I have approached the exams in a non traditional order and was curious if anyone has advice for shifting to the practice and project management exams. I have already take and passed PA, PPD, and PDD. Do I need to think of these exams in a vacuum from the three I have done already or do they tie in closely?

  All ARE divisions are related. For PcM, make sure you peruse the AIA documents.

  I agree with Gang Chen - specifically, the B101 and C401 documents are important.

  Since you already passed PA, PDD, and PPD, you might want to consider moving on to CE next.  It's a logical progression since you took the exams that loosely cover the SD, DD, and CD phases - now you can move on to bidding and CA before moving to PcM and PjM.

  Thanks for the reply. I thought about doing CE but opted to tackle PcM first to start getting familiar with the contracts. I actually already passed PcM about a week ago and am now preparing for PjM.
