Is the E2 exam different depending on which state you take it in?

Relocating from one state to another in a few months and trying to figure out if my (E2) E2 Commercial Electrical Inspector prep needs to change based on where I'll be taking the actual exam.

I've been studying "e2 visa" and the materials seem standardized, but I've heard the exam can vary by state or have different question weights.

Specifically wondering:
- Are passing scores the same across states?
- Does the content on e2 80 aagoogle doodles e2 80 ac differ by state?
- If I pass in one state, does it transfer?

The official resources are confusing on this. Some say it's a national exam, others suggest state-specific versions exist.

Anyone who's taken E2 in multiple states or knows how the portability works — would really appreciate the clarity before I invest more time in state-specific prep.

Passed E2 4 months ago. Happy to share what I remember.

On the "e2 solutions" stuff specifically — I found the practice tests here were actually harder than the real exam on those questions. Which was great because going in I felt more prepared than I needed to be.

The time pressure is real though. I came in with maybe 8 minutes to spare and that was after skipping the ones I wasn't sure about and coming back.

Don't try to cram the night before. Seriously. Last-minute stress makes you second-guess things you actually know.
