After PA what would you recommed to take PPD or PDD?
I am rescheduling my PA exam for March and then I would like to tackle the PPD and PDD exams by studying for them both. Do you recommend I take PPD first and then PDD? I am currently studying is my full time job for the next 3 months before I need to go back to 9-5 Ft job

PPD has more overlap with PA in my opinion. I remember thinking to myself during my PPD exam "isn't this question PA?" many times. I waited a long time between PA and PPD so my residual PA knowledge was not great (but was enough to get me through). At the same time you can also get more PDD-esque question during PPD. I guess that's why PPD is hard because it covers such a large range.
I do feel PDD is quite different from PPD. PDD goes into a lot more details (code analysis, wall details, material behaviors, etc).
Studying for both is a good idea. Get all the bases covered. Check out Elif's post if you haven't already.
