Review Time
Apologies for the long review, but I wanted to provide a very detailed account of my experience with the PPI2PASS PE Structural prep course to help others avoid making the same mistake. I enrolled in this course with high hopes, expecting a premium experience given its reputation and price tag. Instead, I found it to be the most expensive prep course out there — and by far the least exhaustive or helpful. I’m writing this to warn other students: do not waste your time or money on this course.1. Rushed, Surface-Level LecturesThe lectures were rushed and lacked depth. The instructor sped through slides, often skipping vital explanations. Key concepts were glossed over or outsourced to vague slide references. For example, we were told to "refer to this table" with no guidance on how to interpret or apply the information. In technical fields like structural engineering, that’s not teaching — it’s lazy and ineffective.2. No Real Practice SupportThere were no targeted practice resources tied to individual lectures. After studying a topic like concrete columns for example, I expected to reinforce the material with practice problems. Instead, I had to generate quizzes from a broad question bank that included totally unrelated topics like masonry and wood structures. Worse, some of the questions in the bank weren’t even covered in the course.3. Major Topics Missing EntirelyOne of the most frustrating aspects of this course was discovering how much essential material was completely left out of the curriculum. As I reviewed my failed exam attempts, it became clear that numerous questions were based on topics the course barely touched—or didn’t mention at all. For instance, structural diaphragms appeared multiple times on the exam, yet were barely acknowledged in the lectures. Beyond that, there is a laundry list of items that showed up on the exam but were never covered in class. These were not obscure or rarely tested topics, but fundamental areas that the exam clearly focused on. The course’s failure to even mention them shows a serious lack of completeness in what is supposed to be a “comprehensive” prep program. It genuinely felt like I was set up to fail.4. High Price, Low ValueThis course charges a premium price, but it offers very little in return. Despite being one of the most expensive prep options available, the content and quality of instruction fall far below expectations. I’ve used less costly resources in the past that provided more thorough coverage, better explanations, and a higher level of support. The fact that this course is marketed as a high-end, comprehensive program while delivering so little value is both disappointing and frustrating. While I can forgive the wasted money, it’s much harder to forgive the amount of time and effort I poured into this course, only to be left underprepared and disillusioned.5. Refused Refund Despite Legitimate IssuesAfter realizing the course didn’t deliver as promised, I reached out for a refund. I provided clear, detailed feedback outlining specific shortcomings, such as the rushed lectures, lack of practice resources, missing critical content, and the failure to adequately prepare me for the exam. Despite presenting these legitimate concerns, my request was flatly denied. The lack of acknowledgment or willingness to address these issues is frustrating, and the refusal to refund despite the course’s many shortcomings only added to my dissatisfaction. It’s one thing for a course to underperform, but to be met with poor customer service and dismissive responses on top of it is completely unacceptable.
I found this course extremely useful in my preparation for the Chemical PE Exam. The instructor is incredibly helpful and explains topics well. I felt prepared going into the exam and like I had a full understanding of the course material. I would recommend the PE Chemical live online course to someone hoping to take and pass their Chemical PE.
I signed up for the PPI Chemical Engineering Live Online Course. I had a positive experience with it. It was a good refresher, and I relearned some of the concepts again. The instructor is informative and knowledgeable and responds in a timely manner on the forum. I would recommend it to people.
The learning program is not for me. School of PE is better for my learning understanding but I wanted to try out PPI. No ill will against their program, it's just not for me. I asked for refund and they will not give me a refund for digital material not used. I used the program over a period of 48 hours, realized it did not work for me, and no refund can be issued even though the receipts and return policy say nothing about 'non-refundable.'
