Of all the PE exams, more people take the civil than any other discipline. The eight-hour, open-book, multiple-choice exam is given every April and October. The exam format is breadth-and-depth -- all... This description may be from another edition of this product.
What a great resource to have while you're taking the test. Some of the problems in this book were very similar to those on the exam. I'd highly recommend this book, whether it's your first time taking the PE or you've taken it a few times, this book will help it be your last!
Help PE Exam

Taking a big exam like this can be unnerving if you don't know what to expect. This book will give you a good idea of what to expect from the PE Exam. I did some sample problems from the book for a couple of saturdays before the test to get back into "test" mode. That was a great help. The book also gives you an idea what you need to study. After all you aren't going to re-read all your college text books. By the way... I passed first time. --- Good Luck!
This is a great reference tool after the exam, too.

I wish that I'd had this book when I took the exam, but its a great reference tool still afterwards as well. The problems and solutions are in separate sections so you can work them without having seen the solution first. That is a detriment to using it for a reference book, but is great for preparing for the exam.
