I would add to this that the calculator you use should be one that you will be allowed to use on your FE and PE exams. The exams are stressful enough without trying to learn how to find functions on a new calculator.
Heidi, that's a great point! Using a calculator that's allowed on the FE and PE exams will definetly save you the headache of trying to figure out a new one. (or using the on screen calculator provided)
Martin, it looks like it is possible to take the FE exam in a non US site. Please see page 8 of the pdf I found on the NCEES website. Best of luck! ncees.org/wp-content/uploads/Criteria-for-Evaluating-the-Admin-of-Exams-at-Non-US-Sites-August-2018.pdf
Thank you! Very helfpul! Would it be possible to make a video on how to master a calculator especially for future FE exam? we are allowed to use Texas Instruments TI30XIIS Scientific Calculator . Thank you for all your tips!!! I will forward to my classmates!
Eva, thank you for the comment. I used, and currently use, the Casio FX115ES Plus. I like this calculator becuase the display is really clear among other reason. If you'd like, I can make a video on the calculator that I am familiar with (Casio FX115ES Plus)? Thank you for sharing!
@@evazhang3232 Best of luck! Shameless self-promo but here is a video on the Tips and Trick to help pass the FE on the First try: th-cam.com/video/GW3tcW13UpI/w-d-xo.html I hope this video also helps and you crush the FE!
I would say Excel and Word are important to be familiar with going into Engineering school. Most engineering programs are taught or self-taught through one of your courses. For example CAD or REVIT will probably be used on one of you later term project so you don't need to worry about them before starting.

I can’t learn calculus
Sorry about that. What makes you say that?
I agree that calculus can be very intimidating at first.
