    Has anyone taken the CBT version of the FE?

    Thank you for your good wishes. The more complex problems are in the second section or I would say questions from 51 to 110 (The Civil Part). They divide the exam in two sections, this was the 50th question for me, it could be different in the other disciplines more or less. The break is not...

    Has anyone taken the CBT version of the FE?

    Mike, I am also taking the FE Civil next week. There is not many civil study guides out there unfortunately, purchased Lindeburg's civil book (3rd ed), it is ok but I don't think it is enough to pass the exam if you have forgotten about the topics. Anybody knows a better one please share :)
