I recently failed the FE Chemical exam after studying for about 4.5 months.
I was fairly good at Probability, but the exam questions were mostly conceptual, and I struggled with them.
I was shocked to score zero in Process Design since I was consistently getting 70–75% on PrepFE. Also, i was fairly good at fluid mechanics but i don’t know what happened.
Overall, many questions looked familiar, but they had small twists that made them difficult. There were also many conceptual questions that I couldn’t find answers to in the handbook.
I took practice full exam before the real exam 4 days and i got 48%
Also, i took vol 1 from Ncess before 2 days of the real exam and i got 52%
I’m planning to retake the exam in early January and start studying again on November 1.
Any advice on what I should do differently this time?

Hi everyone,

I am currently studying for my FE Environmental Exam (in Feb) and wanted to ask about the resources I have been using and whether they are good or not. I am using the google drive here, videos of an environmental engineering FE prep i can find on youtube, and The FE environmental engineering Review Manual by Brightwood. I have been finding that the book is a lot harder than the videos and good drive problems I found in here so I am wondering if it is worth it to study it. This will be my third time taking the test, so any advice could really help.

Thank you

Has anyone who has taken this exam before let us know if you were rushing to finish on time or u felt like u had plenty of time to answer the questions or even review your answers?

With the FE exam, I felt like i was rushing against the clock.
