Welcome to the Engineering Pro Guides

Thermal & Fluids PE Course

This document will explain how the course works and our recommendations on how to use the
course to pass the PE exam. The course uses multiple teaching methods to enforce your
understanding of the necessary key concepts and skills.

FOR EACH WEEK, COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING:

STEP 1 - READ TEXTBOOK & TAKE NOTES


You will receive your hard copy textbook in the mail. Shipping
to the US is included in your course cost. You may also
access an electronic copy (PDF) of the textbook on the course
website. Please follow the schedule and read the appropriate
chapters in the textbook.

(Included in all courses)

STEP 2 - WATCH VIDEOS & TAKE NOTES

Next, watch the on-demand videos. The on-demand videos go over the key concepts and skills
that you need to know for the PE exam. These videos are shorter and specific to each concept
or skill. There are also videos that show you how to complete the common exam problems.

(Included in all courses)

STEP 3 - WORK PRACTICE
PROBLEMS IN TEXTBOOK
The practice problems in the hard
copy textbook (technical study
guide) are on the easy to medium
level of difficulty. Please
complete steps 1 through 3 before
the class problem solving session.
(Included in all courses)

STEP 4 - ATTEND CLASS PROBLEM SOLVING SESSION


I will take you through the material and sample practice problems. This session will be live for a
16-week study period, which consists of two 8 week sessions. The first 8-weeks will focus on
learning concepts and developing skills. The second 8-weeks will review the concepts and
focus on problem solving. You can ask questions live and if you miss a session, the session will

be recorded and will be uploaded the next day. (Included in all courses)

STEP 5 - COMPLETE PRACTICE PROBLEMS (Pre-Recorded)

Navigate to the Practice Problems tab of the course website and select the section of the week.
Download the PDF problems for that section, complete these problems on your own, then watch
the video for a step-by-step explanation. Be sure to practice using the PDF version of the
NCEES Mechanical PE Reference Handbook.

STEP 6 - COMPLETE PRACTICE EXAMS


Once you have completed
steps 1 through 5, you should
now be ready to take the mini
exams. There are at least two

practice exams for each
section. When you take the
practice exam, your ultimate
goal is 6 minutes per problem,
but feel free to take as much
time as possible. The practice
exams are another teaching
method to challenge you. Also
feel free to use any of your
resources, EXCEPT the
solutions. The solutions will be provided to you after you complete the exam. The exam is
given online, there is no hard copy given. In our experience, the people that seem to struggle
the most with the PE exam, all seem to have one thing in common. They tend to look at the
solutions before challenging themselves to solve a practice exam problem. Don’t be afraid to
spend 30 minutes solving a single problem. The research you do to solve the problem will be
very beneficial in the long run. (Included in all courses)

STEP 6 - REVIEW & REPEAT
After your practice exams, you may want to revisit the completed section. You should compare
your score on the practice exams with others in the class. If you are performing at the median,
then you should be on track to pass the exam. If you are scoring below, then you may need to
revisit the section. (Included in all courses)

STEP 7 - FINAL EXAM


Once you have completed
Steps 1 through 6 for all of
the sections, then you can
gauge where you stand with
the final exam. The final
exam has scores from past
test takers, so you can
compare yourselves to those
people and see your level of
preparedness. (Included in
all courses)

STEP 8 – READ REVIEWS

Read past reviews and


recommendations. Lastly,
please read through the reviews
and recommendations of the
past test takers. The survey
shows who passed and what
they did to pass. It shows you
what they recommend you do
and what they wished they
studied more. Newer versions
coming soon. (Included in all
courses)
