NJ or NY Exams

I was under the impression that an individual can take exams once the experience for that category has been completed. But my colleague says that in NJ you have to complete your experience in all 6 settings before you are able to take any exam.

 

I have completed my experience for programming and analysis and construction and evaluation. I am eager to start taking exams, but I don't know if I can in NJ. I only need about 1200 more hours to complete it all. Is it worth it to start taking exams in NY? Are there any disadvantages to this approach? Any input is welcomed and appreciated!

  I would reference the licensing requirements tool and compare/contrast requirements for both states to see their thresholds for experience, testing, etc.

  I know this is a few months old, but your AXP site will let you know when you're eligible.  I'm testing in NY, and I had to wait until all of my hours were logged.

  No worries, still in same place I was a few months ago. When I am logged into my NCARB account and go to exams I still have to click the request eligibility button.

  But since I still have 4 categories left I never hit request eligibility. I was worried it will be denied.
