I'm trying to decide which to start with. Predesign or CDS? I've taken all three graphics sections already.

| I concur. This is the order I've taken them so far, and it seems to have served me well. PD is Saturday for me!! I'm cramming this week.

| cd and then pd... mm is in a totally different realm... pd has a lot of cd questions in it-- i found this out the hard way by not passing it the first time... after i took cd and got my pass notice, i immediately took the pd again and passed it... memorize those aia contracts and documents!

cd i studied aia docs (highlighted them and made outlines of them), flashcards, and kaplan books but found the aia docs and flashcards most useful
pd i studied the flashcards and books but have always felt a lot of the questions were cd related
mm i took so long ago i can't even remember what i studied... usual stuff, i suspect, such as flashcards and books
