What's up with the right-hand exterior foundation and footing not aligning with the wall above? Is that what you're referencing?

The actual exam has more interior rated walls than 3.1/4.0 practice exams. :shock:
Tips: Check the plan carefully! L1 and L2 rated wall don't always line up!

Just received a PASS on my 1st CDS attempt!

Materials:
Schiff Hardin Lecture!!!! (Very valuable source to me! I listen to all the lectures once and A 201 & B101 2-3 times...few days before the exam I brainwashed myself with the audio at 1.5X speed during work :lol: )
All AIA documents recommend on the NCARB guide (Use commentary version for A201 & B201)
Kaplan (didn't finish last 2 chapters tho...)
AIA Code of Ethics & Professional Conduct (there were questions from here)
Caroline notes
Try to answer questions on this forum/Google+ ARE 4.0 community
Memorized MasterFormat Divisions on the test day :lol:

I only tried sample questions on the NCARB Guide... based on the questions from this forum/Google+ ARE 4.0 community, many 3rd party CDS practice questions seem poorly written, so I rather spent time on the AIA document texts :roll:


I didn't read AHPP. I only flipped it when I tried to look up an answer from this forum/Google+ ARE 4.0 community.
I will definitely read it for the PPP exam! 3 weeks to go!

On the exam, there were 1-2 building technology questions (e.g. mortar joint profile).
I took BDCS with a pass on January so it's a bonus point for me :lol:
