LEED AP exams require different studying approaches.

Alex reports that the newLEED v4 Green Associate
exam is Tricky…
…but new LEED v4 APBD+C exam is TOUGH.
![Page 8: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Plan to spend at least 30-40% more time studying &
memorizing for the LEED AP v4 exam than you did for the
LEED Green Associate exam.
![Page 9: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
And the new LEED v4 AP BD+C exams are DIFFERENT from the LEED 2009 exams…
1. More Detail2. More Calculations 3. LEED Project Experience
![Page 10: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
1. More Detail
While the LEED Green Associate exam tests you holistically, with questions that come from multiple
sources...
The LEED AP v4 exams have much more detail and cover new credits and information… and all of the LEED AP v4
questions come from one document.
![Page 11: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
100% of the questions on the LEED AP v4 exam come from the Reference Guide
![Page 12: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Problem is…
…The Reference Guides are not designed to be
study tools.
The BD+C Reference Guide
is 800+ page long!
![Page 13: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The questions on the LEED AP v4 exam come from 13 or so sections including...
Intents, Requirements, Potential Technologies and Strategies, Referenced Standards, Implementation, Calculations, Exemplary Performance, Definitions, Changes from LEED 2009, etc.
The LEED BD+C Reference Guide is comprised of multiple rating systems, but LEED for New Construction is the predominant focus…

HINT!Your best strategy is to
use focused study materials
... Not ones that cover
everything about LEED and green
building.

2. More Calculations
Difficult calculations are common on the LEED AP v4 exams…
Questions you may encounter include not only addition and subtraction, but also more complex questions
calculating densities per acre, FAR, flush/flow rates, SRI, flushout requirements, green power, carbon offsets, etc.
![Page 16: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Speed matters!The LEED AP v4 exam calculations may eat up
your exam time… You only have 2 hours.
Run your practice tests with a clock.

HINT!Your best strategy is to seek out the
“best” answer, instead of getting stuck looking for
the “correct” answer.

3. Project Experience
The LEED v4 exams attempt to gauge LEED project experience from within the exam itself.
Don’t underestimate the value of having worked on a LEED project.
![Page 20: Free LEED AP v4 Study Guide with Alex Spilger](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062401/58f9af4f760da3da068babd3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
“Exposure to the LEED project credit calculations familiarized me with the
process and helped me with the more difficult exam calculation questions.”
We’ve heard the following feedback fromLEED Project Experience attendees again and again…
