Nothing on it was really "hard" its just a lot of stuff to know!
I took a class with the SPE -society for Pro Eng's- and used,
F E Review Manual: Rapid Preparation for the General Fundamentals of Engineering Exam
Author: Michael R. Lindeburg
and study the crap out of the "reference book"
Then Just take the General Exam.
If you do use the Lindeburg book, it is much harder then the actual exam, so when you take the exam its not to bad.
Good Luck

if you want, get the FE review manual mentioned above, i got it and the practice tests help...with knowledge and learning the pace you need to keep.
I highly agree/recommend getting the 'reference book' ahead of time and reviewing it..knowing where certain information is. I was the only person in my class to have used it before we took the test and seemed to be the only one not confused by the layout of it...

The three best pieces of advice I can give you are:
1. Know the reference book and tables
2. Know the approved calculator and how to use it efficiently
3. Do what you know first and come back to the other portions. The test is scored evenly so easy or hard doesn't matter, just get it right and finish as much as possible.
As far as what portion to take I took the Mechanical Section (being an ME it fits) but there was another broad based section I could have taken.
Study materials are simple. Look at the book summery in the back of every engineering class book you had.
Good Luck!!!
Engineering has always been my love, but it ended up being my second career...
