I had heard about Zach's class from a former classmate and after failing my first test, was willing to give it a shot. Having received the hallowed, green "Pass", I can definitively say the class was worth every penny. I feel like Zach gives you all the tools to succeed, and drives you to use them. The PE is about knowledge, but it's also about your confidence and putting in the hard work.
The test is hard haha! It is the culmination of everything for an engineer and not meant to be giving out for free. Zach's resources are fantastic, the material is well prepared, but I think more than anything, Zach does his best to foster confidence in his students. In my opinion, the test requires a certain level of confidence. 8 hours and 80 questions of tough problems don't just get answered correctly through sheer luck.
I am not the typical "sign up for this class to succeed" kinda guy. I like to learn it and do it on my own if I can, but I will honestly say that I would've taken this class before my first attempt knowing what I know now. I don't know if I would've passed, but I DEFINITELY would've gone into it with a different mentality which may have made all the difference.
I can only speak from having failed my first attempt. It drove me to really take my second more seriously. I didn't care about pass statistics, metrics, etc., I just wanted a chance to do better during the test and feel better after completing the test. Zach's class provided that.
The long hours, lack of a personal life, lack of sleep, and months of studying are overwhelming, BUT that green pass is so worth it. I know this is the cheesy stuff that you read everywhere, but when that load is lifted and you realize that it's finally over... that feeling is indescribable. I can't promise passing for anyone, BUT I can promise you, that if you really dedicate yourself to this class for a few months, take good notes and listen to Zach's classes you will have the best chance of passing.
Thank you Zach, I appreciate what you're doing for all of us.
