1) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. The amount of errors, even with things as simple as addition, make studying a real burden. Several times on the tests I have gotten an answer that doesn´t match any of the multiple choices, but on comparison with the solutions my entire formula is correct and they messed up the algebra at the end.
The list of contributing professors in the front made me laugh, I would be embarrassed to have my name associated with this book.¤ 2) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. It is fun to have the test on a cd, I guess. (That´s why I chose it, although the actual test is paper based, so I am not sure why I bothered.) The CD isn´t worth the frequent mistakes. The morning exam, for instance, contains at least 4 major errors (out of 120 questions) There may be more among the dozen or so questions that I have no clue about. The interface does not actually make it easier to target the difficulties - I had to copy by hand all of the problems I got wrong so I could look them up in the explanations mode.
Some of the other prep books have errata online - REA doesn´t. The text is visually challenging and poorly written. I wish I had purchased a different book.¤ 3) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. I bought this book (and the PM version) to restore my years-ago university knowledge. I read virtually all of the PM book, and a wide but more random swath of the AM book. I did pass the FE on the first try, for what that´s worth.
The good: the questions in the book were of the same type and difficulty as questions on the actual exam. The reviews are decently written, though I admit I don´t usually do more than briefly follow worked problems and focus instead on the text. What I particularly liked about the review sections was their independence: I felt quite normal skipping around things that I more or less remembered.
The bad: the book is fat, includes a lot of extra material and, yes, blatant errors. Also, the problems are usually tough to follow, and the reviews assume you have (or had and can quickly recover) a thorough knowledge of the subject. Fluids still confuse me, for example.
Overall I was happy enough with the texts, especially given their price compared to others of the same kind. They restored enough of my memory that I at least knew something about each exam question... and given that I haven´t used most of that knowledge for years that´s saying quite a lot!¤ 4) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. I bought this book because it was the only one that B&N had. While reviewing it, there have been a few times where I´ve said to myself, "Wait a minute. That makes absolutely no sense." I thought it was just me until I heard from other people as well about all of the errors. There are some blatant errors in examples in this book, such as units conversion or solving for something completely different than what was asked. And if the errors in the examples are this bad, it makes me wonder what sort of errors are contained in the review sections. Personally, I just ordered the same style book from another publisher, and I´m going to throw away this book when the new one comes.¤ 5) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. The book help me review for the exam but it could be much better. Basically, If I´m finding mistakes in the book, something is wrong. I found some sample problems with units that were incorrect (ie Pressure, N*m^2 instead of N/m^2) and a few times the worked exam problems would be have different units or would be change from meters to millimeters. Overall, the book did help me during the exam, but if I was going to do it over again, I would purchase a different review book.¤ 6) Paperback Book FE - EIT AM (REA) - The Best Test Prep for the Engineer in Training Exam (Test Preps) by Research & Education Association. This test preparation book contains three full-length exams modeled after the newly revised AM portion of the FE(EIT). Step- by-step explanations are presented. Knowledge of the first 90 semester credit hours of a typical engineering program are tested. Thorough reviews are provided for all areas tested on the FE, including the two new sections, Computers and Ethics. For engineering students who are pursuing an "Engineer-in-Training" certification.¤ Page Updated: Robert N. Goolsby, 4-Dec-2008, 08789107789780878910779, 110-780-570-471-281-441-8
