This review is from: Structural Engineering: License Review Problems & Solutions (Paperback)
I bought this book to prepare for the SE II exam. I did not find it very useful. The problems are from past examinations (1970's and 80's), but NCEES does not publish old test questions. So I am guessing they are from old California state SE exams. I found the problems really complex. They are much more complex than the practice problems published by NCEES themselves. I learned more by studying my college text books and the code books.
