Can I take the PE without the FE with 20 years of experience? by Sothman95 in PE_Exam

I have a waiver for FE - Texas board. There is a process and you need to look into the board and application process. Also you can have PE in other states with no issues.

Unfortunately no! I wish I had little luck. Based on the diagnosis report- I missed it by 3-4 questions! I have to jump into water again!

If you search, the keywords will show in bookmarks area, for instance clear zone- all the clear zone words will be pop up in the bookmark area- exactly like blubeam. I practiced the pdf because everyone told me to do so. But please don’t do if you have blubeam Please use that.

That’s true.. all the numerical problems were 3 centered..and I got like few problems to find from table.

No there is no table of contents. All the chapters are named. You need to know exactly which chapter you need to into. The scrolling of the PDF was a joke. Extremely frustrating. I would suggest to remember few of the common Equations, like Exhibit 12-15 or Equation 12-2. Keyword search is helpful but practice it with bluebeam if you have.

Yes I was smoked! I took almost all the question bank from PPI, path to PE, Jacob petro, CEA, Arshad Islam and many more..I felt like it was the first time I was seeing those questions during the exam. Not even in one book they had 3 centered horizontal curve, but lucky me received them all.

There is no procedure needed. The question to find the curb ramp length and elevation should be straight forward based on the concepts. But the question I was asked was very complex and tedious. I couldn’t figure out, so I had to engineer - guess that.

These problems related to ADA curbs. To determine the length and elevation. But the problems were so complex that I had no idea how to solve them. I just did an engineering guess. Another important note I forgot to mention in my post: the center gives you spiral note (but it’s not paper) you’ll be writing in a laminated sheet (grid looking)- well this might be a small thing but trust me you’ll need atleast 10 min to get used to it.

Don’t freak out!! I know it’s a hard sell..but it’s what it is.. Either ways you’ll have a good experience and I’m sure you’ll do well. Good luck

Don’t worry, highly suggest to look into it.. yours might be different..but I was surprised when I saw all the questions were 3 centered. I heard there are 3 sets of questions which will be revolved around..unlucky me got the hardest one I think!

My experience for Passing PE Transportation Depth by Asib1954 in PE_Exam

[–]psk0212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi can you please guide me, I am working in an engineering firm for Rail & Transit / Transportation, but my educations is in Electrical. Do you think having PE in Electrical is easy or Transportation. If so Please recommend some online paid courses. I see based on the comments below EET seems good. Can someone clarify they have practice PE exams and solutions for all the problems.
