LEED AP O+M Exam Study Guide

Step 1: Register for your LEED AP O+M Exam

Accessing your exam registration is easy. Log in to your USGBC account and click credentials. This will load a list of current exams on which you meet the prerequisites. We recommend registering for your LEED exam 1-2 months from when you start studying. This will give you enough time to prepare for the difficulty of the LEED exams fully. Have no fear with a proper study plan and the right study guide! You will pass the first time.

Step 2: Studying for your LEED O+M Exam

The exam contains 100 multiple-choice questions, and you are given two hours to complete it. A passing score is 170 or higher. At the end of the exam, you will learn your score. All LEED® Professional exams are scored between 125 and 200 scale system. The O+M exam is no different from the other LEED credentials like the BD+C exam. Each question has the potential to be graded at the discretion of the USGBC and GBCI based on other O+M exam candidates' answers.

If you run into a tricky question on the O+M exam, do not panic. Skip the question and come back to it at a later point. Some questions during the rest of the exam may "jog" your memory. For each question, you have more than ample amount of time to complete the question. Always spend some time reviewing your AP Exam to make sure you have answered every question.
