Whats the difference between the General and the Discipline Specific part of the FE exam?
The General section is given in the morning and consists of 120 multiple choice questions covering various subjects across ALL engineering (i.e. math, physics, chemistry, probability, etc). The Discipline Specific section is given in the afternoon and consists of 60 multiple choice questions covering only subjects in your core engineering discipline (i.e. chemical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, etc).
