Solutions Manual (SI Units) for the Engineer-In-Training Ref [Posted on 2000-05-27]
This is the book to study in preparation for the EIT exams.

Tons of errors [Posted on 2007-04-18]
This book for the most part is good for studying and the problems cover many areas related to the exam. However, this is the 3rd edition for which an errata does not yet exist. Having been studying with this book for several weeks now, it is LITTERED with errors. I would NOT recommend buying this book until a full errata is available. Buy the 2nd edition and view the errata online. We spent hours trying to figure out problems that were done incorrectly. Units don't work out, wrong numbers used, etc. Big time waster and it is hard to have confidence in learning from this book when it has this many errors.

Good Reference for General FE Exam questins [Posted on 2007-05-19]
Well written, questions are similar in scope and difficulty to actual FE exam questions. Does not cover discipline specific exam questions (civil, mechanical, etc.) No actual practice tests, but good questions and solutions.

A Must Have [Posted on 2007-12-26]
I've been out of school for ever. I studied for 6 months and failed. I changed my studying strategy after that. Instead of going back and studying the subjects from ground-up, I did almost all of the practice problems in this book twice! Except for differential equations (skipped that section entirely). I think you still need the ground-up knowledge but don't over do it if you've been out of school for a while. Get this book and work problem after problem. Most of the questions on the exam didn't scare me because they were very similar to the problems in this book. Now I'm moving on to the P.E.!

Con: I'm not the sharpest guy by far but I did find some errors in the book which were not published. So I'm sure there are more that I didn't find.

Pro: It's about half the size of the FE Review Manual, Rapid Preperation for the General Exam 2nd Edition, so you can take it with you anywhere.

I also recommend the above mentioned review manual and the FE/EIT Sample Exam, 2nd Edition. These three books got me through the exam.
I used the HP33s and just programmed the vectors, which helped me out with a couple of questions. (every point counts!) The only other thing useful was the statistics which is already pre-programmed.

Good Luck!!!
