Hey, Does any one have promo code for the practice exam?

Hi Guys, I am taking the industrial FE exam in February for the first time and wondering if anyone with experience has any tips for me? It would be greatly appreciated as I don't see as much info for IE!

Nevada board allows you to sit-in FE civil at NCEES and must pass in order to evaluate. I was wondering if someone got an EIT in nevada board even you have graduated from non-abet school. How did you do?

Hi, so the title here pretty much explains everything. I’m not doing so hot on this section. What can I study or review to get better at it? Should I just read the FE handbook Model Rules more? I find it hard to “study” this topic.

I have read previous threads that say either use the TI-36X Pro or Casio FX-991. Both can do the exact same thing, right? Just a matter of knowing where button are?

I am studying and have plan to take OD. I scores 85% on NCEES practice problem and EITFastTrack over 330 problems. Is it possible/enough to pass the test? or is there any other recomended study material? what about PrepFE?

Hi! I'm a Filipino chemical engineer who graduated here in the PH and is currently a licensed chemical engineer here as well. I have been working in IT ever since so no engineering work experience yet but I wanna start a chemE career in the US soon.

I also hold dual US-PH citizenship.

My questions are the following:

1. Will taking the FE exam and subsequently the PE exam (and any other relevant exams/certifications) boost my chances of employment in the US?

2. What's the process for someone like me to take the FE exam?

3. Is there an official website where I can see more details about the FE exam? Maybe even an official contact page or email address?

Thanks!

Can someone send me the link to a discord study group? I'm taking the FE mechanical in May

I have my bachelors and masters both from Rajasthan University in india and want to appear for FE anybody had same issue? how did u managed?

#NewportNews, VA. If anyone is interested in partnering up to study let me know. I graduated 5 years ago and you can imagine how hard it is to discipline myself again to study.

I feel like the Construction Engineering section is much broader than I expected. While I assumed it would focus mainly on scheduling and earned value analysis, I keep running into topics I’ve never heard of, like procurement, delivery methods, and construction operations.

For those who have taken the exam, how did you approach studying for this section? What were the most heavily tested topics, and did you use any specific resources that helped? Also, did you find that any topics felt unnecessary to study?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hey everyone,

I'm studying for the FE Mechanical exam. I've been out of university for 11 years, and I've read some great and inspiring stories from people who passed.

I started following this schedule, but even after repeating the questions from the Lindeburg book on the review date, they still feel brutally difficult, I'm not sure it's for me.

I'm not sure what approach to take—should I keep redoing the exercises repetitively or move on to another topic?

Also, what do you recommend: studying chapter by chapter in order, or alternating between subjects?

Thanks!

I am taking the environmental FE in a couple of months and I am in the process of studying. Is there a ctrl F or a search function for the handbook when I am taking the exam? I would like to practice the same way that I will be taking the exam but I haven’t found any info about this on the FE website.

Trying to decide if PrepFe one month access is worth getting. I am taking my FE in next month after being out of school 11 years. Followed PPi book (including practice problems and test) and Islam practice problems and NCEE practice test. Trying to find some more practice problems and didn’t know how well PrepFE’s problems compare to the actual test problems.

Thanks everyone! Coop

Hey everyone, I’m confused on how close I was to passing. Thanks for the help!

Can anyone give me insights about how I can learn to draw SFD BMD of beams?

Hello , I am about to give my FE chemical exam shortly , Ive seen some free stuff that is being passed for other disciplines ( FE Civil has a google drive that has Practice tests , Lindeburg and The NCEEES sanple test )

I was wondering if someone is willing to share

Thanks in advance

I ran out of time at the last two sections. Can you tell me how close I am to passing

Are differential equations on the civil FE exam?

Hey everyone,

Got my exam results back today and turns out I passed first try. I’m about 7 months post grad now and I had probably 1-2 hard days of studying. I’m not saying this to brag ( I really thought I failed) but more so to encourage anyone who feels like they’re ill prepared.

My biggest piece of advice would be to emphasize test taking strategies and concepts while prepping. A lot of time can be saved on questions by quickly eliminating dummy and answers, and performing sanity checks prior to fully working out problems. I’d be happy to answer any more questions for anyone preparing to take the exam.

I took the exam on the 28th, and I’m not anticipating a passing grade since it’s my first time taking the FE mechanical, but I was wondering what happens after your pass.

I’m in MA and I see that you need to apply for the EIT through PCS and there’s a cost associated with that but it doesn’t specify how much. Additionally does the EIT ever expire?

1st attempt. Was I close?

As the title says I was able to pass my FE and wanted to give some useful tips that helped me.

1. Get to know the handbook

I spent about 3 weeks studying and preparing for the exam, and after every study session I would spend time looking through this book to get familiar with it.

2. Mark Mattson on YouTube

He has an extensive YouTube series that helped me tremendously. Each video covers a subject that also come with practice problems you can do along side him. I found the questions to be similar to those I took on the exam

3. Practice exam

I bought the NCEES practice exam and used it to not only practice questions, but to also get my time management down.

Best of luck to all!

This sub has been incredibly helpful during this journey. Now that I passed, I will be happy to help anyone who has questions about overall preparation and the exam itself.

Best of luck to all future test takers. You got this.

Greetings!

Ok, so I know this formulas, conception, and understand very well but in PrepFE I faced a question that really confused me with solution.

The confusion part is two-tailed which is divide by. We got Interval Confidence 99%. Hence, 0.01/2 = 0.005

but in solution it only mentioned 0.01 without dividing. I asked ChatGPT and insist should be two tailed as 0.005 not 0.01 so it gives us 4.604 NOT 3.474 (I know ChatGPT make mistake sometimes)

However, my question is straightforward;

When will we use two-tailed (dividing by 2 of given interval confidence %)? And when not?

Please only answer this question, I am really confused and appreciate your help.

Question

Solution

0.01= 3.747 or 0.005 = 4.604?
