 Excellent Review Book October 31, 2008
This book is a perfect review book. It covers everything you need to know for both the morning and afternoon General Engineering portions. If you cover all 55 chapters you will be well prepared. Don't wait until the last minute to buy this. I bought this 3 weeks before the exam and I spent a lot of long nights going through it just to finish reviewing-get it at least 1 1/2 months ahead.
Excellent Review Manual! October 26, 2008

I sat for the FE exam yesterday and had used this book as my study guide. I took the general afternoon section, which is covered by the FE Review Manual as well.
One of the major selling points for this book is "Pass the exam or get your money back." It's obvious now why they make that claim. The thoroughness of this study guide is such that there are no unexpected questions. As I sat moving through the sections of the actual FE exam, it felt exactly like moving through different chapters of this book. There were no surprises.
A hint to future FE test takers is to study the "Engineering Economics" section. This is one of the easiest sections to snag points. I overheard many people in the lobby talking about how stupid it was and how they didn't understand any of it. The FE review manual does a great job of explaining the interest rate tables in the Reference Manual (the manual you can use during the exam), and once you understand how to use them, the problems are a breeze.
One warning, when you use this book, it's very easy to reference the chapter you're working on to find an equation. Make an effort to only use the FE Reference Manual when doing practice problems (Order or download a copy of that as well. Make sure it's the most current edition). Once test day comes, you'll know it well and have no problem finding what you're looking for.
Good Luck!
 Not the best... October 24, 2008
I purchased this book along with the Mechanical specialty study guide. I've only been out of college for 6 months, but I still found this book to be confusing and unhelpful. Its basically only good for practice problems because the review sections are WORTHLESS. Even in the practice problems throughout the book I found numerous typo's and mistakes in both the problems and the solutions. I haven't tried any other book to compare it to, but there has got to be something better...
 Good Choice October 24, 2008

The review manual has been very helpful to my review sessions as well as a text to use as a reference.
