If the answer is derived easily and matches a booklet answer, check your work.

Sorry to hear that Jerimy. I am also Civil Engineer and i failed, my score was 60%, after reading few topics i think we are close, it seems if we can get 5+ more questions right we would be fine, but we do need to get over the hump. My issue was that i had 15 problems left and only 5 minutes to finish the test, so i had 15 B's, since i didnt have time to work these problems that i skipped in the first place. Dont give up, i am studying again and hopefully the studying will be reworded in May. What material did you use to study. I was asking about " FE Civil Practice Problems by Lindeburg " is this the book you were referring to earlier, or just regular Lindeburg book?

How do you think this material had helped you, how did you do on the topics that are covered by Georgia Tech Free Review. I used some of the material that is on youtube but its not as up to date as the material you have shared with me.

I see you did poorly in the math section.
Here are two sources that really helped me when I was studying for the FE exam:
http://ppi2pass.com/calculus-refresher-for-the-fe-exam-calfe.html
and https://www.khanacademy.org/
Khan Academy might also help with statics and dynamics.

Looking at that diagnostic, I'm fairly certain you have no idea what you should be studying. A review course will help you focus on the topics you need to concentrate on, and not waster time on areas that don't have a high probability of appearing on the exam.
If you're studying the Lindeburgh book you'd not focused in on the real exam-style questions. The 1001 FE Problems book is a good one, as is the Non-Quantitative Problems book. But really dude, a review course will help you a lot.

Do they still do the tricky unit confusion ********?
I would defin do a test prep class.
Only strategy i can think of is to look at the ones that you did best on that were left of the"mark".
Whats odd is you did better in harder subjects and worse on easier ones like statics...
I would recommend hitting the am section very hard and not so much the afternoon. Most test prep people teach the strategy (on the PE) to nail the am and then go for half the PM section and you will pass...
Keep on keeping on!

School of PE is really the best option for this.
Don't waste your money on those individual subject classes. Calculus?? You have about a 90% chance that the 1-2 calc problems you see are table lookups, again, see my point about you not knowing what to study.
EET is excellent for the PE, they just started an FE Review not too long ago. If that is half as good as their PE review you'll be good.
