It had a good amount of USPAP. I do not recall anything on AO's or FAQ's. Just stick to the meat. Most felt like common sense. I went through and did all those first and then went back to complicated math questions.
 
AI Book helped and questions were very similar. Quizlet.com Helped even more. My advice would be study: 1. Real Estate Market : Agents of production, Factors of value (Desire, Utility etc), Forces of value (Social, Economics). Make sure you know what the definition is for each. Government Power: Police Power, Escheat etc. Types of real estate value. Cost Approach, Sales COmparison approach ( make sure you know how to get adjustments from comps provided in the test questions). Couple of questions regarding: Discount Points, Cap Rates, Depreciation. Im attaching couple of PDF Files you can go through and look at also. But look at quizlet.com and type in COST Approach, sales comparison approach etc. and go through those flash cards as well. Hope it helps.
THANK YOU FOR ATTACHMENTS JUST ABOUT TO RETAKE EXAM

Heh sorry it didn't help. Just keep trying. I failed multiple times too but eventually passed it. Keep your head up and keep marching forward.
 
Thank you so much for the info. I was very angry when I posted previous comments because I studied so hard and failed every section. Anyway, apologies if any posts came off as offensive. Thanks again.
