What recent PE candidates say

I tried several different programs for both FE and the PE (Mechanical) study prep. I will say this with all honesty, Mechanical PE Exam Prep is one of the best out there. The questions are very close to the type you will see on the exams. In most cases they are a bit harder, and will prepare you well. There are video answers for every question, so you will get more context in the answers. Dan Molloy is also one of the most accessible experts, and is always there to provide guidance, or more context if needed. Do yourself a favor and look into Mechanical PE Exam Prep. You will not be disappointed.

A few days ago I got the good news that I passed the PE Mechanical: HVAC and Refrigeration exam.It was a long road of study and sacrifice but I firmly believe that without the help of the program offered by Eng. Dan Molloy: HVAC & Refrigeration Full Access Bundle I would not have made it.I analyzed other programs that offered support and help online, but I saw Dan's videos on youtube and I was convinced because of the clear and effective way to explain the problems and I did not regret it.The program has more than 300 exercises that are explained step by step by Dan who is an excellent teacher and guide. Therefore the program helps you to improve your knowledge, build confidence and prepares you for the exam.To those who are still looking for a program on the internet to help you prepare for the PE exams, I recommend 100% the programs that Dan Molloy has, they are a success and you will not regret it!

Dan provides exceptional content that was instrumental in helping me study and build a solid foundation in many PE topics. His resources were invaluable, I couldn’t have done it without them.

The content, videos, archived Q&A, and live Q&A were all helpful. I took two of the paper versions of the test using one study program and failed both times. I tried another study program and failed the next two computer based tests. I stumbled upon Mech PE Prep by accident (thankfully) and passed on my 5th time. If this program helped me finally pass the exam it can help anyone. I never thought I would pass it, I just wish I would have found this program sooner.

It was a well-designed course. The main practice problems in each module were slightly challenging than what came on the exam, but they were helpful in revising the concepts and making you ready for worst case scenario. Practice exam given by Dan was also really helpful and was much closer to the real exam in difficulty level. All in all, I really enjoyed Dan's course. Being able to communicate with him in office hours if I had any issues while solving different problems was a huge bonus.

Passed PE with Dan Molloy- Full Bundle. Definitely better than Engineering Pro Guides (too generic) and PPI (too complex)- failed using those courses. I need a better teacher and program. This course is way better structured, more interpersonal, more in-depth, and specifically dedicated to HVAC PE versus the other programs. It’s not only allowing you to be pass the exam but to develop better habits.

This course was super helpful in my studying for the PE exam. Dan provides you with loads of practice problems with detailed video solutions and he's very easy to contact with any questions including his biweekly office hours. I went into studying needing some structure and a game plan, and this course was exactly what I needed

I used the PPI2Pass previously and it did not work for me, so I tried Dan's program. I had the knowledge and understanding, but my biggest hurdles were test-taking confidence and time management. I contribute my passing success to Dan's explanations and how far into the details he went regarding the concepts and especially his mental approach to each problem.Plus, his model of paying once and using the resource material for as long as it takes really took the pressure off. Don't waste your money on the other programs. Dan Molloy really has an amazing program!

I cannot speak highly enough for the quality of instruction and value provided in the Mechanical PE Exam Prep. My experience as a mechanical engineer is primarily as a project manager, meaning I have little experience with hands-on design or the need to engineer anything. This gap in knowledge was made extremely obvious once I started studying for the exam. Fortunately, Dan's instruction and step-by-step tutorials/videos helped me fill these gaps and successfully pass the exam.Another huge benefit is lifetime access. During the middle of my prep, my family suffered a tragic loss, and I was forced to take a few months off from studying. Fortunately, I was able to dig back in once I was ready.

This was a super helpful program to help me pass the HVAC PE. I studied for about 4 months, the month and a half leading up to the exam I really turned up the heat.I went through all of the practice problems and then took practice test. Reworked the practice in the sections I didn’t do to hot on the practice exam. Took the NCEES exam and then the second practice exam.I only used this and the and one of the NCEES practice tests and felt pretty good coming out of the exam. I passed the exam on the first try.The only con I have for the program was I wish there was data after the practice exams. For example on my first practice exam I got like a 52% I wish there would have been a clear breakdown of how I did per type of question. However, that is pretty minimal gripe.Where this course really shines is getting you able to navigate the reference manual. That is probably the most important part when taking the PE. If the PE is required for you job, this is a solid course for getting you ready.

There is simply not a better exam prep option out there. I took the HVAC and Refrigeration exam and passed it on the first try, with confidence, thanks to Dan's course. There are two things I find especially unique about the way Dan's course prepares you better than others. First, Dan has incredibly detailed, written out, and narrated solution to all of his problems. He explains them like a human being, and gives you real world examples of how to think about concepts. This video narration also makes it easy to start a solution, get a hint, then pause it and solve the problem on your own. This technique was incredibly useful to me. Second, Dan makes himself available as if he's your actual professor! I shared numerous email back-and-forth with Dan where he answered all my questions and gave great advice. His office hours are crucial as well. There's nothing worse than getting stuck on a problem outside of Dan's course and not knowing where to look for an explanation of why it isn't making sense to you.I can't recommend this course enough for anyone trying to pass the exam!

Dan’s course offers a great variety of exam-like as well as challenging practice questions, with in depth solution videos without skipping any steps. Completing this course prepares you to answer exam problems with ease like muscle memory. This course was instrumental to my success in passing on the first attempt.

Great program that is highly digestible. Dan is truly an amazing instructor, he breaks down complicated concepts in organized by test specification topics videos. I found solving the practice problems on my own and then going back to watch his solutions videos the most useful. If I was unclear on something, having access to Dan through the office hours added a lot of value beyond just "getting the right answer". The full access package was well worth the value.

Dan's program not only provided me the tools to study efficienty and pass the test on the first try, it also gave me invaluable insights on how to practice as a professional engineer. His teaching style is better than most of my previous college professors. His reasoning is clear, concise, and practical. The program interface is easy to use and navigate. I am very glad I underwent the study process with Dan, and recommend other prospective PE candidates do the same.

This Exam prep course was a key resource for my success passing the PE exam in the first try. The way Dan explain everything is easy to understand and to relate, which helps you to remember it every time you encounter a similar situation. Another amazing resource is his companionship during the process with his one-on-one sessions and the office hours. Those two resources where also very important for me. I really recommend you to take this course if you are taking either Thermo-Fluids or HVAC Mechanical exams…it is worth every penny.

Great course layout that is focused on passing the PE which is question-heavy. I liked this methodology as the more you solve, the easier it gets.• There are great solutions that allowed me to learn exactly how to attack and solve the questions.• I went through the entire course and answered all the section questions.• It took me about 4 months to cover all the material while working and raising a family.• Each person can tailor this, but I would spend about 1-3 hours chipping away at problem sets a night and longer study sessions on the weekends.

When looking for a way to prep for the PE exam for HVAC and refrigeration, I was looking for quality course that worked with my busy schedule and would help me to relearn all the content I needed to pass. I found that with Dan Molloy's full bundle and thanks to this course I passed the exam on the first attempt. Not only did Dan's course help me to navigate the exam (test taking tips, using the reference manual, healthy study habit tips, etc.), but it also helped me to truly understand the content in a way I will carry forward in my career. I highly recommend this course.

I got Dan's full access bundle for HVAC & Refrigeration. Being busy at work and not finding enough time to concentrate on the PE test, Dan's course helped me cross the line with ease. I loved the daily insights as they serve as a good refresher on the basics and also to understand newer concepts better. All the video solutions, office hours, and one-on-one sessions are definitely worth every penny. Good luck with your test and preparation!

Following Dan’s advice, once I finished the bundle, I took the NCEES practice exam.I did the work and followed Dan’s advice and PASSED!I would highly recommend this study material. TRUST DAN!

Dan’s Thermal & Fluids Systems full access bundle was the main reason why I passed the PE. Dan is a great teacher and guides you through problems without skipping steps or combining unit conversions. The main selling point is the lifetime access to the material (Fundamental review, practice problems, daily insights, and office hours) no other course comes close to this offer. Anytime you need a refresher after you pass you can always jump online and review! The course is worth the investment, and I would recommend it to anyone who is pursuing the PE exam. Thank you again Dan for helping me achieve my goal!

I used the HVAC Full Access Bundle to study for my PE exam in 2023, which I passed on the first attempt. I already knew how to study, but I didn't know what to study or where to get started. The program walked me through everything that I needed to learn for the exam. I definitely had to put in the hours to study, but I don't think I could have done this on my own. Dan was also very responsive with any questions that I had regarding the exam material, exam process, and the best way to use the Full Access Bundle.

This course is excellent. Pursuing a PE some 20 years after graduating, I passed my PE exam on the first try. The material in the course was clear, detailed, and sufficient. I highly recommend Dan's course, certainly over PPI and other courses I considered. He's an excellent teacher and very accessible for those more tenacious problems. Note I still found surprises on the exam, but the goal was to pass it, and the goal was achieved. Consider purchasing NCEES practice tests if you have time and want more confidence.

Thanks to Dan Malloy for this course and for the personal interaction which helped me decide how to approach the study and preparation for the exam. I know that it would have taken at least 4 or 5 times longer to study the material if I had done this on my own, which would have probably discouraged me from pursuing it. I also feel like I know the material in and out, not just barely enough to scrape by. The way the problems are laid out and real-world solutions are incorporated work really well. It not only refreshed the information (from 18 years ago for me) but also introduced the multiple rules-of-thumb and industry practices that are required to pass the exam and perform the work more effectively on the job. I highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to pursue their license.

I recently took and passed first time the PE exam in HVAC & Refrigeration I used Dan Molloy's PE Exam prep course as an integral part of my early preparation. I found the course to be extremely beneficial particularly in the areas of fluids, and energy mass balance, and in general for refreshing my knowledge of the fundamentals which are an important aspect of taking the PE exam. I would recommend anyone intending to take the PE exam they take Dan Molloy's PE Exam Prep course as part of their preparation.

This full access HVAC and Refrigeration bundle is worth every penny. I had no idea where to begin and once I found this program it helped with organizing study topics and a study timeline.

100% the best review course around. This is the best way to use your time and money. Dan teaches you exactly what you need to know. He provides great problems that range from simple concepts, to deep-dive/real-world, engineering. This is the best way to use your time and resources - especially if you have a family!! I never thought I'd be the guy that could pass this exam on the first try but here I am with a "Passed" exam and it is all due to this course. Do the work. Do the problems. Take the time to do this and you will not be disappointed. You can pass your PE exam and Dan will help make sure of it!

If you are looking to pass the Mechanical PE: HVAC and Refrigeration Exam, take this class. By the time you are done going through all the practice problems that Dan has taken the time to systematically break down in his videos you will be more than prepared to take the exam.When I started my studying journey, I had taken a PPI PE Exam Prep class and at the end of that class I did not feel prepared at all. I took the exam and failed my first attempt. When I started to study for my second attempt, I had stumbled across one of Dan’s videos on YouTube and realized he offered a full prep course. I signed up for Dan’s Prep course, worked the problems and at the end of his course I felt prepared to tackle the exam again and it worked, I passed the PE Exam!

I passed my PE exam on the very first try with just under 2 months of preparation. I don't know to express my gratefulness to Dan and his Program. But I must say, This program made me confident during the real exam, The real exam felt like just another easier version of practice exam from Dan's Module.Even if you don't have enough experience but want to pass easily. Just buy the full HVAC Module from Dan. Do the problems couple of times and pass the exam like a king! This program is soooo good and well organized that it will prepare anyone to solve any problems. And Dan is very helpful and supportive. I really owe him bigtime. Thanks Dan.
I've been out of school for 20+ years and this course gave me the information and inspiration I needed to pass the HVAC exam on the first try.

THE BEST COURSE ON THE MARKET FOR THE PE MECHANICAL EXAM!!!!Dan Molloy, PE, only demands 100 hours of your dedication for his course. His lectures are fragmented into small topics covered and taught in short 3 - 6 min digestible videos. There is literally NOTHING overwhelming about this course. This course is properly designed for working professionals with limited preparation time and is perfectly calibrated to help you pass your PE exam.What makes Dan's stand out from the other courses on the Market?1. Dan is an educator and a working professional (PE), who has combined his excellent communication and teaching skills with his experience and designed the course.2. Dan has bi-weekly study hours - so you can bring up your concerns, queries, and questions during this meeting.3. Dan is also available to schedule a private study session if you face difficulty with any topic. (Personally speaking, he teaches the concepts so clearly and in an articulate manner that you would hardly feel the need to reach out to him for concept-related queries).Finally, if everything I said above does not convince you to subscribe to his course, then his student success rate definitely should. His student success rate objectively reflects why this course stands out from the rest!

Great course!! I only reviewed the content of the course. The way that Dan explains all the content in the prep material is very simple and thorough. When I was done with the prep videos, I started the practice problems (offered as part of the course) and watched the solutions afterwards. When done with that, I was pretty ready to take the exam so I took the two practice exams (offered as part of course) and scheduled my PE exam soon after that. It is a time saver to take this course and go over the content that are most probable to be in the actual exam rather than trying to study on your own. The course will provide you detailed plan and roadmap and it is very easy to follow and pass the exam. I would definitely recommend the course to all my fellow mechanical engineer who like to take the PE exam and pass.

Can't overstate the value of Mechanical PE Exam Prep. I purchased the full study bundle for HVAC&R and so glad I did. I spent about 150 hours across three months studying and passed the PE exam on the first attempt. For what it's worth, the study materials had me so well prepared that I was able to complete the actual exam with about two hours to spare, even after having reviewed a few problems that challenged me. The materials are so clear, very aligned with the actual exam content, and Dan even offers his individualized attention to you as needed, which you won't find anywhere else. The best part of it is that I genuinely learned a lot throughout the study process. It was not like cramming for an exam in college where the knowledge is lost right after the exam. Dan takes his time in explaining underlying concepts to give you a great fundamental understanding of everything rather than just showing you how to go through the motions. Highly recommend for anyone looking for exam prep materials!

The HVAC full access bundle is a one stop shop for success. Dan does an excellent job making the learning processes accessible to everyone no matter the starting point. He caters each module to ramp in difficulty so by the end you are solving harder problems than what would be on the exam. This not only stretches your knowledge base beyond the minimum but gives an amazing amount of confidence on exam day.Dan’s natural teaching ability paired with his bi-weekly office hours and general accessibility are a perfect match to quell any confusion during the studying process. He is great at rephrasing problems in a myriad of ways so it is relatable and understandable. The overall process finds a good balance between structure and freedom as Dan understands studying is not a full time job. I can’t recommend this program enough, I was able to pass my PE exam on the first try thanks to Dan.

The day of the exam I felt fully prepared and even had time to review every single question during the second half of the exam. I will be forever grateful to Dan for putting this program together. I recommend this program to anyone trying to take their PE.I started studying mid-January and took my test mid-April.

Dan's study material is by far the best approach I've seen to passing the Mechanical PE. I had bought the Mechanical Engineering Reference Manual and although it was a very good study guide, there was a lot of information that you had to read and it took some time to sift through what was applicable. Mechanical PE Exam Prep's videos were concise and to the point, yet informative and detailed enough to get the main ideas across. Hands down, one of the most helpful tools that allowed me to pass on the first try and would recommend this highly to anyone taking the mechanical PE.

Highly recommend. I passed the PE my first try and left the testing center feeling like I'd aced it. Dan's course was so efficient at getting me prepared. I went from panicking to feeling ready to tackle a practice exam within 4 weeks. This course, paired with a few practice exams from NCEES and EngProGuides, will get you to where you need to be.

Dan's course bundle really took the guesswork out of what you need to study in order to be successful for this exam. I would recommend to anyone who is interested in obtaining a PE to take this course

I am so pleased to have passed my P.E. exam and have this chapter of my left behind me. The Mechanical PE Exam Prep content is so well curated and thoughtfully put together. Dan has done an exceptional job at providing a stress free learning experience with full transparent problem solving techniques and explanations. I recommended this prep course information to my department director for our future P.E. candidates. Preparing to pass the exam while working full time was only made possible because of I found Dan's prep course. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and insight.

It was great! I think this course was just the right amount of difficulty and complexity to easily follow, keep yourself accountable, and get the results you need. I was not feeling confident before joining the course, but I had a plan laid out when I joined and talked to Dan about it. He agreed on my plan and I set on forward to PRACTICE and CONSISTENCY throughout my plan. Overall it took me 11 - 12 weeks from when I joined to when I took the exam. I prepared well by doing the problems, reviewing the videos after getting stuck on a problem for longer than 15 minutes, then flagging those problems I got stuck. I would move on to the next section and repeat the same strategy. At the end, I allowed myself 4 weeks to review all the flagged questions from all sections, take 2 practice exams, then reviewed the flagged questions for those exams. At last, I took the NCEES practice exams and felt confident. The day of the exam I finished 1.5 hours earlier (after reviewing all questions twice) because I was doing the problems in "automatic" mode because they came as second nature. Dan's material and strategy, along with my practice and consistency, played a vital role in passing the exam WITHOUT stressing during the exam. I felt confident, I knew what I was doing, I knew where to find the information in the handbook, and I knew how to answer the questions or engineer my way to answer the questions correctly.Best course out there to pass the PE Exam!!!

I could not have passed the exam without this course. I took the PE exam before taking this course and did not pass. I signed up for this course 45 days before taking the exam the second time and passed. I highly recommend this course to anyone studying to take the exam.

I paid for the full HVAC+R bundle and I am very satisficed with the course. I completed the entire course and I passed the exam on the first try. In addition to providing plenty of questions and lessons to prepare you for the exam, Dan (the instructor/creator) was very helpful in responding to questions and concerns.

This is a fantastic program and worthwhile to sign-up for if you are serious about passing the PE exam. I appreciate how personable and attentive Dan is and the explanations of the concepts are likely the best around. Being I studied civil engineering in university, I needed a robust course to learn all the concepts. Dan's program definitely gives you the tools to perform your best on the exam.

Mechanical PE Prep with Dan Molloy has been a phenomenal tool for studying for the PE.Before attempting my first test, I subscribed to another top website to study for the PE and found that it took up a lot of time with buffer material, live video streams that were all over the place, wrong answers in the slide decks used for presentations, wrong answers in practice quizzes etc. Also when it came to using the NCEES practice test, I couldn’t fully understand how they arrived at the solutions that were provided in the back of the exam booklet.Dan Molloy’s approach of breaking down the information to a simple way to understand it quickly, providing modern tools; such as. YouTube to provide great teaching content, providing multiple approaches to teaching (watching videos, using practice test, having bi-weekly live answer sessions, providing monthly one-on-one discussions, providing daily quick tips, providing equation sheets etc.) has helped to study this material concisely, in a decently short period of time. A lot of Dan’s content is also downloadable, so you can study while you are on a trip with no internet access, unlike other study websites that require internet access. Dan also provides videos, where he breaks down the answers to the NCEES test booklet to where you understand it.Mechanical PE Prep greatly helped me to feel confident and to pass the Mechanical PE test. Thank you Dan!

If you are looking to pass the PE test and become a better engineer, you should definitely consider this program.I recently passed (on the first try) the PE Exam: HVAC and Refrigeration. I believe a lot of my success came from going through Dan’s course. If you’re anything like me, when I committed to taking the PE Test, I was overwhelmed with the thought of studying. I didn’t know what material I should study, and I certainly didn’t know where to start. I was discouraged by other study programs when I came to realize they were heavily textbook / academia focused, and did not have a great structure for solving practice problems. Dan is very personable, and will work with you one-on-one to make sure you are successful. This is a huge advantage over other programs where you don't get as much one-on-one time with your instructor.Dans course conveniently organizes the exam subjects into easy to follow modules. He starts off with a review of the fundamentals, essentially reviewing/teaching subjects that actually matter for the test and in real life applications. After covering the fundamentals, the program takes you through each subject and focuses on solving many practice problems. Each problem has some type of twist that focuses on the many variations the test could throw at you. The video solutions are incredibly helpful to unpack each step, and the office hours are super beneficial when something just is not clicking. Side note - Take notes when studying and use it as a "cheat sheet" of things you need to further review, memorize, ect... this will save you lots of time the last few weeks of your studying.My study plan consisted of 4.5 months of studying 1-2 hours each day, including weekends. Sure, I missed some days, but ultimately I did not cram material into a weekend project. I took it slow and trusted the process. I went into exam day confident and relaxed, and I left the exam feeling confident and relaxed.So… If you are willing to put in the time and effort to prepare for this exam, I have no doubt in my mind you can and will pass on the first try! Or, If you are here because this is your second or third try, Dans course will help you unpack your sticking points, and get you on the right track. By the end of the course you will have worked on hundreds of practice problems, which is key to your success. It’s not enough to just watch videos or skim through a solution book and hope you will remember the process. I promise, your hard work will pay off! Best of Luck to you

Dan's Mechanical PE Exam Prep was extremely helpful on my journey to become a PE. The questions were pointed, and the videos working the problems explained which equations to use, but moreover, explained the science in a relatable way. This was helpful for retention and improving critical thinking skills that undoubtedly were beneficial for the exam. In addition to the materials, Dan also hosts monthly check in meetings to discuss progress, amping up the accountability factor. The best part of this program definitely is the office hours though. Any questions you have, Dan tackles and provides his own spin on thought processes, again driving up those critical thinking skills.TLDR; if you are thinking about purchasing the Mechanical PE Exam Prep materials, DO it. You won't regret it.

This class helped me pass the PE on my first try. I can not recommend the class enough. This class thoroughly prepared me for the test and I am glad I took it. With the amount of practice problems and videos, Dan Malloy sets you up for success. Also, I really appreciated Dan's turn around time on questions. His office hours set up is outstanding.

I just recently passed my PE exam using Dan's Mechanical PE Exam Prep. I am not a design engineer and do not typically work with most of the material on the exam. I first tried a more corporate course and I can't say I got a lot of out it. I saw Dan's videos on youtube and reached out to him and that was the best decision I made. His course is great for someone like me that lacked the day to day experience. There is a lot of example problems that are specific to the exam. I didn't just learn the math but more importantly the concept on how to use the refrigation charts, phsyc charts, heat loss equations, bernoulli's equation, and much more. I would send emails asking questions on practice problems and his responses were quick and thorough. I would highly recommend this course. I don't believe I would have passed the exam without his help.

If you want to pass the Mechanical PE: HVAC and Refrigeration Exam, the Full Access Bundle from Mechanical PE Exam Prep is all you need. Dan provides all of the guidance necessary to tackle this daunting task; from setting aside the proper amount of time and getting in the right mindset to great practice problems and amazing step-by-step solutions videos.I first purchased content from a very popular Exam Prep website and found that after I was done with the core content the practice problems became daunting and, frankly, demoralizing. After months of studying, I felt stuck. I began looking around at other resources and ended up reaching out to Dan because his program looked much more personal and the previews of his content gave me hope that it would help me. Not only was he super responsive and kind, but he helped me get out of my rut and into some practice problems that were adequately challenging without being overly complex and discouraging.With a good amount of determination, I managed to grind through his entire practice problems book in my final 2 weeks of studying. The best part, I passed my exam on the first try!I hope that this story encourages people to learn with Dan Molloy because I highly recommend his program to anyone looking to pass this exam. He will save you immense time, you will learn a ton, and he will be there to encourage you if you need it.To all the aspiring Mechanical PE Examinees, good luck!

This is a great course. It's well thought out. I like the way Dan Molloy teaches. I'm not the brightest student, so I allowed myself the time to go through the complete course a couple times. I felt well prepared, the PE exam was very similar to the practice exam in this course, and I passed on my first attempt. Highly recommend!
