Pass the FE second time?

[denise83]

Has any one failed the FE the first time and passed it the second time?

I passed on my second attempt. In hindsight, I wasn't really prepared for the first exam. After I failed I concentrated on taking as many practice exams as I could and then working through the problems I got wrong. This seemed to do the trick as I passed on the second attempt.

That would be me... too. The first time I concentrated too much on theory, not as much on working out problems. The second time, I worked out lots and lots of problems. I think taking the exam is two-fold... knowing the theory (which you can get from reading a reference manual that prepares you for the EI test) and knowing test-taking skills (which you acquire by practicing lots of problems). Although I've heard of people who simply passed by just practicing lots and lots of problems.

I, too, passed on my second attempt. Good luck!

I knew exactly why I failed the first time... basically I didn't study at all. I studied for my second try and passed.
