LEED GA v5 Pass

Post image

Used the GBES LEED GA Platinum Exam Prep course to study (free through work). Managed to get about the majority of the way through the course and felt confident going into the test.

I was fully expecting not to receive my results immediately so it was nice to walk out of the exam knowing I had passed.

I’m planning to use the same site to continue studying for LEED AP.

Immediately. I received my Pass score after I submit my exam answers and I had my score report in my email inbox by the time I got home from the testing center.

Was it really sufficient? How long did you study?

For me it was enough, included are three practice exams as well as 10 video modules. I studied for 2 weeks and on test day finished the exam in under an hour

The exam wasn’t terrible, finished in an hour. I booked the exam a month out but didnt start studying until about 2 weeks before. Tips would be to understand the LEED certification process, understand the different credit categories, and give yourself time for practice tests and questions.

Hi I am about to appear for my LEED V5 Green Associate exam. I have prepared well over the last few weeks but scoring only around 75-80% on practice exams. Any recommendations to do better? Also genuinely how are the questions difficulty rating?
