn't directly related to my engineering discipline (I was...

@I.ELKADY I've followed the same process as you (test first, application after).  I'm sitting here trying to start on my SER (I'm also in TX), and the task ahead is mentally paralyzing me.  I guess I'm concerned that they'll reject my experience and I will have overcome the feat of the PE exam...

School of PE Electrical Power Pass

Oddly enough, they seem happy to let me schedule for the FE exam again... No thanks.

Yeah, just tried it and all the PE exams say "Exam of this type has already been passed."  I passed the OCT-2016 exam.

You took SOPE.  I did also, and managed to do far more than scrape by.  Their notes needed a lot of highlighting in order to easily recognize headings, valuable information, formulas, etc.  Also, create an index containing every heading/subheading so you can easily navigate the notes.  I spent...

93 here.  Thrilled!

Same here on both points.  They said over 1500 people were taking the test this time.  Compare that against the 621, or so, who took the test in April.  Would assume/hope that people 1-3 years out of school would do worse than those with more experience, improving the curve.  I'm at ~6.5 years...

@matt267 PE did you get any kind of result other than "pass", or are you referring to other people's fail diagnostics to determine that number?

The test was pretty damn hard.  In light of that, wouldn't the cut score seemingly be constant, since presumably fewer people would hit it by virtue of having harder questions?  Or is it believed to typically be 60+, so 59 is actually lower than normal?

Was there a session where EB figured out the cut score was 48?

If we felt there was an error to one of the questions, can we submit a request to NCEES to review that question/answers?

ah I fell for it :(

Did you receive an email from NCEES?  I never received anything.  I'm using the online chat right now with someone at NCEES and they confirmed we need to bring a mechanical pencil.  Why wouldn't they email everyone?

Is this on a state by state basis?

Anyone receive any notice from NCEES about this?  I haven't.
