Passed my Professional Engineer Exam today!

Congrats! How did it compare to the EIT? I've always heard that the EIT was harder for some reason.

The only thing you can bring is your calculator. Gone are the days of brining your own reference material.

Congrats!

Did you have to relearn a bunch if material just for the test that doesn?t apply to your current career?

And what is the deal with no references - is there a booklet of tables and so forth like the EIT (say twenty-mumble years ago)?

[LOL] Well done!

Nice!

Congratulations. I?m just a lowly EIT. [emoji106]

Welcome to the club. Beware, one leads to another. I am currently sitting at 12 and soon headed to 14.

I am only at the EIT level (from 1998). At my current job, earning a PE would get me a gold star, but not much else.

I applaud the personal effort to earn such certification.

Most of the stuff on the exam I use just about every day. I'm always buried in NFPA 70, 70E, and 499. NCEES does give you a reference manual and applicable standards and code books that are in the exam.
