They told me it was really no point in getting a PE unless you are a civil engineer.




Words from someone that didn't want to or couldn't pass the test


There's no reason not to become a PE imo

If you are considering whether or not getting a PE, you should be able to pass the test fairly easily...

Engineering has a lot less to do with accolades, networking, and credentials and more to do with thinking as effective, innovative, and efficient as possible.

I don't see many engineers getting into a tiff over titles and such non sense, there are plenty of other careers for those type of people.

Even though it's not always a requirement, it definitely puts you on top of the list when looking for a job. Also gets you a pay bump at most places.

I got my job without it (just graduated), but I'll be taking the PE as soon as I can.
