Question about Reference Book for CE PE Test
Question about Reference Book for CE PE Test
(OP)
Hi,
I'm going to be taking the CE PE test either this fall or in April of 2007. I have the Civil Engineering Reference Manual for the PE Exam by Lindeburg. However it's the 7th edition (I purchased it about 6 years ago when I first decided to take the CE test, but did not have the time to prepare for the test, so I put it off).
My question is: Should I get the latest edition of the Lindeburg reference manual (10th edition)? Or would the 7th edition be adequate? I've looked online at the 10th edition on amazon.com - the table of contents hasn't changed a lot. I realize that the book probably references newer standards, etc., but would this justify the cost of buying the 10th edition?
Thanks for your help!
