    So I put an exhaustive response over in Electrical/Electronics (as there is precious little information specific to that test here):

    Electrical and electronics PE exam oct 2017

    I passed the Oct 2017 Electronics - my first try.  Thank you to the folks of these forums who told of their experiences, it really helped me understand what I was up against and what I had to do.   Here are my thoughts on the experience:   Whoever said the test is on the fundamentals in these...

    Why do you take PE exams?

    The PE has been in the back of my mind since undergrad, and then more so since I declined to follow the PhD track. The discipline I work in though - nearly no PEs, and folks who have no idea what a PE even means, and others who look me square in the eye and tell me it is a waste of time.  That...

    PE passers by age.

    Older than most reporting here.  Know some older than me who have passed PE and were much more up on math.  I sit next week.  Had to take the FE twice - well it was the EIT then.  First time passed in grad school without studying.  Then did nothing with it... my practice - jack of all trades...

    Camara Example 31.6, am I crazy?

    Hello, I'm looking for some verification here. In Camara on page 31-2, Section 2, First-order analysis, the guidelines for solving this kind of problem uses a Thevenin equivalent circuit to isolate the inductor or capacitor - by themselves without the resistor R2.  I get this, and I understand...

    Which books to sell and which to keep?

    I would not be so quick to get rid of your books.  My reference library helped me to maintain my USCG maritime license for a very long time.  As to the engineering books I have, well, here I am still using them.  The internet is very helpful, and it does not replace a good professional reference...

    Hello from Mass.

    I took it in NH, and it had an end date on the certificate. So my next challenge is getting PE references.  I have never worked under the supervision of a PE.  And I'm wondering where folks practicing electrical and electronics (e.g. NOT power) are working where a PE is required for that.  I do...

    Hello from Mass.

    Thanks to those who set up these boards.  They were helpful in my passing the FE.  Again.   I took the EIT back in the late 80's and it was only when the exams were recently reorganized, introducing more topics, that what I am practiced in seemed to finally qualify.  My EIT expired before I sat...
