Engineering education has gotten way too generalized and not kept pace with the increasing complexities of actual engineering practice. The tests are designed to determine minimum competence, and that is pretty much what they do. I cannot tell you how many projects I have had to salvage, stop, or otherwise clean up because another PE was in over his/her head and didn't know it. That being said, there has to be some kind of system in place to determine which engineers are fit to practice in the public arena as the final engineering authority. Testing is the logical means of that selection, as with other professional fields such as medicine, law, etc.

That all being said, you passed! Celebrate!



The PE exam MUST be made more difficult.....as soon as I pass and am grandfathered in.


Besides that..congrats on the good work!

Re: I am the smartest man alive

Congrats, Kyle.

So, how many PE does it take to change a light bulb? And do they have to pass the test to be able to open the step ladder??

Big step in your career!!! Gotta have a good smoke, so find you a place where you can take your time and enjoy the cigar!!
