Just took PDD and will update this post later when I receive my score. Initial reactions, I think less that 50% chance I passed, but oh well I'll stay positive!
*I noticed a lot of missing information in my case studies. Sections of the IBC I needed were not there. And some formulas for questions in the MC was missing too. Disappointed in that for sure.
Update: Well It's 2am, I hit refresh, and BOOM, PASS. wow. I am done with the AREs thank all the higher powers.
PDD was pretty tough, definitely the toughest ARE for me.
Verrrry broad topics from SS, BS, BDCS, and CDS. I had maybe 5 structural questions, the majority were construction document level questions. There was so many graphic questions, plug and play, drag, and hotspot.
Also like many people have noted, quite a few calculations, which are just time consuming and not too complicated.
Overall, from one question to the next I had no idea what to expect on PDD.
Good luck
