After a month of anxious waiting I found out that I passed! Nothing in my life has changed, I got a pat on the back from my employer. If only this would help me get laid more..

Welcome to the club!

My (at the time) employer gave me a card when I got mine. But I'm pretty sure it helped me get my current job.

The guy next to me (Civil PE test taker) said he was going to go bear hunting that weekend. It took me a second to absorb that since I have never heard anyone say that..

^^which exam did you take?

^some folks had huge suitcases of stuff. i had a little tote bag like they give out at conventions for gathering free shit. you don't really need many references for the ME thermal and fluids exam.

I did ME HVAC and Refrigeration. I was one of those people who had a large check in size suitcase full of books. I had to bring in ASHRAE references along with MERM and come code books.

The guy on my left (another Civil guy) brought in a TI 83 calculator. He had no idea there was a list of approved calculators, I couldn't risk giving him my extra calculator, luckily the guy on my right had 2 extra calculators. Its amazing how clueless some people are for such a big test.

How did they let you get a job if you didn't pass PE? That's like high school level. Did you not dress out?

No raise associated with it. May help for future promotions, though.

Anybody have a PE study course they’d highly recommend? Preferably online, but I’d look at other options.

I did all self study. Several colleagues have recommended School of PE. I watched their sample lessons and they moved way too slow. I decided I would rather speed through the stuff I know and spend more time on the stuff I don't know instead of spending equal time on everything. Worked for me.

^^ Highly recommend School of PE. The live streaming lessons are engaging and interactive. I followed their advice to the t and passed.

I did self study using the PPI study books and practice exams (https://ppi2pass.com/). But I also had some old VHS tapes from a coworker of a Clemson professor working through problems that helped a lot too.

I just studied the "Civil Engineering Reference Manual for the PE Exam" by Michael Lindenburg. It's a huge book that has everything in it. I'd recommened it. I think I only brought it and one or two other specialized books in to take the test.

The Lindenburgh Reference Manual is huge and it will take you forever to learn everything in it. I made the mistake of wasting 3 months trying to master it. You need to learn only certain sections of it and that is where the School of PE was helpful for me.

Well, you got your PHD so you should be good. I'd lead with that instead of EIT.

Civil - water resources


Leaning strongly toward School of PE after looking around some and getting recommendations. I like the self-paced/self-study idea, I was actually surprised out how many people recommended that route, but I also think having everything organized in a class that I can self pace in might be best middle ground for me (I’m gonna need assignments to crack the whip and get me studying.)
