I tested yesterday and am very disappointed with the topics covered and the bank of questions that turned up on my particular exam. I had one electrical question, one plumbing question, and almost no HVAC. The rest of the questions dealt with seismic and thermal. Had quite a few structural questions. It was HELL. Although I don't have my score yet, I fully expect to retake the test in 60 days. I studied Amber Seminar videos for BDCS and BS, read Ballast for BS, and watched a few of the Thaddeus videos. I also skimmed through MEEB and Building Construction Illustrated. For the next round I plan to stick to NCARB's recommended reading and will definitely be reviewing Fema's seismic reading. Booooooo.
