There was a topic already created with that question, but I cannot seem to locate it...

Edit: Found it! Seems like 24 was the youngest anyone on here took the PE. NCEES says the average is about 31 - 32 to take the PE.

Average Age to take FE/PE/SE

Just saw this graphic in the NCEES 2019 squared report and I thought that it was interesting. Over the last 4-5 years people are waiting slightly longer to take the FE exam and are taking the PE exam slightly earlier than before. Any ideas on why this is? For the PE exam possibly states relaxing...

If I follow that...I was 22 for FE and 31 for PE...if I got creative on the application I probably could have taken PE at 26. I wasn't sure as I work for a GC and we don't do a whole lot of "design" in the traditional sense of the word so I waited until i could comfortable say I had the required "design" experience. However, I would like an asterisk as I was supposed to take the PE in April 2020 and would have been 30 at the time...

I was 26 when I got my mechanical PE.

 

[LyceeFruit PE]

the 1st time I took the PE, I was 26.

I passed the FE at 20 (junior year of college)

ETA: I was 30 when I passed.

 

[squaretaper LIT AF PE]

Didn't get a degree until 31, ya whippersnappers.

I was 25 when I passed the Civil PE. California requirements help, only 2 years of qualifying experience needed.

Got you beat at 24 when I first got my PE! Got the SE 2 years later at 26.

In this thread...

Youngest Person to pass the PE?

Out of curiosity, since the exam has been decoupled from qualifying experience, would anyone know of anyone who took and passed the PE when they were very young?

There a link to a reddit AMA where a 19 year old claims to be the youngest PE ever.
