Pass the FE Without Giving Up Your Year
The whole FE Civil exam, covered in under 12 hours of focused lessons, not the 40 or more a lecture course asks of you.
Every NCEES knowledge area, none of the wasted time
Nineteen subject modules cover every one of the 14 NCEES FE Civil knowledge areas. Nothing is built that falls outside the current specification.
Short, single-concept lessons
546 lessons across 19 subjects. Each one teaches a single idea, so a study session fits into a lunch break or a gap between classes, not just a free evening.
Taught in the book you get on exam day
Every lesson, quiz and practice question is built on the NCEES FE Reference Handbook, so the reference stops being a 500-page stranger on exam day.
Try the problem before you see the answer
Worked examples in every module, each split into a problem video and a separate solution video. You attempt the problem, then watch it worked, instead of passively watching someone else solve it.
546 Short Lessons Across 19 FE Civil Subjects


One idea per video
Every lesson stays on a single concept, taught visually. Study in short, focused sessions and still finish something.
Worked examples you attempt first
In every module, each worked example is a problem clip followed by a separate solution clip. Try it yourself, then check your approach against the solution.
Quizzes in every subject
All 19 subjects carry quizzes, with every answer explained, so you check your understanding while the concept is still fresh.

Practice at Full Exam Length, With Real Exam Tools
Two complete 110-question practice exams
Full-length practice exams matching the real FE Civil length, weighted the way NCEES weights the actual exam, not a random question bank.
A simulator built like the real CBT exam
Timed, with a searchable reference, a built-in calculator and question flagging. Question types include standard multiple choice plus the NCEES alternative types: multiple correct, point and click, drag and drop, and fill in the blank.
Two ways to sit every exam
Study mode checks each answer with its explanation as you go. Exam mode runs timed and straight through, the way exam day will feel. Same exam, two ways to use it.
See exactly where you're weak
Every exam scores you by NCEES knowledge area, so your next study session comes from data, not a guess.
Practice-exam results describe your performance on that practice exam. They are a study tool, not a prediction of your official exam result.

FE Civil Prep Course FAQs
When does the FE Civil course launch?+
The PEwise FE Civil prep course launches on October 30, 2026. Join the waitlist and we'll email you the moment enrollment opens.
Can I try the course before I buy?+
Yes. From launch, the first two modules are free, with no credit card required: the course introduction and Engineering Probability and Statistics. You create a free account and get the real modules inside the real player, not a trailer.
What is included in the PEwise FE Civil prep course?+
19 subject modules and 546 short, single-concept video lessons covering all 14 NCEES FE Civil knowledge areas, worked examples in every module, quizzes in every subject with every answer explained, and two full-length 110-question practice exams with a CBT-style simulator.
Does the course cover Surveying?+
Yes. Surveying has no NCEES Reference Handbook chapter of its own, so it's taught across several modules: coordinate and area geometry in Mathematics, area and earthwork calculations in Construction and Transportation, and grades and elevations in the vertical-curve lessons, plus both practice exams. The course covers all 14 knowledge areas, including Surveying, without a dedicated Surveying module.
How is the course built from the NCEES FE Reference Handbook?+
Every lesson, quiz and practice question is written from the NCEES FE Reference Handbook, the same reference you're given on exam day, so you learn the exam in the book you'll actually have open during it.
How long does the course take?+
546 lessons total 11 hours 40 minutes of video. Each lesson teaches a single concept, so you can study in short sessions. Video time is only part of your study time: plan for worked examples, quizzes and two full-length practice exams as well.
What are the worked examples like?+
Every worked example is two videos: a problem to attempt on your own, then a separate solution video to check your approach against, so you practice before you watch.
What's on the practice exams?+
Two full-length, 110-question exams, weighted the way NCEES weights the real FE Civil exam, with standard multiple choice and the NCEES alternative item types: multiple correct, point and click, drag and drop and fill in the blank. Take them in study mode, which explains each answer as you go, or exam mode, which runs timed and straight through.
Do the practice exams show my weak topics?+
Yes. Every exam scores you by NCEES knowledge area, so you can see which subjects need more review. Results describe your performance on that exam and don't guarantee an official result.
Is this a subscription?+
No. FE Civil is a one-time payment of $99 for 3 months of full access. There's no auto-renew and nothing to cancel. If you need more time, a $70 extension adds another 3 months.
Is there a discount for studying with classmates?+
Yes. Groups of 3 or more each get $30 off, applied automatically at checkout.
Are there live sessions?+
Yes. FE Civil students get the weekly PEwise Power Hour, a live online problem-solving session. The day and time are announced at launch.
Is there a pass guarantee?+
Yes. The Pass Guarantee provides one additional three-month access period when you complete all core lessons, take the official FE exam, and submit NCEES results showing you did not pass. It is not a refund. Review the Refund Policy for all terms and exclusions.
What is on the FE Civil exam?+
The NCEES FE Civil exam is a computer-based test with 110 questions across 14 knowledge areas, delivered in a 6-hour appointment that includes a tutorial and a scheduled break.
Where can I find the official FE Civil exam specifications?+
Visit the NCEES FE exam page (https://ncees.org/exams/fe-exam/) for the official FE Civil specification and the FE Reference Handbook.
Is this an FE Civil course or a PE Civil course?+
This is an FE Civil review course: it prepares you for the FE Civil exam. PE Civil is a separate exam with different preparation needs and different course pricing.
