However, that information is far less detailed than what is needed to know for the AP specialty exam. You don't need to get the BD+C reference guide to study for the LEED GA exam, however it wouldn't hurt to find one if you can and see what it looks like and how it related to the GA exam. There will not be any specific questions on specific credits names for NC, School & CS - however there may be questions about basic green building strategies that are used for NC, School & CS. Hope this helps! Hey Stephen, there is information about each rating system that is required to know for the exam.

I agree with you that practice exams in the last few days are critical, because it is all about how to use the information that has been memorized in the weeks of reading the RG. I have been taking practice exams from the websites Leedexcel.com and GEP. Any others that I am missing? Tam Pat,

You spent and spending a lot of time to maintain this site. Appreciate your progressive LEADership. Thank you on behalf all LEED'ers. Any plans to include materials for LEED-AP Canada exams? Hope you are working on LEED projects now. Cheers Vall Pat

The first try I did not utilize intheleed.com (big mistake). The second time around I reviewed each section using intheleed.com while also having my reference guide opened to the corresponding section just for any extra details added by either resource. There are many critical points mentioned and highlighted on intheleed.com that are difficult to find in the reference manual. This study technique, in combination with a few practice tests, helped me pass the second time with flying colors! Pat, you are doing a great thing with this site. Many thanks for your help and I hope others are able to take advantage of your hard work. I will recommend this site to everyone I know studying!!

For one, I can only fit so much space onto the page for each credit, so please feel free to use the back of the sheet if it's blank. Also, I would try to fit or at least shorthand all the information you need to know into the spaces. That way, your brain will have less to memorize, in a sense. You're on the right track...keep on studying, and good luck to you! Hey Rob,

I am just starting your LEED AP walkthrough Exercise 2, where you write down the Intention & Implementation for the various Credits, SSP1.

There is nowhere near the room to handwrite all the narrative. I am doing something wrong?

I was scheduled to take the test this Friday but I rescheduled yesterday after finding this wonderful website. I found there was much more to learn, and you have answered many of my questions. BTW, regarding brain dump. A friend of mine went into the test planning to use the first 15 minutes to write down the entire LEED scorecard he'd memorized. He was given a magic marker and a dry erase board for his figuring. No room of course for all he wanted to note. That would have done me in!

Good luck!!! You have worked hard on this site and it is evident. With that said, I feel that you will do great! Let us know how it goes! Your schedule seems good. The only thing I probably would do different is day 4. I personally would probably study for a good portion of the day (it's just me...it's my feel good measure...I guess) watch a good movie that I've missed because of studying :) and get a good night sleep. Best of luck! Pat,
