Every FE practice exam runs in an online exam simulator that reproduces the actual computer-based NCEES exam: the same 110-question length, the same 5-hour-20-minute clock, and every question type the real exam uses — multiple choice plus fill-in-the-blank, multiple-select, drag-and-drop, and point-and-click. With 1,100+ questions per discipline, the full set works through every equation, table, and chart in the NCEES FE Reference Handbook, so no formula on exam day is one you haven't already used under time pressure.
After each exam, a detailed score report breaks your performance down by knowledge area, so you always know which subject your next study hour belongs to — and you can retake every exam as many times as you like, in timed exam mode or in practice modes that show each solution as you go.
Our FE Civil Practice Exams give you 10 full-length, 110-question exams built to the official NCEES FE Civil specifications — all 14 knowledge areas, from statics and structural engineering to water resources, geotechnical, and transportation, weighted exactly like the actual exam. Every question is solvable with the NCEES FE Reference Handbook alone, includes the realistic exhibits civil questions depend on — beam diagrams, soil profiles, data tables — and ends with a step-by-step solution citing the exact Handbook section.
Our FE Mechanical Practice Exams cover the full breadth that makes the FE Mechanical hard — 10 full-length exams spanning all 14 knowledge areas, from statics, dynamics, and mechanics of materials through thermodynamics, heat transfer, and mechanical design and analysis, each weighted to the official NCEES specifications. Questions use the exhibits the real exam relies on — property tables, performance curves, diagrams — and every solution walks through the setup, the equation, and the exact Handbook section it came from.
A side-by-side comparison of what's included—so you know exactly what you're getting.
The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam is the first of the two exams on the path to becoming a licensed Professional Engineer. Administered by NCEES year-round at Pearson VUE testing centers, passing it earns you the EIT designation — the milestone most engineering employers look for first.
The exam is 110 questions in 5 hours and 20 minutes of testing time, delivered on computer with the searchable NCEES FE Reference Handbook as your only reference. Read our full breakdown of the FE exam format for exactly what to expect on exam day.
NCEES offers the FE in seven discipline versions — the standard advice is to take the one matching your degree, where your coursework does the most work for you. Wondering about your odds? See the current FE exam pass rates by discipline, and our honest look at how hard the FE exam really is.
Most candidates prepare over one to three months. Our guide to how to study for the FE exam lays out a week-by-week plan, and the FE exam cost breakdown covers registration fees and what your state licensing board requires.
Which FE Exam Should I Take?
Take the FE exam that matches your degree — FE Civil for civil engineering majors, FE Mechanical for mechanical, and so on. Your coursework covers most of the knowledge areas on your discipline's exam, so it is almost always the fastest path to passing.
Are Practice Exams Enough to Pass the FE Exam?
For most candidates, yes — the FE tests material you already studied in your degree, so the highest-value preparation is realistic practice that rebuilds recall, Handbook navigation, and exam-day speed. Our practice exams are designed as complete preparation: they cover the entire exam scope, and every solution teaches the concept behind the question.
Is This Prep Aligned with the Current NCEES FE Exam Specifications?
Yes. Every practice exam follows the current official NCEES specifications for its discipline, with question counts in each knowledge area mirroring the actual exam. When NCEES updates the specifications, the practice exams are updated with them.
How Does the Money-Back Passing Guarantee Work?
If you complete our practice exams, pass the final test, and still fail your FE exam, we will issue you a 100% refund — no access extensions, just your money back. See the Projectific Passing Guarantee page for full details.
Do I Need Anything Besides the NCEES FE Reference Handbook?
No. Every question in our practice exams is solvable with the NCEES FE Reference Handbook alone — exactly like the actual exam, where the searchable Handbook is the only reference you are given. Practicing this way builds the Handbook navigation speed the timed exam demands.
How Long Can I Access the Practice Exams?
You will have unlimited access for the duration of the subscription period you select at purchase, starting from the date of your purchase — with unlimited retakes of every exam.
