Assorted Testimonials
Thank you for a very good in-depth course. I feel that I am well prepared to pass the exam.

The Class was very thorough. From the detailed introduction of the material and pace of the class, to the example problems and sample exams. Dr. Ibrahim gives you all the tools you need to pass the exam. During the lectures, topics are explained thoroughly, and key concepts are identified and emphasized. The problem solving workshops have step by step hints to guide you through each problem. But for me, the easiest way to learn is to do problems, and this course gives you a ton of problems to solve. Throughout the course, Dr. Ibrahim makes himself available for one-on-one help. I just wanted to thank you for the time and the materials you provided. You made it almost impossible not to do well. I am now a registered P.E., and I have Dr. Ibrahim to thank for it.
