LEED BD+C Exam: Is Doing Calculations Required During the Exam?

 

Share


Nicolas asks: Hi I have some questions about the LEED BD+C exam:
- Do I have to know how many points is each credit worth?
- Do I have to memorize the credit number with the credit name?
- Is it true that we will not have to do calculations, since the exam is multiple choice, only to know what is involved in the calculations formula ?

Answer: Hi Nicolas, thank you for your question.

Please find your answers below:

- Do I have to know how many points is each credit worth? Yes

- Do I have to memorize the credit number with the credit name? No, the test will never refer to the credit number.

- Is it true that we will not have to do calculations, since the exam is multiple choice, only to know what is involved in the calculations formula? Not true, the BD+C exam has challenging questions that not only require you have the credit requirements memorized, but also ask you to perform the calculations.

Good luck!
