FE : PM - Electrical Engineering Exam, The Best Test Preparation for

IT HELPS ON POWER SYSTEM, CONTROL AND SOME COMPUTER PM QUESTIONS ...A TOTAL OF 15 OUT OF 60 TO DO BETTER YOU'LL NEED TO STUDY OTHER MATERIALS AS WELL BUT OVER ALL NOT BADTHX. GOOD LUCK .

I bought a new copy of this book for the April '04 FE exam. First off, the newest copywrite is 2000. This book has very few spelling or grammatical mistakes. Chapters are very short and don't go deep enough into each subject and don't provide enough examples. Each topic is covered in only a few pages, so don't look here for in depth coverage. I found the exam drastically different from this review guide. The exam has changed alot since 2000 and this book should be updated to reflect that fact. There are lots of questions on the exam dealing with digital systems and signal processing that aren't even mentioned here. The two practice exams were way off from the test itself. You'll notice the author has tons of questions on the practice tests about computers, their memory, etc, yet hardly any of that was on the test. I recommend that if you are still in school and have recently had courses in communications, digital systems and signal processing, consider taking the EE part of the afternoon exam. I've been out of school for a year now and really should have taken the general version of the afternoon exam. I barely passed with a 77 (70 being the minimum to pass) only because of the great general exam review guides by M. Lindeburg and M. Potter. [...]

This book is the biggest pile of crap. Not only is it extremely outdated, the example problems and practice tests are multiple times harder than the actual test. The writing is poor, the section depth is laughable, and the explanations are even worse. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a decent PM EE book, they all seem to be quite worthless. Of the 3 I've referenced, this one is by far the worst.

I purchased this book in addition to the FE Review Manual by Lindeburg. I took the FE exam 2 weeks ago and the content in the Electrical PM book was nothing like that on the exam, in fact, the examples were much more difficult than the actual exam problems.I would go with the PM Electrical book by the same publishers as the Lindeburg book, PPI. This book from REA was not helpful.
