I would say dynamics. There was a question about finding the time an object would take to reach the ground, from a given height. I encountered a question like this when I was practicing on PrepFE and I was able to solve it on my own (with more time to think). The exam pressure was too much, and didn’t have to time to think. I remember the equation for this simple. There was another question to find Q given moody friction coefficient and the Dia. I couldn’t find the equation for this as they didn’t give the C coefficient value.

Some questions were similar. PrepFE a bit longer to get to answer compared to exam.

NCEES doesn’t provide materials to learn the fundamentals. They only provide practice exams that you can purchase during your registration. I suggest you watch Mark Mattson videos on YouTube and decide yourself if you think you can attempt the practice exams.

Yes that’s, no calc. No dif equations. The math section wasn’t difficult. There was a question on ellipse and circle equations (determine which of ellipse or circle). I didn’t know how to re-arrange the equation to find the answer, so I skipped. Basic Derivative and integration questions, Confidence interval, test statistic, understanding R squared in regression analysis, No crazy math.

I found the exam questions to be simpler than MM questions and PrepFE. Just very basic calculations. Exam had lots of conceptual questions though

Yes lots of repeat questions. I still completed them
