We hope these flexible payment options are helpful. Let us help you get on the path to passing the PE Exam!

“With better than competitive prices, effective teaching ability, and proven results, Dr. Tom’s Classroom is undeniably the best value in Mechanical Engineering PE exam preparation. His no-nonsense approach, coupled with a wide-ranging experience and clear explanations, validated my pick and was undoubtedly a key factor leading to my passing score on the exam. Thanks Dr. Tom!”
– Andrew Lipetzky, PE, Duke Energy, New Hill, NC

“Just finished the intro and it was great! I was skeptical about subscribing to anything and was planning on tackling it solo, but I’m certainly going to subscribe to Dr. Tom’s now.” – New DTC Participant

“Why choose Dr. Tom over the other courses available? 1. He is clear and easy to understand (My colleagues who took other PE review courses complained that they couldn’t understand their professors). 2. Concise study plan (The goal is to pass the test, not re-learn all of your college courses). 3. Cost (Compare it to other courses out there like I did. I think you will be glad you saved several hundred dollars and got a better review course).”
– Evan Tinker, PE, Argus Consulting Inc., Overland Park, KS

The Dr. Tom Method & Strategy

Dr. Tom, as he is affectionately known, teaches the course overview lessons for Civil Engineering, outlining the Dr. Tom Method and Exam Strategy on which all DTC Reviews are based. Tom originally developed the 20-Week review format for the Mechanical PE Exams, and then, with the DTC Civil Instructors, he created the Civil PE Exam Review.

Hello, I’m Tom Brown, and I based my online 20-Week Mechanical Engineering PE Exam Review on my many years of experience preparing mechanical engineers for the PE Exam. With the help of my DTC team, I developed the tried and true structure and method that we offer online today. Our Civil and Mechanical courses will provide you will a step by step path to being successful on the exam. It requires a tremendous time commitment and effort on your part, but if you follow the plan that we have laid out for you, you will have everything you need to succeed.” – Tom Tom received his Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering from Georgia Tech in 1970. He earned a Masters Degree in Engineering Mechanics from Georgia Tech in 1973. Dr. Tom holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, earned at NC State. Today, Dr. Tom is the founder and driving force behind Dr. Tom’s Classroom where he pursues his passion of teaching engineers how to prepare for and pass the PE exam.
