NCEES is going to Pearson Vue for the Fundamentals of Engineering exam starting in January. What scares me about that is their manual will also be used (not paper, a searchable feature of the exam).
Having taken PV exams when details/plans/charts are involved, I have found it tough to maneuver.
Having said that.. I took the FE exam last month (because I need it to register my PE license in some jurisdictions).. it was the last time the paper/pencil option is available. It's a tough test and I'm not sure PV is up to the challenge.. especially with the on line handbook.
