Well, after waiting for 72 days finally got a score and its a fail for both PPD and PDD
Studied for 3months and thought I did well, any suggestions on what else to study (perhaps specifically for Content Area 5)
Here is my score

Content Area 1:Environmental Conditions & Context
10-16% ----○------------●--------------○-------------○----
Content Area 2: Codes & Regulations
16-22% ----○------------●--------------○-------------○----
Content Area 3: Building Systems, Materials, & Assemblies
19-25% ----○------------●--------------○-------------○----
Content Area 4: Project Integration of Program & Systems
32-38% ----○------------○--------------●-------------○----
Content Area 5: Project Costs & Budgeting

Here is what I studied prior to exams
1. ARE 4.0 related material only (I did not study for exams I already taken which is CDS PPP and SPD)
2. Ballast appropriate chapters
3. ARE 3.1 flash cards
4. Thattius lectures
5. ARE Study Review blog questions
5. FEMA buildings at risk
6. Various notes from ARE coach in 4.0 sections
*UPDATE passed both on retakes, scheduled back to back, done with exams!
