Taking the Professional Engineer (PE) Exam
Taking the Professional Engineer (PE) Exam
(OP)
Does anybody know if you can take the PE exam with 8 years or more of engineering experience? I got my BS of mech. Engineering from an ABET credited university and I never did take my EIT in my younger years.

Keep a very good log of the work you do which deals with major codes like API, ASME, PIP, etc. This will be VERY help on your applications. Note the duration of the project, relevant standards, and your contributions.
Make ever effort possible to work with other P.E.'s so you can have them as references for your applications. They are required for an NCEES record.
Best of luck to you.

1. 4 years of experience obtained after graduation with an ABET-accredited engineering degree
2. Passing the FE/EIT exam
I have heard of instances in my state in which people who satisfied the educational and experience requirements took the FE/EIT exam *and* the PE exam back-to-back on a weekend. Should you fail the FE/EIT exam and pass the PE exam, you would have to do it all over again - regardless of the fact that you passed the PE exam. I would not recommend this approach if it applies to you.

I have definitely seen a very experienced SE/PE in NYS get their reciprocity denied for no understandable reason from a southern state. I joke, it must be someone still fighting the civil war...
