I went after mine almost 20 years after school. I am an EE and work in the construction field. We have a client that we did design build stuff with and the PE stamp was going to be needed for some of our projects. We also had a project with the state and everyone had some sort of initials after their name. Having the PE gave me and my company instant credibility. The main thing is take the test as soon as you can. Can you honestly tell me that you still remember valance shells from chemistry? ;>). It is a hell of a lot harder 20 years later. I still couldn't figure it out. Good luck Eric Take the FE and PE if you are still a young guy. I went after mine almost 20 years after school. I am an EE and work in the construction field.
