GBES Reviews 

GBES helped me pass my LEED AP BD+C exam using practice exams. I have also done continuing education with them, and it was easy. Very professional.

Very unprofessional. There are a lot of background noises in the videos. Dog barking, someone cooking and random activities, which effects the voice recordings that you missed the words. Very distracting!

GBES is a really good resource for the WELL exam review. I took the WELL V2 beta exam. While the GBES review questions do not exactly mirror the actual exam questions, I felt more confident answering the actual WELL AP exam questions because the review helped me remember a lot of the relevant information. My WELL score is 187 (93.5%).

The practice exams are really great as a confidence booster. Taking the practice tests over and over is a great way to actually prepare for the exam.

The only comments I have for possible improvement:
1. The questions in the WELL V2 exam have a lot of application based questions, especially the ones that require calculation. I think that's what this reviewer lacked since most of the practice questions draw directly from the text, and application practice questions were a lot less challenging than the ones in the actual exam.

2. There were a few typo errors in the WELL review questions/answers, but this is a nitpick on my end.

I have used GBES twice. Both times with success! My first was for the LEED AP BD+C Exam. The second was most recently for the WELL AP Exam. I have to say I am completely satisfied with how the materials prepared me for each exam. On the LEED exam I had a bit more time to study and prepare. The exam felt very true to the Practice Tests. On the WELL exam, I had only two weeks to study and take the exam. We had an interview with a client and a prerequisite for advancing in the process was to have a WELL AP on staff. KEEP TAKING THE PRACTICE EXAMS!!! What I found was that over time, I began to memorize the questions/answers. This helped tremendously with understanding the concepts. I realize those questions are not exactly on the exam, but knowing the origin of the answer is what helps my retention. The site also offered Webinars on the material which I also found helpful. Lastly, I do recommend creating your own mnemonic devices for memorization. Learn those sentences, and when you sit down to take the exam, regurgitate them as quickly as you can on your scratch paper. You may need them or you may not, but it quickly gets your mind in gear with everything that you studied and practiced. This site has excellent materials for exam prep and is well worth the money if you want to take these exams once and pass. There are plenty of practice tests, flash cards (great quick study tool), webinars and other material source references. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

I passed LEED AP BD+C Feb/02/2020 in my first try.
The exam is not easy at all, you need to study hard, understand and analyze.
GBES LEED sample question was a big help but not enough, it will give you a good idea, I used sample questions so many times, based on each credit and after finish, each credit I tried 100 by 100 sample questions pool, a mixed question for more than 20 times.
I finished the exam in 90 minute, 30-minute review and 185 scores, got hundred in 3 credits domain.
you need to study carefully and understand each and every credit.
Also, you need to analyze and compare some credit with the same concept. 80-85% of the exam question is based on understanding not memorizing.
Good Luck!

very interesting, full of examples and information. Thank you!

Its the best data center for USGBC Exams. Passed LEED (GA) in first attempt and looking forward for LEED AP.

Strategically designed material which is also compact and fulfilling.

GBES provided a wide-range of LEED CEU's for my LEED GA recertification. The courses were relevant and interesting and the GBES website was easy to navigate and use. Overall, the recertification process was much easier thanks to GBES' offerings.

I am very happy with the selection of CE webinars and other learning materials for my LEED AP credential. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended!

I highly recommend GBES Study material and Practice Tests. It has really helped me ace my LEED Green Associate Exam in my first attempt with a score of [194/200] Thanks and keep up the good work.

Enjoyed the content and presentation method. I think the course scratches the surface on what we can do as designers to change our approach to human centric design. I look forward to working in this field.

Actually it’s good reference

Feedback: The quizzes were helpful. I passed my LEED exam with very high score. I have just one comment. Though I passed all mock tests, my CE hours could not be recorded. You need to make this task easy.

Their review materials mirror the exam itself.

Since 2013, I've been using GBES courses for the Exam and CMP, I'm really happy with. I can keep all the courses I purchased in my account and, also having GBES reporting to the USGBC is so helpful. Thanks for everyone's effort!

Great resource for preparing for LEED credentials.

Descriptions are fundamentally different from the actual descriptions in USGBC and I’ve found multiple errors in their flash cards with assigning wrong descriptions to terms and repeating the same question multiple times with a different answer each time. Their videos don’t have the proper text and images on the screen as the video speaks or a pdf download of it so you have to pause and repeat multiple times just to take notes.
