Agreed. I think we had a pretty active group for April 18'. Looking forward to the weekly problems :)

They don't send a physical license.. I thought they did. It is downloaded. I printed it, put a mat behind it and framed it. 

My license number was posted yesterday! For reference, I mailed my application around June 7th. So it took about 6 weeks.  Now to get the physical license and frame it with this damn pencil.

Lol I actually did better in thermo and heat transfer than statics and dynamics in school. Using machine design stuff at work over the last 6 years helped keep the basics relatively fresh in my head and made studying easier. On another note, finally got my license number today :) great start...

Bumping this.. Almost a  month since i sent in my application.  Anyone know how long it takes?

Excellent post. Pretty much everything you need right here. My approach was very similar (minus Dr. Tom)

Finally sent my PE application in to the state. Anyone have any idea how long it takes (Illinois)?

My thoughts exactly. lol. To each their own..

Is anyone else excited for practice problems of the week to start again? lol 😁

i don't have specifics but there was one problem in the April 18' exam that was pretty much just a series of unit conversions. I also used it on many other problems. For 20 bucks or whatever it costs, i think it's well worth it.

Assume?! Pshh i know i did. PROVE ME WRONG BRO!

Hopefully it works out in your favor. Makes you wonder how many of us that received passing results actually failed but were passed because of an error. hmm..

I took MDM this past April and passed. My most useful references during studying were.... 1. MERM 2. EngProGuides study book 3. Shigleys 4. Tim Kennedy review book 5. DTC youtube videos 6. Lindberg unit conversion book 7. NCEES practice exam 8. EngProGuides practice exam 9. Scott Hart...

Jeez you guys are still waiting?!?! sry :/

I don't expect anything. A PE license isn't required or common for the field I am in (machine design). I took the PE as a personal challenge and to potentially open up future opportunities. Bossman might throw a little cash at me though.

In Illinois you must have 4 years experience working under a licensed PE. The PE will fill out a VE-PNG form and sign and seal it in an envelope then return it to the applicant to include with his/her application. I just had this conversation with my boss who will help me with my VE-PNG form. He...

That is very unfortunate. I hope there might be another way to communicate the importance of having her recommendation. Don't let it get you down. Easy or hard, passing this exam is still an accomplishment and you should feel proud. I know I do. This is not what I wanted to read as I am about...

Must be a record for Illinois. only one day after the first state went out! congrats all.

I did! thanks.

Not up on NCEES yet but CTS shows a pass for me. Thanks for all the help fellow MDM'ers
