PE exam help

[MALY]

I am scheduled to take the PE exam in April 2000. Would you please give some of your studying experience. I do mainly work in Geotechnical and Structural.<br>
what are the review guides you use ?<br>
Would the other subjects be enough to cover the minimum required number of problems on the exam?<br>
Which subjects did you concentrate on? <br>
How many hours on the average did you study weekly?<br>
And whatever information you can think of.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

You will probably be allowed to take reference books to the exam. A good source for titles is: <A HREF="

It is a web site for technical books. When entering, use the quick search and enter 'Sructural Engineering Handbook' also try 'Geotechnical Engineering Handbook'.<br>
<br>
Many of the books are very expensive. A good source for out of print or used books is: <A HREF="

Good luck.

I worked mostly structural problems on the exam I took with a few civil (roadway design) problems. If you are familiar with steel and concrete, you should do well. Good luck!
