guys...
Just took ME yesterday.. and starting to look into what I need to do for this Beast! this is my second time taking it... definitly feel alot comfortable than the first time... I made the mistake of taking that as my first exam and failed offcourse... anyway...
I have the student addition of the Architects handbook for professional pratice... is that the same as the regular Book?
and is there like a Master list of things you need to know for this exam? there're so many things you need to know... and I have about 4 weeks of study time...
thanks

I'm also wondering which version of AHPP is best to review? Does the Student Edition vary greatly from the latest edition? And is the 14th Edition (Blue cover) the most recent edition?
Thanks!

I had the full 14th edition to study from. I would suggest using the 13th edition if you can get your hands on a copy. The 14th edition obviously is updated but doesn't correspond to what NCARB is using for the exam. For example the AIA documents have been updated and that is reflected in the 14th edition, but you'll be tested on know the previous documents. I just think it will avoid confusion. Also in going back and forth between different study materials, the 13th edition will be more consistent with ARE 3.1 and discussions on this forum.

well...I don't know which chapters... and to tell you the truth, i didn't find the book to be very helpfull... there's a lot of gibberish in there.... I think I benefitted from reading things related to project delivery .... dispute resolution... office and resource managment... things of that nature...
in any case... the way I look at this exam is that no mater how much i study I'm not gona be prepared enough... some people pass it in one try and other don't ... it's as simple as that...
exam on friday... and I've studied for about 3 weeks... and I don't feel so good about it...anyway good luck to you guys...
