Passing the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam is the first step toward becoming a Registered, or Professional, Engineer. The P.E. designation is a prerequisite for work as a consulting engineer, as well as for engineering management positions in many industries. This book prepares applicants with a mini diagnostic test plus a full-length two-part practice examination with questions answered and explained. Prospective test takers will also find valuable brush-up chapters covering all test topics: biology, chemistry, computer programming, dynamics, electricity and magnetism, engineering economy, ethics and business practices, fluid mechanics, materials science and structure, mathematics, probability and statistics, mechanics of materials, statics, and thermodynamics and heat transfer. Additional practice questions with answer keys and explanations follow each chapter.
| Great Source to Prepare for the FE Exam | 2009-11-01 | 5 / 5 |

| This book had a mini diagnostic test to help you see what areas you are having problems with. Then it goes into a review of all subjects covered in the test. At the end of the book there is a real 8 hour design test (morning and afternoon questions). Taking this exam helps you prepare for the actual FE test. A great companion with this book would be the FE Exam Reference Manual because it is the only book that you will be allowed to use during the real test. And knowing how to move around the book to find a certain equation or subject will be to your advantage because you will save time. |

| This was the only book I used to prepare me and pass the FE exam. I chose to use this book because it is cheap and pretty comprehensive. I didn't study every subject but focused on the subjects that pertain to Chemical Engineering. I only found two minor errors in the answers from the practice questions that I tried. The financial section was especially helpful as I had many of these kinds of questions on the exam. The tables and equations given in this book are very similar to the ones given on the exam. |

| I don't have time to be correcting answers in the solutions section. I just finished the math section and their are typos and incorrect answers in the section. I don't have time to be correcting a Professional Engineer's (with a Ph.D.) mistakes. This book is cheap and I am going to have to buy the regular FE book. I fear that I will follow the solutions on something I don't understand thinking I am doing it correct when it is in fact wrong. Thanks Barron's, you really are the leader in test preparation. |

| This book gave me a good idea of what to expect on the exam. Though I didn't use it to its full extent, I felt much more prepared after doing some of the practice exams. |

| Bought this for my daughter (biomed engr) who only used the short diagnostic test, and then used various sample problems for practice. She had no prblm passing the FE on the 1st time. (Which reinforced my opinion from my own experience some twenty-something years ago. Time is better used doing your own "polishing" of your skills rather than travelling to/fro and sitting in a review session that merely points out what you'll have to go back home to review and practice.) |
