Ok for review,

This review is from: Practice Problems for the Civil Engineering PE Exam: A Companion to the Civil Engineering Reference Manual,10th Edition (Paperback)
I definately learned something from doing some of these problems, but I feel like it is only halfway converted from the old style of testing. Yes, they converted to the multiple choice answers, but still each problem built on the last. So, in that respect it was annoying. I found myself trying to look at the previous answer without seeing the answer for the next problem. If you want some good problems that are exactly like the exam, get the NCEES book. That is the best practice.

Didn't seem like enough problems per chapter,

This review is from: Practice Problems for the Civil Engineering PE Exam: A Companion to the Civil Engineering Reference Manual,10th Edition (Paperback)
I opened up this book a few weekends ago for the upcoming test. I was really disappointed in that there were only 2 or 3 questions per chapter! It did not seem like enough for such a LARGE & expensive book (500+ pp). I was also told by my colleages that the questions do not mirror what you will encounter during the PE exam, so I really don't know how useful it will be to go through the sample problems when they won't prepare you for the exam. I suppose that is why it is titled, "Sample Problems" and NOT "Sample Exam Problems." Skip this book and just get the ones geared towards giving you sample examination problems!
