    • Green text identifies equations, figures, and tables found in the NCEES Handbook
    • FE-style problems, diagnostic exams, and sample exam all have an interactive quiz feature. Solution is not shown until reader selects an option.

Reader can attempt problems as many times as they wish.
    • Sample problems have the solution hidden. Readers have the option of working the problem and comparing their solution to that given or using the sample problems for review only.
