    No I haven't but I have thought about taking it myself. I would like to know what you come across for study material. I wish they had classes that you could take to prep for the test.

    I am answering my own question in case anyone else out there is going to go for Leed. My test date is June 30th, the last day before the new (harder) test comes out. From all of my research it seems that PPI2PASS.com has the best test prep material, also buy the study guide for USGBC Colorado and of course the USGBC ref. guide.
    Use code PSS92 to get 10% off any textbooks from PPI site expires (11/09).


    Wish me Luck, with a 20% first time pass rate this is a tricky exam, wish IC had flashcards for it

    The challenge is that it's a multi answer type exam "pick all that apply..." and other such nonsence. With the changes in their system it's getting worse as you pointed out.

    Best of luck. I know people that have passed so it's not impossible. Just be really ready come June. It's a pricy test to fail.
