Yes.

Is 70% the bar?

Is 70% the bar?

I think so. However since there is a curve (problems are thrown out), 70% could be 50 questions correct one year, but 58 questions correct another year.

I see, thanks for the info.  BTW, if anyone can direct me to study info related to reliability,demand calculaations, or energy management, I would appreciate it.

If you didn't pass don't be discouraged.  I'm proof that it can happen after multiple tries.  I didn't take the FE until I was 8 years removed from college.  passed and took the PE the next cycle and failed.  Took it again the next cycle and failed again.  Got gun shy for 17 years.  Finally decided to take it again in April 2014.  Isolated myself for 5 months and finally passed.  The big difference that time was the EB, internet and YouTube.  It can be done.

For anyone that was not successful this time around, I want you to know that  Electrical PE Review (EPR)  is still letting users sign up for the free version of the course,  a feature that will probably be closed off in the future. 

The free course is a condensed version of the premium course and consists of chapter lessons, HD videos, practice problems, and quizzes with full-length solutions taken straight from the paid version of the premiums course for the electrical pe exam.

I took the free trial and signed up for a month.  I really like their site and teaching styles.  The examples seem to be much closer to exam style and "tricky" than most others I've reviewed.

PE Power Exam Recap - October 2017

Wish I had found this forum when I was studying! But this topic is relevant to me - I also wrote a follow up wall-of-text after my exam (Oct 2017) to document my experience. I stayed away from talking about the exam content specifically, and the majority of my writing is about my prep (which was before I knew anything about the exam!). It is a 'study method' or 'approach' more than a 'recap', but it addresses everything I wish I could have read before I started studying! Located here.
