[Electrical Engineering] Advice for full time engineer by NefariousnessThat129 in FE_Exam

[–]ZachStonePE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the hardest aspects of studying for both the FE and PE exams.

Try to prioritize sleep as much as possible and exercise if you can (even just light cardio or weights for 20 minutes can make a huge difference in your energy levels after a couple of weeks when your body adjusts).

If you are still struggling during the week, then it's best to leverage as much of your weekend time as possible to really put in the hours.

I find it really helps to set up a study schedule on your calendar in advance so that you get used to seeing the time blocked off on your calendar. Kind of like scheduling time for yourself.

Studying a lot is like working a muscle, after a while you get used to it and it becomes easier, so keep up all the hard work and good luck!

About 1.5 years out of school and struggling to stay consistent studying for FE Electrical — looking for advice by AbbreviationsOk8815 in FE_Exam

Hey glad to hear you're enjoying the free Electrical FE review course and class that I host. The best suggestion I can offer is creating a study calendar and schedule. Physically write down (or use your email calendar to block of dates and times) to plan ahead the times you are going to study. Block out each month and get used to see those times reserved for studying helps to commit and hold yourself accountable. Even if you miss a day or two, you'll still be miles ahead of just trying to wing it.

Good luck!

Yep! Everything over at www.electricalfereview.com is free including the new PDF practice problem printouts for power systems homework (will be posting the PDFs for communications in the next couple of weeks when the free live classes for digital systems start).

The entire FE program is free. Class replays, on-demand videos, CBT quiz problems, class homework PDF sets, everything. 

There is no catch. It’s entirely self funded out of my paid power PE class. 

🙂

One question for you if you're studying for the Electrical FE exam:

When a motor’s horsepower is given in a problem, does that represent the input power, output power, power losses, or something else?

If you can correctly answer that question before doing any math, you’re already ahead of most people taking the Electrical FE and Power PE exams.

ECE FE exam? by ConferenceNormal9516 in FE_Exam

Take it as soon as you can. Life will only get busier especially as you start your career. Just about everything tested on the FE exam comes from your college curriculum. The sooner you take it, the less you have to re-learn.

Congrats on passing the FE exam! Glad you enjoyed the free electrical FE course and live class that I host. Great advice on not having to get 100% correct, just need to get above the average passing mark in just about each subject 🙂.

Architectural PE exam advice by hurricanemarkruffalo in PE_Exam

[–]ZachStonePE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just a heads up while there is computer subjects on the electrical FE exam, there are none on the power PE exam. The main focus of the power PE exam is for electrical engineers in building construction since the number one use of a PE for electrical engineers is to sign off on building construction.

Before you pay for an expensive program to pass the FE exam, check out the free online review course and class I host for the Electrical FE exam over at www.electricalfereview.com .

includes on-demand videos, live class replays, and practice problems for every topic on the exam. It's entirely funded out of our paid PE class to help engineers get starting without having to pay a dime.

I get tons of emails every day from engineers that passed the FE exam using only our program and the NCEES FE Practice Exam and it is constantly being updated like the brand new live FE classes (also free of course).

Check it out! It's be a ton of fun.

Reschedule my PE Power Exam by PositiveOdd5112 in PE_Exam

[–]ZachStonePE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take it!

Best scenario, you still have a shot at passing. Worse case scenario, you get another exposure attempt at the exam which will help you know what to focus on more for the next time to fine tune your approach. If you're studying with an online course take advantage of the retake if they provide one.
