NCEES website has topics covered notes, and there is quite a bit of test prep and information available for purchase.

To answer your question, no the list above does not look complete.

The simplest answer is to note the SE exam explicitly includes seismic design category D & worse. PE structural will be much less in-depth on that particular topic.

Disclaimer: I'm a licensed PE. I looked into taking the SE, bought the study material, started studying, then had 3 kids in quick succession (bye bye free time). I never plan on getting around to taking the exam.

I practiced the SE exam topics and drilled them into my head, and then took the PE exam. Maybe I'm weird like that, but it worked. I was definitely over prepared, but that's not a bad thing.
