There have been exam changes on the FE and there’s no better way than using an up-to-date manual to practice on. At this point in time there are 110 multiple-choice questions and you’ll have six hours to complete them. If you do the math it’s easy to see you’ll only have a few minutes to answer each question. The areas covered in the exam include:

► Mathematics
► Probability and Statistics
► Engineering Economics
► Statics
► Dynamics, Kinematics, and Vibrations
► Mechanics of Materials
► Fluid Mechanics
► Thermodynamics
► Heat Transfer

All of these are very thoroughly covered in the FE Mechanical Review Manual. Just checking around the net shows me that a prep course can cost up to a whopping $900. Add the FE Mechanical Practice Problems manual and you’re looking at a bargain. It doesn’t seem like one until you do some comparative shopping.

Are you going to pass? If you are conscientious about studying and really work through the prep book and the practice problem one (I highly recommend getting it), it is guaranteed you’ll pass. If by chance you don’t, there are instructions on the inside for a total refund. You probably won’t need it, but you won’t need an expensive course either.

The topics do cover everything on the exam plus some. You’ve taken the courses, but each chapter has a comprehensive summation of what you’ve learned with a sufficient amount of example material to job your memory. For example, when you’re looking at the chapter on combustion, you’ll review heats of reaction and combustion.
I can see the great need for this FE Mechanical Review Manual. I like the method used by Michael R. Lindeburg. He has written a true refresher course that he calls a "Review Manual" and it definitely does offer his "Pass The Exam – Guaranteed" on the front cover. That’s a huge promise with the price at over $200. However it does make the reader feel that this is the best. After reviewing "The Most Comprehensive Book for the Computer-Based FE Mechanical Exam" I see why he placed this guarantee on the front cover. It goes into detail of actual problems and solutions to 15 main topics with over 60 sub topics in order to fully review, refresh, study and practice one’s skills in Computer Based Testing to Prep for the FE Mechanical Examination/ Test.

As you review for the exam you are offered advise in Test Taking Skills in several methods. The actual exam gives only an average of three minutes to fully read, understand, calculate and solve each question or problem. One doesn’t have the luxury of being nonchalant about preparedness because one’s career is on the line with how weak or strong each individual exam taker has prepared. Also it’s impossible to check your answer with someone in close proximity because of the Computer Based Testing has made cheating or checking impossible via its randomness in the layout of each person’s individual test. The person besides you will have a different test, guaranteed! Today’s institutions are providing the skills and knowledge needed to pass the test but if you’re not a recent graduate, this seemingly common skill sense of on the job knowledge, combined with a 3 minute time frame for each problem will be difficult to make the score you need.
