Interesting breakdown of PE results

[Brimstone]

I received the MS summer newsletter today and it had a breakdown for those that took the exams in the state. The numbers below are for all examinees (that includes repeat takers).

Discipline / Passed / Total / Percentage Passing

Civil / 25 / 42 / 59%

Environmental / 2 / 17 / 12%

Electrical / 4 / 5 / 80%

Mechanical 4 / 12 / 33%

The enviromental exam must have been tough. :suicide:

Environmental / 2 / 17 / 12%

Damn, remind me not to try the water in that state.

Seriously though, 2/17? That's gotta be a fluke. 17 people isn't a whole lot to base a statistic on, but the historical pass rate is around 70%.

:dunno:

Gotta wonder why the enviro exam had so many failures.... I like the Electrical rate, though.
The most surprising thing to me though is how few people total took any of the exams.... only 76 examinees in an entire state??? Wow, that just seems like a low number. I guess I could expect that from somewhere like RI or ND, but I wouldn't expect it from MS.

Well, in the 72 years that the state has been giving out PE licenses, only 17,000 licenses have been issued. That includes out-of-state commity licenses.

I can only imagine what the total number of licenses are for the larger states like CA or FL.

 

[What!!]

we at texas are more than 97611 as we speak. More to be added on monday after license waiver meeting.

My EIT number in NY (I don't know if that would have carried over to be my PE number, or was unrelated) was in the 81000 range.

My EI number (given in 2001) was 6400 and my LSI number (also issued in 2001) is less than 400.
