I passed the EIT with just 1.5 months of 2-3 hour a day study !! Jan 15, 2007
By Sachin G. Pradhan
"The Saurion"
I bought this book rater late around mid-September 2006 and I was supposed to take the October 2006 exam. I was rather doubtful about passing the exam. I studied from this book and this book alone for 1.5 months. Studied everyday regularly for about 2-3 hours. Then I took the exam. Even though I am a Civil-Environmental Engineer, I took the General EIT. I got my results in the 1st week of Jaunary and I am thrilled to report that I have passed the EIT. I can be confident enough to say that even if you guys study this book....say everyday for 2-3 hours regularly, it is sufficient to pass the EIT based on a 1 to 1.5 month study duration. So, its never too late. The level of problems in this book is tougher that those you will encounter in the actual EIT. Hence, you will find the actual EIT bit easier. I will suggest concentrate on the Math section very very well. Master the Math, and you are more likely to pass than anything else.
And dont forget my motto "STUDY SMART NOT HARD". Instead of trying to cover up all the syllabus, try to cover only about 70-80 percent of it. But what you study....dont just study it....master it!! The exam is all about passing, not scoring. So you want to make sure you study the high weightage topics first and master them. All you care about is passing the exam. So it doesnt matter much even if you leave out a few small topics that end up being about 20-30 percent of the syllabus. You can guess those questions and get about 25% of them right. While guessing, make sure that you mark all answers the same...i.e....mark all answers "A" or "B" or "C" or "D". You probability of getting more answers right increases that way.
Overall, awesome book, very detailed and very well written.
I would recommend it to anyone wants to pass the EIT in the first attempt itself.

Shocked that I Passed Jun 19, 2008
By H. Thomas Baker After being out of school for 15 years, I had a lot of work to prepare for the FE / EIT exam. I worked nearly every problem in this book over a 5 month period and didn't really have time to look at other books. I passed the Florida exam so it certainly helped.
My biggest complaint about this Manual is that it doesn't reference the equations found in the NCEES handbook. As you know, the NCEES handbook is the only reference material allowed during the exam. To solve the problems you have to rely on equations presented at the beginning of the chapter. These equations are not always found in the NCEES so it gets confusing.

I Passed the FE, the book works Feb 12, 2007
By Chris Nastally Michael Lindeburg does an excellent job in preparing you for the FE. I was in school and still bought this book for reveiw. I am normal and forget some of the many things I've learned while in school, so this book was a good way to re-establish what I had forgotten and bring me up to speed on everything I would be tested on for the FE. Yes the problems in the book are more difficult than the actual test; however, when you are training to run a 10 mile race, do you practice by running 10 miles? No! you run 20, so on race day a 10 mile run is like a walk in the park. Buy this book, it does it's job. I passed the FE w/ 2 months of solid studying using only this book & the Civil prep book my Lindeburg.
Just remember the biggest portion of the General morning exam is math. Hit it hard. I would also recommend becomming familiar w/ the NCEES supplied reference handbook.
Good Luck!

Good Review Book for the FE Exam Jan 17, 2008
By Steven Shimizu This book is well-written and contains everything you'll need to know to get a high score for the FE Exam. There are a lot of practice problems that are more difficult than those encountered on the real test, so if you can't do all the problems, it shouldn't be a big deal when you take the real test.
Some things you should be aware of: This will be the only text you need ONLY if you plan on taking the general exam in the morning and the general exam in the afternoon (as opposed to an exam more specific in your field, like chemical engineering). The general exam in the afternoon is more difficult and covers different topics than the one in the morning (and pass rates are generally lower for people who take the afternoon general exam). Thus, if you plan on taking a module specific to your field in the afternoon, you'll need another FE review book specific to your field. With that said, all the chapters in this book are not necessary if you plan on taking a non-general exam in the afternoon. Make sure you find out which chapters you need to study or else you'll go through a lot of unnecessary material for the morning exam, which is what I did.

What make me pass FE exam after 10 years of graduation ? Jul 23, 2010
By Ahmed Hamdy OK, in short, I just pass the exam from first shoot using primary this Book.
I am Elec. Engineer, graduate from 10 years back on Y2000. On academic wise I am rusty enough to fail in the first attamp with no dought .
About the book : - Very organized in logical manner, I feel smooth when I am turning from one chapter to another in the same subject - Chapters are smart: good SHORT & Focused on concept, a lot of excersis with descent difficulty makes you confident that you understand the concept, also coming with full detailed answers. - Questions are harder than exam, IF you do all and correctly solve most of them and go through solution for your wrong answers, "Congratulation you passed FE "
So what I did exactly to pass ( I think if you follow me you will also pass from first shoot) 1- You should like to do study. Your are not torturing your self !! your doing something good for your brain & your future 2- You should be very realistic about TIME , some people can do it in 1-1.5 months 2-3 hr daily , but for me it took 6 months to study, BASED on : i- when you graduate & how much you remember ii- what actual time available per day & per weekend . For me after 3 + 8 hr = 11 hr of working 1 hr each day is my maximum 3- Simply you can't understand every thing, so you have to do real focusing on subject with : i- Higher percentage of the exam ( Math 15%, engineering mechanics 10% , elec 9%, economics 8% etc.. ) I just master them and solve each & every problem with high focus at least for these 4 subjects ii- What you really like so you can go through all details without pain. Simply I drop thermodynamics totally, material properties & little chemistry 4- I do one FULL revision in the last month 5- In the last week I just do exams 6- Purchase one exam from NCEES to really see if I am ready or not, it was for EE discipline ( 60 question general + 30 ee )
Good luck all
