CSI MasterFormat

[Billygoatte02]

Which form of the MasterFormat specs is relevant for these exams? I ask because most of the study materials being passed around have the 5 digit spec numbers rather than 6 digit. In a handful of practice exams the questions have asked using the 5 digit but I've also read about the 6 digit is some of the study material. The other difference is even more troublesome because certain materials have moved location and the divisions are completely renumbered. Instead of 16 divisions there's something like 35. Either way, I'm just moving on to other material right now but I'd really love some clarity on this one so I can review the proper material before my exam next week.

Or the one that looks like this: from 1995 http://www.archtoolbox.com/representati ... sions.html

Does it even matter?

It matters in educating yourself correctly. All exam study guides now use the new format. Some offices still use the old format, some do not.
