Tip number two, find your resources. So okay, what do I mean by find your resources? First of all, everybody knows there are lots and lots of guidebooks out there. There are the Balas books, there are the Kaplan books. There are flashcards.

Another obvious resource for you is the A.R.E. Forum. If you haven't been on the A.R.E. Forum yet, you should absolutely go on to the A.R.E. Forum. It is a wealth of information.

There are also lots of online sources. As Mark mentioned at the beginning, Black Spectacles. We've just started what we think is the first one that covers everything. But there are other sources as well, so there's Black Spectacles. There are some structures one. There are a few other elements out there that are worth tracking down.

A key resource that you have also is all the local AIA offices. We're here right now in Chicago at AIA Chicago, and as an example, they have a whole set of guidebooks as resources.

They have the Young Architects Forum. We have the Emerging Professionals. There's a whole series of different resources that you can track down at the local AIA office.

You want to read the Ballast books before you buy those. You want to read the Kaplan books. Come in and check them out. I've been in to many of the AIA offices. I know the BSA has an amazing one in Boston. A lot of resources available. The New York one, the San Francisco, so everyone that I've been in has lots of resources and they're happy to have you there to go talk to them and find out what's going on. That's a huge part for their mission. They really want to be helpful. So use that as part of your resources.

You're definitely going to be using multiple sources for your resources. You're going to want books. You're going to want to be online. You're going to want to be doing group efforts. There are a lot of different things; you want to try them all.

The other thing to say is just because your firm doesn't necessarily have it, you know somebody whose firm has access to this stuff. Just make a deal with them. Just go work out a deal. Go into their firm at lunch or in the evening and just make sure that you have access to it.

Then there are a couple of these general books that I want to mention. There are some specific topic issues that are worth being focused on for a second. One of them is all the Ching books. The Ching is a little bit less ubiquitous as it used to be back, 15-20 years ago.

They have very useful imagery and written elements that tell a very complicated story in very easy to understand ways. It's a really good starting point to put it all into a certain kind of terminology that you can then use to build on.

Another book that's completely worth finding a copy of is “The Architect's Handbook of Professional Practice. The Handbook of Professional Practice”, the Construction Documents and Services exam is... I don't know what percentage, but I'm just going to make up a number. Let's say it's 40% straight out of that book. I just made that number up, right? So don't write that down or anything.

Then there are a couple of other examples. “The Graphic Standards” is the old-time... I was trying to find mine. I have one from 1936 that I can't find which has these amazing masonry details, which I just love. This one's from, I think the '70s or '80s. So I actually have three or four of them. They're great books. They're really useful. You will never start at the beginning and read through the book. That's not what it's meant for. It's meant as a thing that you flip through, find some information, and understand some particular piece. It's more of a reference book. It's useful in this process as a reference.

Then the next one that I want to use as a very particular example is “The MEEB Book”, the mechanical and electrical equipment for buildings. This book is tremendously useful for the systems exam. Essentially if you didn't do anything else and you just got this book and flipped through it or some number of hours you would be able to pass that exam.

It's incredibly useful. It's right on point and it is perhaps the most boring book you've ever read. So you will find that... there we go. All right. You will find that if you start from the beginning and just start reading through, let's say you start on page 20 and you read through to page 25, you're going to realize you don't remember anything you just read. So don't do that. That's not how it's going to work for you most likely. If you're somebody who can do that, great. But most of us, that's not going to work.

You're going to be much more likely to get very good information in. So you're looking at the imagery, at the diagrams, at the photos, and then going through and focusing on the captions.
