Circuit Analysis Boot Camp

I have been out of college for 26 years. While my current job keeps me in tune with electrical power, you do not use a majority of the course material you learned in school. In addition, codes and other subject matter, such as National Electric Code for instance, is not taught to you in school. This course helped me to start studying, keep me on track reviewing the various section of the electrical power PE, and focused up to and going into the exam. The course has been well adapted to the new CBT format. I was originally focused on the open book but this course re-focused me to the new format. Every area of the exam is reviewed during the course and weekly homework during the course, keeps you on pace leading up the exam. Simple tricks provided during the course helped me to maneuver through the exam efficiently and eliminate second guessing yourself. You feel confident in yourself. I am coming on 50 years old and if I can do it, you can too. This course is honed in to get you through this difficult exam! I highly recommend Electrical PE Review.com!!

Just passed the exam!! I have never been great at studying, honestly, I am very bad at it. However, I have never been more engaged and set up for success than in this course. The instruction from Zach was clear and effortless, the class structure was fantastic, and the review materials were on point. After the course, I understood the material so well the test was a breeze and an easy pass. Cannot recommend enough.

I am happy to share that I passed my PE Power Exam, I got my results on Sep 7th. I was enrolled in Zach Stone, P.E. course. His Live classes along with online on demand course helped me so much to prepare for passing the PE exam. I learned all the tricks for solving problems by attending all live classes and reviewing all sections online. I am so so thankful to the Zach Stone, P.E, and I greatly appreciate his help and support.

This course helps build the foundations for every topic on the PE exam. Then the course helps build upon the foundation to help guide you in learning all of the topics at an expert level. Truly a wonderful class for anyone taking the PE power.

When I began preparing for the PE I signed up for a different company’s program. My thought process at the time was that the other class had several instructors, all experts in their fields, and Zach was just one guy. After completing the other class I felt unprepared. Explanations and solutions were not detailed, no common teaching process, and they all seemed like this was a part time gig. I took the exam and to no surprise failed. After that, I signed up for Zach’s class and couldn’t be happier. His consistent methods, detailed and simple explanations, and commitment to keeping material up to date made a huge difference. To compare, I could not average more then a low 60 on the official practice test after the competitors class. After Zach’s I made a 93. I 100% recommend this class. If you commit to it, you’ll be rewarded.

I am very thankful for this course and for the opportunity to learn and review a large breadth of Electrical topics from someone as knowledgeable as Zach. The course was very organized and engaging. I felt that it covered all the topics necessary to successfully complete the Power PE exam. To say that this course and the practice exams were spot-on is an understatement. On exam day, I was comfortable completing each problem and was left with ample time to check my work. Studying for the PE exam will take a large amount of your free time over the course of months; however, the result is so worth it! Not only can you gain PE licensure upon successful exam completion, but also a greater understanding of many topics after having completed this course. I attended the on-demand classes to work around a busy work schedule and the flexibility that came with this was extremely helpful to me. Zach clearly has a passion for teaching this material and I certainly plan to recommend this course to friends and coworkers!

Wouldn't have passed without the review.

The online class is worth doing to pass the PE exam. This class will help prepare you for the questions on the PE exam. I recommend going through the theory and then put the main focus on the multiple choice practice questions online.

Couldn't have done it without this class!

The sections of the course on the Dashboard are well organized and flawless. The content is broken down in a manner that makes it easier to grasp and follow through. Each topic (not just the sections) have great quizzes and examples. Zach is very charismatic and engaging (in recorded videos or live classes) and makes preparing for the PE a fun and fruitious experience. Thanks million times Zach, and best of luck to all.

I am a Mechanical Engineering grad, but transitioned into Electrical Engineering at my company. I was not very familiar with the theory side of electrical engineering going into this, but felt it was best for me and my company to continue to pursue the electrical side of the PE. I needed a course and all the forums pointed me to ElectricalPEReview.com, and I'm super glad it did. The 3 main benefits from this course for me: 1.) Zach is a fantastic teacher, he uses real world experience while explaining the theory (even bringing in experience from the live audience). This helps conceptualize the information, and there we multiple incidents on the exam I was able to back up, use the theory to change my approach and get me the correct answer. 2.) The design of this course is fantastic. I loved the on demand classes, and when you take a practice exam the modules allow you to target a weak area. Correct the problem and next time you have it down. 3.) The test taking tips and tricks are invaluable. One of the most beneficial classes was the first one for me. He explains study scheduling and tips and tricks. The 8 hour study session is a must, because that test is a grueling 8 hours. This course shaved off at least another 4 months of studying for me personally.

Zach's course is absolutely the best one stop shop for helping you prepare for the Power CBT Exam! There were several new concepts that I'd never used in my work experience and had to learn through this course. The way Zach presents his material makes it's easy to follow and makes learning fun! Between the Live Class and the OnDemand material, Zach covers everything you'll need to know for the exam. The student message board is a huge bonus that's makes you feel that you're not in this alone and that you've got your fellow students and Zach's back! One of the most attractive quality of this course is Zach's dedication and personal commitment to delivering a comprehensive course from start to finish and you know you're getting the very best from the instructor himself. Thank you Zach for helping me pass on my very first try!

I can't thank Zach and this course enough for adequately preparing me to pass the PE exam on my first attempt. We all know our time is super valuable and the course, if followed to it's max extent, does a great job of building your knowledge and intuition without wasting your time. Some details about my exam experience and background: -Recent EE master's grad (so recent I was completed it early July '22 while prepping for the PE exam and studied for both concurrently). -I bought the course in April and took the course on August 6th, but I didnt fully begin studying solely for the exam until July when I finished the PE, so I only had about one month of fully dedicated studying (*note: I do not recommend this approach, it's just what worked for me, my work, and my family with other major career milestones approaching). -When studying concurrently I focused on the PE about 2 days per week, covering between 6-8 hours of material. -The final month I 'crammed' studying for the PE 6 days a week, completed two full-length, full-simulation practice exam sessions and probably allocated 22-25 hrs a week each week that last month. -I took the course as an online, asynchronous student, and watched every live class on 1.5 or 2x speed (some more than once) but never joined live. When I started I was averaging 25%-35% on practice exams of differing lengths. My last practice using Zach's full length exam I got a 55%. This is all to say that it's possible to pass, just as many others on here have stated, even if you're not getting 70+% on what you may consider to be a 'diagnostic.' Good luck and get after it! -Mike F

After hundreds of wasted study hours and exam attempts, an old college friend referred me to ElectricalPEReview.com . I knew from the 1st class that I was in a different league of exam prep, from the organization of the schedule to the enthusiasm of Zach during the presentations.

Zach was a fantastic teacher and had all the necessary materials to make me feel prepared as possible for the exam. Being able to use the online modules to learn at my own pace was perfect for me and let me focus and spend more time on more difficult concepts than others where I may have already felt comfortable. I will be recommending this class to any other future electrical PE's that I know.

Taking this course helped me by getting started on the daunting task of studying for the first time in years. It reduced my anxiety by breaking down the material into manageable topics, unlike the totes of college material I kept thinking I would use someday. The third thing that made me successful In passing the test was the live classes. This helped keep develop a schedule and helped me put in time each week with my peers and helped keep me working towards my goal each week. Not only did Zach do a great job with the needed material but also brought studying advice and energy into his classes. This class has helped me and many of my coworkers to pass as well as others who have or will sign up this fall and winter.

I have a degree in Civil & Construction Engineering but through chance I have been practicing Electrical for the past 7 years. I was able to pass the Power PE Exam on my first try anyway!

Recently passed the PE Electrical Power Exam and I opted for the Unlimited Package for 6 months and all I have to say is this is hands down the best and most in-depth course you need to study and prepare for the exam. Zach has perfectly structured his course to the CBT testing platform and the way he's organized all the material is super helpful since it felt like I was taking an Undergraduate Electrical Engineering Course. (Not to take away from my professors in college, but his teaching methods, steps to solving every possible question that can be thrown in the Exam, his drive and motivation to make sure all of us understand problems and pass the exam is second to none). While I was not able to attend the official Live Classes, following along the course syllabus, and viewing the recordings still made it feel like I was a part of the experience with the students. 11/10 recommend the unlimited package course and I am excited to collaborate with the current and future PE Electrical Engineers in this world!

By far the best resource you're going to find that's solely focused on helping you pass the Electrical Power PE exam. The course covers a massive amount of material but carefully focuses only on the fundamentals and concepts that you need in order to past the test, and doesn't waste your time or energy on fluff information. The class format works really well, ranging from live classes that simulate a professor writing on a whiteboard, to quizzes that simulate answering questions during the CBT exam, all with very helpful tips and tricks on how to use your calculator. The variety helps keep the workload interesting and engaging while concept after concept are thrown at you. Zach provides great support and was very active when it came to answering emails and replying the message board. This course is just as good as all reviews make it out to be! You can and you will pass the PE exam. With effort, motivation, and the right tools (this class!) I was able to knock it out, and anyone else can too. :)

I purchased the 6 month unlimited package and it was worth every penny. Zach takes a lot of time to constantly update materials and the course content. With the transition to CBT, he really focused on the importance of fundamentals and which subjects were not worth a lot of study time. Putting in his suggested hours for the duration of the class allowed for me to pass on my first try! I would suggest his program to anyone who is thinking of taking the Power PE.

The course covers everything needed and helped me not hyper focus on subjects that hold less value in terms of the test question topics. I watched the recordings of classes (sped up of course) and loved the fact that I could rewind if I needed to really absorb what was being said. I only participated in the discussion board to post questions. That being said students who were constantly answering/asking questions on the discussion board were really great resources. Overall the course was a great price and a valuable resource. I will definitely recommend this course to colleges.

Because of this course, I passed the exam the very first time. Zach designs, prepares and carries out the course in a way that prioritizes vital content and strategies that allow you to use your time preparing for the exam in the most efficient way possible. I was also extremely impressed by how much he would go the extra mile to ensure student success by sometimes going beyond the scheduled class time to ensure that all content was not just covered but fully understood by the class. He was also always available to clarify any questions or problem areas outside his class as well. I had every obstacle in front of me when it came to passing this exam. I did not receive my degree in the U.S., English is not my first language, I often work overtime, and I have a toddler at home. My time was limited, but the course was designed so well that I could prioritize the little time I had to concentrate on the most essential content and strategies. If you are someone serious about passing this exam, this course is a must.

My PE Exam experience was "one and done," and thank goodness, because I could not have gone through this experience a second time. I'm by no means an electrical engineering savant and definitely needed this review to brush up on topics that I don't use in my profession on a regular basis. However, it wasn't just that -- Zach Stone's instruction style helped my finally understand some power engineering principles that I never quite grasped in college. It's nice to finally feel like I have a firm understanding of this stuff. This class not only gave me the structure I needed to pass the exam, but it's given me a confidence boost by enhancing my understanding of the nuances of my profession overall. If you're serious about passing, I cannot recommend this course enough. But, be prepared, because you really need to work for it.

I passed the PE on my first try! I followed Zach’s instructions from the very first class where he mentions how much you should study and how many practice exams to take! Definitely a must if you are taking the electrical power PE!

If you want to pass the electrical PE exam, take this course! Zach is an excellent teacher who cares about his students. I have learned so much, and I am a better engineer because of it.

This platform and the courses were by far the best tool I had for studying for the PE. I got all the recommend books from reddit; Graffeo, complex imaginary, Wasim, and the official white NCEES 80 problems. I would say get on this platform and the NCEES test book and call it a day. No need for the other books. You'll save money and have a much better experience. There are plenty of practice questions on the platform. The videos and examples are fantastic and easy to follow along with. I cannot recommend this course and content enough.

Zach's courses and materials was extremely helpful for preparing for the CBT version of the PE exam. Highly, highly recommend registering for this ahead of the PE exam!

I finally PASSED the PE - Power Exam (CBT FORMAT)! After multiple unsuccessful attempts of taking the PE exam (pencil and paper format). I really had to take a different approach and searched for a different Electrical PE program. After exhausting all options I finally committed to the Electricalpereview program. And to say the least. I’m extremely glad I did. Their program emphasizes the importance of understanding the fundamentals. It provided me with necessary building blocks to be successful. This program will give you the knowledge and understanding of the subject to know when you’re wrong when answering a question. During the exam I had ample time to go back to the questions I flagged for review. And I heard Zach (the instructor for electricalpereview) in my head asking me the most fundamental questions. What kind of a problem is this? Single phase or three phase? Can you draw a single circuit for this problem? Is it LIne to Neutral or Line to Line? And because of these questions I was able to answer the questions that initially left me puzzled and sure enough I had many “Light Bulb Moments”. I strongly recommend this course!

Thanks, Zach for the videos on youtube, when I was looking for additional detail on fundamentals such as autotransformers, two-meter watt methods,...etc I came across Zach's youtube videos & webinars and videos which helped me better understand those subjects. I recommended the Premium Online Review Course (EE PE Exam), which will help you remember or gain the fundamentals back especially if you graduated a long time ago ( in my case 20 years ago). Zach's explanations go to the fundamentals in an easy way to understand. In my experience with the PE exam, you need to fully understand the fundamentals and the familiar with NEC code. good luck to everyone.

I had been studying since early 2020 to take the PE exam, but it kept getting cancelled due to covid... I took all of 2021 off because work & life tend to get in the way of studying. I found out about electricalpereview.com through Zach's youtube channel, and really liked how he explained the topics in depth! Decided to subscribe monthly 2 months out from my exam date, and I am so glad I did. Zach is super responsive to all questions via email, his material is by far the BEST at explaining theory and why problems are worked certain ways. Every other study material I had bought previously had so many mistakes / was not very high quality or just outdated for the CBT exam, but Zach is always on top of his material for mistakes & keeping it up to date. I highly recommend biting the bullet and doing the ultimate package to give yourself 4ish months of studying and wait until he has the actual live classes (it really helps to have peers going through the same things you are when studying). The website is a little hard to navigate & some stuff is a little hidden behind different sections, but once you get a feel for how his website is formatted, it's not that big of a deal. I believe 100% if you absolutely commit to his material & spend the time going through the topics, doing practice exams & AIT questions & the online live classes, you will pass the exam! It was so worth it for the months I was subscribed, even though it was expensive, and I'm so glad I found his material. Zach Stone is AWESOME and his stuff is the highest quality study material out there for the power PE exam!

I found Zach's course very instrumental in not just passing my PE exam but also giving me tools and insights that are useful in my career. Since I work in automation, I had limited experience in power generation, distribution and other subjected areas of power systems. Zach's approach of breaking down concepts and providing simplified approaches to model complex systems gave me the direction and competence I needed. In a way, he overprepares you for the exam. I highly recommend this course for any aspiring PEs.

If you're having trouble deciding on a review course to help with studying for the Power PE exam, look no further than Electrical PE Review. I had taken and failed the PE exam twice, and I had used another study course in a previous attempt. Zach Stone's course is so much better. He fosters an environment of support and communication in and out of the class. I love that participation is encouraged in class and in the discussion board. The solutions to practice problems are clearly spelled out in a step-by-step fashion. There are numerous topics that I couldn't wrap my head around until I used this course. I remember having the best luck in math class with instructors who had backgrounds in which they had practical experience in applying math. This is very much the same; it's clear that Zach has the experience and the understanding to break down these topics to those having trouble. After two fails, and after participating the in on demand review course, I was given free time due to his pass guarantee. I then participated in the Premium Online Review Course Live Class and have been rewarded with a pass. Zach stands by his pass guarantee, and you don't have to jump through hoops to prove you completed 100% of everything that the site has to offer to get additional time in the course to work on your weaknesses. While there is plenty of study material that will supplement your studies here, I STRONGLY recommend you don't waste your time with other study courses to help yourself prepare for and pass the Power PE exam.

THANK YOU ELECTRICAL PE REVIEW! After two attempts at the exam(Dec 2021 and Apr 2022), hundreds of hours of studying and reviewing, some sleepless nights, and a wave of emotions, I'm so glad to be able to say that I conquered the PE Electrical and Computer: Power exam! Thank you Zach and the Electrical PE Review team, not just for the quality content, but also for the course re-take guarantee. I had first taken the exam in December of 2021, but had found out that I had not passed, unfortunately. I emailed Zach and let him know the situation, and after verification, he had renewed my membership for the course for an extra 6 months. To any prospective students looking to take the exam, this course is well worth the time and money. The course is structured very well, both the on-demand videos and live class meetings will help you reinforce essential concepts, and the practice problems will challenge you and help you become better equipped to tackle the questions you will come across during the actual exam.

This will be a long review, but given the amount of effort it takes to pass this test and the amount of time and money you'll spend preparing for it, you deserve a long review. I enrolled in Zach's course as a first-time PE test taker. I was led here from Reddit, where I read countless positive reviews of his course, and none of them had anything negative to say. First, the On Demand Course. It's organized great and takes you step by step through each topic. The videos are typically 5-20 minutes in length and are perfect for the busy individual. Like most of you, I have a full time career and little kids running around the house. Sometimes I only have 20 minutes to study, so those videos are perfect. I could watch them easily on my phone when I was putting kids to bed or riding as the passenger in a car. The short quizzes help you determine if you need to rewatch any videos. The Live Class is great and stands by itself, although you'll definitely want to do both On Demand and Live. Even better is you can rewatch the Live Class the very next day. This allowed me to still keep a schedule where I was doing each class every week, but I could rewatch it the following day at 2x speed and cut down on the time commitment. The Live discussion during class is beneficially, but it does move fast. The Discussion Board is the underrated area of what you get. Like most message boards, the majority of people will be lurkers and not post. But there is still a decent amount of activity with people asking questions and giving answers. And Zach makes an effort to answer any questions that haven't been addressed. I encourage everyone to not only post questions when you're stuck, but try to answer them even if you aren't confident. You will learn 100x better by typing out an answer to a question or typing up your own questions. Studying for this test is a huge time commitment regardless of if you choose this course or someone else's. But I knew I wanted to minimize the amount of wasted time. I didn't want to flip through a bunch of text books. I didn't want to have to constantly be googling answers. I wanted a one-stop shop, and Zach's course allowed me to do that. For that reason, its worth the price tag. I did not have much real experience in many of these topics. Most of this was new to me and I was able to learn it in three months. I walked out on exam day feeling fairly confident. I passed on my first attempt. The price of Zach's course may seem high, but its worth every penny to minimize your effort and maximum your chances of success.

Before I took this course, I was skimming through textbooks and YouTube videos. Having the video + text + diagrams + formulas neatly organized by topic and sub-topic was extremely helpful.

good

This is a great course. It helped give me structure and where to start studying for the PE exam.

I am 20 years experience electrical engineer. last time I was in a school was 10 years ago. This program helped me to come up to the speed quickly. The course content was appropriate and relevant for success of the PE exam. Live classes are great way to go through material without reading and trying to understand books with complicated language. To me, time is the most important thing, and this program is the most appropriate way to get ready for the exam.

Very thorough and comprehensive review course that uses multiple elements of teaching styles for different types of learners. From visuals, to active conversations on the discussion board, diagrams, answering questions during the live class, Online review courses etc. This is an excellent course and alot of work goes into it from Zach and his team and students receive alot of value.

A friend of mine who passed the PE exam told me about this great course and I took it and the experience couldn’t be better, Zach has the gift to teach people well. All the material in his course it’s perfect for the exam. I successfully passed the PE exam with this course. Thank You

This course gives you all the preparation you need to succeed. I completed the on-demand review course from December thru January prior to starting live class. I learned so much in such a short amount of time. I moved my test date from April 26th to March 4th and managed to pass the CBT PE power exam on my first attempt. This was my 5th time taking the PE exam but last took the pencil and paper in 2014. I had been studying for the Electrical Contractor exam since September so the NEC code questions, voltage drop calculations and protection questions were all fresh in my mind. I owe Zach Stone a great deal of credit for really helping me master Circuit Analysis, the per unit system, power factor correction and Fault Current Analysis. To me the power and circuit fundamentals along with hard work are the key to passing this exam. If I can do it at 39 years old, then you can do it. Never Give Up! Don't let this exam beat you. Study Hard, learn the material and you will be successful.

Took the class for 2 months as my only source of studying and was able to pass the PE exam. Note that I only took the premium courses and did not sit in on any live classes so have no opinion on those. There are definitely areas in the course that had a different focus from the PE exam, but the concepts I learned helped me answer any new questions asked of me.

Thank you for the high quality and organized structure of this course. I appreciated that the course provided an 80/20 approach to the exam and did not dwell on topics that are not heavily tested. I also appreciated that fundamentals such as circuit analysis and code-related question were reinforced during practice problems for all topics. Having watched all the lectures and completed the NCEES and Electrical PE review practice exams, I felt prepared and confident going into the test.

My experience in Zach's class has been phenomenal. I started off studying for the last paper and pen exam before it was canceled. At that time, I was using the free trial of Zach's course followed by using practice tests I had found online and reddit to get questions answered as needed. Once the CBT format was implemented, I decided it was time to enroll and I am glad I did! The self paced review modules are thorough and truly got me ready for the test. I honestly abused the random problem generator and used it as my main source of practice when not taking a full practice exam. By the time I left my exam, I was feeling confident that I had passed and was thrilled to see my result when it came in. I cannot recommend him enough.

High praise for Zach Stone and his course. It's worth it. I learned more from this course than I did in my college power class.

I took the electrical PE review course and passed after 6 to 7 months of studying and preparing. I highly recommend taking advantage of Zach's online course. The course will walk you through what you need to know for each section of the exam (and exam handbook). There is a practice quiz after each major section. And beyond that, there is also a live class that gets into each section of the exam as well and practice exams and other helpful videos and tools. I was very happy with the course and the results. I put in the time and passed!

I studied for the PE exam with two kids under two and a full-time job. Zach's course compromised of all my study material apart from the NCEES practice exam and a few problems out of a textbook. Suffice to say, this course is more than thorough enough to pass the exam, just don't forget to absorb the concepts and theories behind what you are learning. Good luck!

The Premium Online Review Course was the reason I passed my PE exam! The course content was organized the same way as the exam specification is written by NCEES. The content was broken down to it's simplest form and the examples provided range from easy, medium and difficult. When you take the exam the problems will seem so easy because Zach's problems are more difficult. You aren't wasting a moment of your time if you only use this material to prepare for the exam. It's the most efficient way to prepare for your PE exam. You can't find any better source of exam prep. material. Choose the unlimited subscription package, listen to Zach, don't give up and you won't be disappointed.

Brace yourself, because you will learn a lot in this class. If you can maintain the discipline necessary to stick to a serious study schedule, this class will provide you with more than enough knowledge to pass the exam, and you will become a better engineer along the way. Zach has a talent for teaching, which you experience in the live and recorded class videos, the keystone of Electrical PE Review. Even though I was very intimidated at the beginning of the class, his warm demeanor made me feel right at home. Don’t be afraid to ask him questions! Zach has worked in the industry, and his practical knowledge very nicely complements the course materials.
