Wish me Luck. I have to take the FE (Fundamentals of Engineering Exam) tomorrow. This is a 8 hour long test and it is a pass/fail test. If I pass, I can get my EIT (Engineer in Training) License. I have to have this license and work for 4 years before I can take another test and become a Professional Engineer (PE). Without the PE license, all of my designs must be checked by a Professional engineer to be legal. I hope it makes everyone feel better knowing civil engineers must go through all of this before designing a building, road, etc.
