An engineer having an engineer's license with three years of actual boiler operating experience, verified by one or more affidavits, would be allowed to take an exam for:

  1. first class engineer

  2. second class engineer

  3. chief engineer

  4. special engineers license

The correct answer is: first class engineer

To qualify for the exam for a first-class engineer, candidates must meet specific experience requirements. In this case, having an engineer's license alongside three years of verified boiler operating experience fulfills the prerequisite criteria set by licensing authorities. The first-class engineer license typically requires both formal education and practical experience in boiler operation, which this candidate possesses. The necessity for the experience to be documented by affidavits adds further credibility, ensuring that the candidate has hands-on knowledge of boiler systems in real operating conditions. Other licenses, such as the second-class engineer or special engineer's license, may have different requirements or lower thresholds for experience and education. Consequently, this individual's qualifications align exclusively with the criteria for the first-class engineer exam.
