Formulas - Memorize or Provided?

Formulas - Memorize or Provided?

Postby ks_castillo » Thu Mar 23, 2017 1:48 pm

Hi all,

I take my first 5.0 exam on April 23 and in reading Ballast have come across a ton of formulas. Are we required to memorize these formulas or will these be provided during the exam? I'm trying to figure out how much time I need to dedicate to memorize these, if needed.

Thank you!

Look at the end of the 5.0 Handbook published by NCARB, it will give you the list of referenced formulas. Also, check out the 5.0 demo exam and get used to the format. The demo exam is just like the actual exam, with the same reference materials and formulas. I have taken both PPD and PDD and did not memorize any formulas. Having said that, however, I do believe I needed one formula for my PDD test that wasn't provided, however, I may have done the question wrong. It was only one question though, I wouldn't waste your time memorizing unnecessary formulas.
