I am planing to take the Revit Architecture 2011 certification test. I have purchased the practice exam but I haven't taken it yet. I didn't know you could only take it once. So I'm looking for practice material to go through before I take the practice test. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

The official book for the certification, everything on the test is covered in/from it:

You can find it less expensive on Amazon.com

... I didn't know you could only take it once...

That was my biggest gripe about the practice tests. "I was a bit disappointed when I paid for the assessment test and read "Restrictions: This test can only be taken once". One of the factors in me purchasing the exam early was that I had read in numerous places "These tests are non-proctored, available 24 - 7 to your desktop in North America. Test delivery requires IE 5.5 or better and Windows". It doesn't say anything about only being able to take the test ONE TIME. I know $20 isn't a whole lot of money, but had I known this little fact, I would have at least started it a little more prepared than I was."

I wrote that in a blog post about 2 months ago.

Robert: is that the logo you get access too after your certified? I did pretty good on the practice test. But something else that is disappointing is that there is only one practice test per exam.

This is one of them, yes. They provide B&W versions as well.

I agree, that is a bit disappointing too. I'm not sure about Revit, but you will only need that one practice test for the AutoCAD Professional exam. I do wish there were more for the Associate exam though. (That's probably why I did so poorly)

From the looks of it, Autodesk needs to hire more SMEs.
