The LEED-AP-ND exam includes 100 questions, and you have 110 minutes to complete it. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count so you know the pace you need to hold, and practice flagging time-consuming items for review instead of stalling on a single question. Timed sessions in the Exam4PDF test engine are the easiest way to build that rhythm before it counts.

You need 170 to pass the LEED-AP-ND exam, and the official registration fee is $495 USD.

USGBC asks candidates to meet the following requirement before registering: Must hold a valid LEED Green Associate credential OR must meet eligibility requirements through relevant experience in planning, design, or construction related to sustainable neighborhood development.
