By far you best bet is to invest in a good exam prep course. You will be able to take sample exams, and it will give you a good idea what you need to know and where to focus your study.

(As a disclaimer I used to teach these courses, but I no longer do).

Start with prep material from ABET.

Thank you for the tips. Do you purchase material from ABET? I took a 17 week prep course and while we covered an abundance of material, I saw very little of that on the exam. With all the work I put in I felt I missed something somewhere, I was not prepared. I have taken it just once - but honestly, as I sat there in the exam - I was trying to evaluate HOW I was going to pass it the next time, because it just seemed like all the problems and practice tests I did (9 months worth - no kidding) did not prepare me. I did not RECOGNIZE much at all. With all the material covered - SOME of it should have been familiar, eh?

I went through much the same process before I took the FE. I had been out of school for 6 years at the time. I bought a couple of the books that had both study material and practice exams and spent about 10 hours every weekend for 6 months studying for the test. My BS is in Chemical Engineering so I did not have the background for much of what is needed on the FE (statics, geotechnical, structural etc...).

Good luck.
