EIT FE Electrical Exam Resources, Tips, Tricks, Preparation

I am preparing the EIT Exam for 2017
Also planning to share my notes, Experiences, and Thoughts through this blog
Please review related blogs.

I prepared a mindmap for my exam preparation


My Mind map notes and other handwritten notes will be uploaded in these notes



The FE exam-  110-questions.

The exam appointment time is 6 hours long and includes
  • Nondisclosure agreement (2 minutes)
  • Tutorial (8 minutes)
  • Exam (5 hours and 20 minutes) 
  • Scheduled break (25 minutes)
110 Questions / 5 Hr 20 Min

need 20 Hour for checking and revision
remaining 5 Hours
5 Hours x 60 Minutes = 300 Minutes
Means 2.72Min for each Q ans A
If we took 2Min for normal Question then 220Min (3Hours, 40 Min) rest of the time for Revision
