I didn't end up getting it bc the reviews for it were so bad. Some people said they found it useful tho. For me, it would be too frustrating working thru problems that were filled with errors and incorrect solutions.

MD 6 min solutions sucks. The problems are exponentially harder than the real thing. The best MD problems I think were in the practice exams.

Good to know. I'll concentrate on the NCEES exams. Although I did buy the 6MS for T/F and HVAC to brush up on some more breadth type problems.

I disagree, I thought that 6MS was representative, NCEES practice was slightly easier and Lindeburger was a flippin joke.

I couldn't imagine doing all that studying and expense to not buy one more book. Devour all the info you can afford/get your hands on. however, after I passed, I got to expense everything. If you dont get to expense, I am pretty sure you can at least write it off on your taxes.

I thought the MD 6MS was great practice even though the problems were harder and it had all kinds of errors in the solutions. I can say taking that gave me more confidence than any of the other practice exams I took.

I borrowed these books from a friend and studied them. I think they were way better than the problems in the practice problem books. The problems were more representitive of what is on the test.
