Summary: Must have supplement but also need NCEES
Comment: I took the exam today (10/24/03) and had this working along with the big Lindeburg Reference book. This is a great supplement to the big book. I took the structural afternoon session and flagged 2 problems that dealt with concrete design. I actually sifted directly to the problems I flagged in here instead of digging through the big book and I got the problem answered quickly.
Besides the basic structural questions, most of the problems in this guide are probably too involved. This is why as another review mentioned, I recommend you get the NCEES sample questions as well. That book is put out by the organization that is in charge of the PE exam and their problems are much more realistic to what you will be getting the day of the test.
One other thing to note...a lot of the transportation problems in this practice problems book refers directly to transportation codes such as HCM, AASHTO, etc. I would have liked it if some of these tables were in the Civil Eng. Ref. Manual so I wouldn't need a copy of the code everytime I wanted to study at home.
But I still say this is a must have.

Summary: Better than the last one!
Comment: This edition is an improvement. It provides complete questions and answers. It is nice to have a quick reference, of just questions and answers. However, I found that I used the material in the Reference Manual more than anything else--especially on the exam.

Summary: Use NCEES practice exam also
Comment: Some of these practice problems are good, but if you really want to get a good feel for the exam, I suggest buying a sample exam from NCEES. It has half the number of problems (20 morning and 20 afternoon) of the actual PE exam and is in the same format.
