Sigh, I don't know what the law is here in Pennsylvania, but where I come from, 
Quebec, Canada, you don't have to pass any tests. Just show your B.A.Sc. degree
and proof of having worked in the field for two years, (coop experience 
discounted by 40%) and presto, you got your P. Ing. If on the other hand you
poor bastard are coming from nowhere, like the USA, then you also have to pass
a professional ethics exam. But then, so few engineers graduate out of US
universities...
