Professional certification exam and am looking for feedback from anyone that
has taken the exam. Any advice on exam prep, etc. would be
appreciated. I’ve already checked out the info on ashrae.org; the
sample exam questions are limited so it is tough to get a feel for the overall
exam content and rigor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
