Can anyone elaborate on the Texas 70% passing score? I read somewhere that the Texas Board of Engineers requires a minimum grade of 70% to acquire the PE license. Found a link to a pretty formal board document confirming that very verbiage and further, that 70% is required for each the morning and afternoon session, not an average of 70% between them (ex. 60% morning + 80% afternoon = fail + pass = total fail). Would this 70% be the unweighted raw score? Or would it be the weighted score?
Also, the minimum requirements for licensure in Texas must be met if applying for interchangeability of your current PE into Texas. To me, this means you would essentially need a 70% (raw or weighted) to transfer your license into Texas. If so, wouldn't that just about require a 70% be the standard cut score?
Not sure what post-test phase I'm in, but the release date can't come soon enough...
