How Aggie Li Crushed the Civil FE on the First Try While Still in School

How Aggie Li Crushed the Civil FE on the First Try While Still in School

What’s it like to crush the Civil FE Exam on the first try, with less than two months of exam prep…all while still juggling a full course load in grad school?! 😮

Just ask Aggie Li. 👇

Aggie is a civil engineering master’s student at UMass Amherst who became an EIT using The Ultimate Civil FE Review Course, and is now headed for an internship position at Burns & McDonnell.

In this episode, Aggie brings all the good energy as she shares her decision to take the FE early, why she felt she needed a course even with university resources provided for free, and how she carved out study time in an already packed weekly schedule.

If you’re a student in either undergrad or grad school and needs that motivation to lock in and get this done before work and life get in the way, this episode will fire you up!

Aggie’s got a bright future ahead, and after listening, you will feel like you do, too. Guaranteed! 😉 🎧
