PE for Mechanical
PE for Mechanical
(OP)
I am looking for PE review material, and was wondering what people have found useful (I am sure this has been covered before, but I couldn't find the thread), and also if anyone has review material they are looking to sell at a reasonable price. Thanks.

I've also got a copy of the 2001 Fundementals from ASHRE that has never had what I was looking for and I'd be happy to sell it cheep.

MERM, as mentioned already (also check out the www.ppi2pass.com site)
Mark's Standard Hanbook for Mechanical Engineers
Roark's Forumulas for Stress and Strain
Mechanical Engineering Design by Shigley and Mishke
I took a box full of books to the exam with me. I used the MERM for about 80% of the exam and these other three books for the rest. I took the Machine Design section as my depth area, so your mileage may vary.

I am trying to set aside the money to buy the Shigley book now.

I feel for you. I have both the book and solution manual that I can't get rid of...

Not only can I not give it away, it cost over $100 and I can't bring myself even to put it in a box in the garage! It is taking up room on my groaning bookcase, and I just can't get rid of it. Funny how attached we get to stuff we spent our own money on.

You simply don't have enough stuff!!
When you get to point of having so much stuff that books are overflowing the shelves, it becomes much easier to file stuff in the garage.

Same here. When I went back to MERM, I brought the Potter's book back to work thinking at least I can use it. It has been sitting on my desk unused ever since. It is a $100 dust bunny collector.
