A lot of engineers would recommend that you use the review manual. For example, I used it when preparing for my FE exam; it did help me in some ways, like exposing myself to different types of problems.
But after talking to thousands of students, many find it intimidating, overwhelming, and irrelevant to the FE exam. I spoke to Shrayva last year, and she says it’s not up-to-date, too tough, and not user-friendly. It ultimately led to losing confidence in being able to pass the FE exam.
What I usually recommend to students is that if you want to use the review manual, go ahead and try it. If you’re learning and making progress, great, but if you’re not, don’t keep using it. Because it will keep you stuck. That’s the mistake many students make; just cause it worked for someone else doesn’t mean it will work for you. We all learn differently.
