What's Covered in the Free Three Part Video Series

List of Steps

step 1

Find Your Resources

We all know that the PE exam is an open book exam.  The first thing you need to start gathering is your resources.  This free series will focus on your breadth resources, but it will also cover where you should be getting your depth resources too.  

Standards are also a must.  You need to make sure you bring in the standards that relate to your depth topic with you.  And make sure you get the latest editions or the editions that relate to your depth exam as outlined from the NCEES specifications.  You do not want to be caught missing a few easy questions when they can be simple look up problems.  

We go into a little more depth about your resources, what's good, what's bad, and everything in-between.

step 2

Exam Strategies

Is the exam tricky?  Is it hard?  Is there a method to guessing on the PE exam?  These questions are asked every exam cycle and so we cover it as part of the series.  

The exam isn't necessary tricky but they do throw things on there that will make you think - or even take a double take.  These are the kinds of things covered and we can't wait to share them with you.

step 3

Specification Review

You know you need to review the specifications put out by the NCEES.  Let us help you navigate some of it.

We'll also dive into some of the pass rates and discuss sections that are a must to study and others that you might need to focus on so much.  

step 4

Study Effectively

Many civil engineers have been out of school for 2 to 4 years.  The study habits of college have long been gone and they need the help, motivation, and guidance to get back into study mode.

This free video series will help you to determine the best strategies to study effectively so you can maximize your time.  We know how busy you are with family, work, and all those hobbies, so let's get back into the saddle and learn how to study effectively for this exam.  It's not an easy exam. 

So there you have it.  I guarantee that this will help you get to where you are going - and that's to pass the PE exam.  Let us help you start out the right way.  Sign up and get going on it!
