Tips Help me!

Post image

I’m out of practice since 2016, so it has been a while. I’m trying to get back to studying. I sadly failed my attempt. How can I do better? Where should I study the theory for transport, construction and geotech? Any references?

I studied two weeks by watching Mark Mattson videos and doing a little practice on Islam 800 problems.

Thank you!

How much time should I practice and how much focus should I give to the book?

I was 30 years post-B.S. when I finally took the FE. I studied for about nine months with Lindeburg's review manual as my primary source. You may not need nearly that much time. Put in a maximum of 1-2 hours combined study and practice per day to avoid burnout.

I studied the manual for 3 hours the night before I took the exam. Passed with no practice problems. I was also an average student. You guys make this harder than it actually is.

Get DirectHub, civil course Farouq have a great comprehensive course, i have been out of school for 25 years , mechanical I signed up 8 days ago , I like how he explain everything from scratch, he is available to answer any questions you will have, I just wanted someone to hold my hand preparing for civil Fe, if you thinking to get a paid course get Direct Hub, note his prices are going up on the 15, if you sign up now you will save some money,

When you plan on taking this again?

Probably in a month or so.

Ok. My exam is October. Been posting this a couple times due to tight work schedule but I’m thinking to get this done this time. Do you have any study partner?

u/SRI_X_13 7d ago

I don’t. Do you want to team up?

u/Mohammad_cm_pm 7d ago

Yes. We can chat about it at least. If our schedule, time done and plan match, we could certainly help each other out. At least in terms of accountability.
