Starting on December 1, 2011, GBCI began to draw LEED Green Associate Examquestions from the second edition of Green Building and LEED Core ConceptsGuide . We have incorporated thislatest information in our book, and changed our book title to LEED GreenAssociate Exam Guide. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is one of the most important trends of development and is revolutionizing the construction industry. It has gained tremendous momentum and has a profound impact on our environment. From this book, you will learn how to: 1. Pass the LEED Green Associate Exam. 2. Use LEED exam preparation strategies, study methods, tips, suggestions, mnemonics, and exam tactics to improve your exam performance. 3. Effectively understand, digest, and retain your LEED knowledge. 4. Understand the process of registering and certifying a building for LEED. 5. Understand the scope, main intent, core concepts and strategies, as well as identify the regulations, recognition, and incentives for each major LEED category. 6. Identify the strategies for case studies. 7. Identify the synergy in case studies. 8. Implement the most important LEED related codes and building standards. 9. Get points for categories not yet clearly defined by the USGBC. This book fills in the blanks and demystifies LEED. It uncovers the secrets, codes, and jargon for LEED as well as the true meaning of "going green." It provides a solid foundation and fundamental framework for LEED. It covers every major aspect of LEED in plain and concise language, and introduces it to ordinary people. This guide is small and easy to carry around.

What others are saying about "LEED Green Associate Exam Guide"... (Part I) "Finally! A comprehensive study tool for LEED Green Associate Prep! "I took the 1-day Green LEED Green Associate course and walked away with a power point binder printed in very small print-which was missing MUCH of the required information (although I didn't know it at the time). I studied my little heart out and took the test, only to fail it by 1 point. Turns out I did NOT study all the material I needed to in order to pass the test. I found this book, read it, marked it up, retook the test, and passed it with a 95%. Look, we all know the LEED Green Associate exam is new and the resources for study are VERY limited. This one's the VERY best out there right now. I highly recommend it." -ConsultantVA See all our books at GreenExamEducation .com Check out FREE tips on the easiest way to pass the LEED Green Associate Exam and infofor all LEED Exams andARE Exams at GeeForums.com ,you can post your questions for other users' review. Review: Great Study guide. Will DEFINITELY help you pass the exam! - This review will focus only on the book as far as its ability to help pass the exam (that is the only reason I purchased it). First thing, there are a lot of grammatical errors but I didn't sit for an English test so they didn't bother me. One thing I would say is to check his data against the reference guide. There was one question on the mock exam that I believe is simply wrong and he leaves off a few ways to earn exemplary performance credits (while he always includes which credits can earn exemplary performance, he leaves out some qualifiers). Now to the good part: I took the LEED GA Exam this morning and passed with a score of 190/200. I used this book as my primary study tool. The only other thing I did was to read the Green Associates handbook and I used the LEED 2009 NC Reference Guide to check the information in the book. The book is broken down very well for studying making it much easier to memorize the data. The practice exam will prepare you well. It is much harder than the real exam. There was a lot of information in this book that showed up on the exam that I would not have known had I not read it. My basic study schedule was about one day of reading the non technical chapters, one day devoted to the technical chapter about credits and then the morning of the test to review my highlighted notes. I think if anyone studies this book until they pass the mock exam (I scored about a 70/100) and feel comfortable then they will be over prepared for the actual exam. I have worked as a Mechanical Engineer in the building industry for 6 years now so I do deal with the LEED program very often but this book helped me even with the credits that I have never bothered to learn since they don't apply to my profession. One last thing: I don't know if I just missed it in the book but the exam did have 3 questions on LEED for Homes certification. One was common sense but the other two you needed to know the system. I believe this rating system was completed after this book was published so no fault of the author. Review: Review from someone who took the exam - I used this book along with Gang's supplementary book LEED GA Mock Exams (Red book) and some free practice tests I found online as my primary sources to study for the exam. I'm happy to say that I took the test recently and passed! How did I study? First, I read through the LEED Green Associate Exam Guide twice (an hour or two hours per night) just to get familiar with concepts within a week. Then over the next few days, I read through the book a third time more carefully in order to memorize the numbers, terms, abbreviations, etc. Next, I went through the mock exam included in this book, then the Red book by Gang - LEED GA Mock Exam, and also a couple free practice tests I found online thanks to Google. My confidence dropped when I scored less than 50% on the two exams included in the Red book (while scoring around 60-65% on the others). As a result, the three days prior to my test (which included the weekend), I spent most of my time going through ALL of these practice tests to try and figure out my weaknesses by focusing on my incorrect responses while reviewing the things that need to be memorized. Overall, I probably spent around 30 hours preparing (YMMV). What did I think of the book? It's a lot of information and although I agree with other reviewers that there might be too much information, it is better to over-prepare than under-prepare which is what this book does and is the author's goal. However, I must emphasize that this book does not cover EVERYTHING (the author does not claim that this book does so this is NOT a negative point). I highly suggest that you look at the online links that are referenced in this book as well as in the solution sections of the Red book because if I hadn't, I probably would not have passed. I did not use any other study guides besides what I have already mentioned. Why 4 stars? I have to give a positive review because I passed the exam, but I can't give it 5 stars because there are some flaws. There are several typos and grammatical errors so it's obvious that whoever edited this 3rd edition didn't do a good job. Also, it would be nice if this book, included another mock exam or two, but I guess it's just business to pressure you to buy a separate book. My tips: -Study this Green book along with the websites referenced and take several practice exams. Use the practice test results to help you focus on your weaknesses (questions you get incorrectly). -The Red book is harder than the actual exam (as the author intended it) so it definitely helped to scare me to study a bit harder. I do recommend the Red book as a supplement although it's a bit pricey IMO for two exams. (I'll write a review with more details for this book shortly). -Although I did not use the following resource, some of my peers who passed the exam said this really helped them if you don't mind paying and additional $50 - http://www.gbes.com/store/products/PTLEEDGREENASSOCIATE.html ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #6,166,538 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,748 in Sustainability & Green Design #6,187 in Home Design & Construction (Books) #15,029 in Educational Certification & Development | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 58 Reviews | ## Images ![LEED Green Associate Exam Guide: Comprehensive Study Materials, Sample Questions, Mock Exam, Green Building LEED Certification, and Sustainability, 3rd Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51gslx8uSML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review from someone who took the exam *by J***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 21, 2013* I used this book along with Gang's supplementary book LEED GA Mock Exams (Red book) and some free practice tests I found online as my primary sources to study for the exam.

At this point I was very nervous, but it was too late to postpone or cancel, so I took the test. To my surprise I passed the test with quite a high score.This book's format of concise bullet point, memorization devices and tables was exactly what I needed.If you have trouble with concise bullet point information this is not the book for you.I know that when I take my LEED AP test I will be using GANG CHEN's study guide. ### ⭐⭐⭐ It's ok... *by R***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 4, 2013* This book is useful by default: there is a real dearth of good resources out there to prepare you for the LEED GA exam. This is one of the few/only books that consolidates everything you need to know for the exam in one place.That said, this is not a professionally made book by any means. Stylistic/formatting/grammatical errors galore and mnemonic devices & test-taking "tips" that are awkward and painful to read.In terms of content, there is an overemphasis on memorization of nitpicked details and acronyms, which made certain parts a real chore to get through. But amidst all the noise, the important stuff is there. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/8691774-leed-green-associate-exam-guide-comprehensive-study-materials-sample-questions](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/8691774-leed-green-associate-exam-guide-comprehensive-study-materials-sample-questions) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
