I just have to go back to learning how to pass this particular architectural registration exam and prepare with a no-excuse-for-failure attitude. I have some weird confidence that I already have this and shouldn’t be worried. My inner self keeps telling me, “Just cover your weak points and you’ll be ok. You know this. This you got.”
Since all prior results letters for me on this exam have shown the exact same deficient results areas, I know the points I have to cover. Because this is my last exam, I want this to be my last ‘take’ of this exam. So yet I still feel the need to prepare on the subject areas I confidently know.
For this Building Design Construction Systems exam I plan to rely on Edward Allen’s Fundamentals of Building Construction, HOK’s Guidebook for Sustainable Design, Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidlines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, and Reconstructing Historic Buildings, and my Ballast question and answer book and ARE Review Manual. Those along with plenty of vignette practice and any vignette tutorials I can get my hands on. Onwards.
