Your exams include a lot of calculations like for example bicycle storage or changing rooms, or basic services. People who did the LEED Green Associate told me that there are no calculations. I mean calculations like these should be in LEED AP exam. Can you clarify to help me understand. I am not sleeping much and after I saw these in your exams I did not sleep at all :)

Answer: 

In my experience there are some calculations on the LEED GA exam. You may see calculations for bike racks. To earn this credit (same as below -- remember 5% of FTE) and transient visitors.

The community connectivity question is common. You will need to remember all of the basic services and the fact that restaurants can be counted twice. I've seen this type of thing on the exam...

The shower question is also common. Again, for SS credit 4.2 remember that LEED requires showers for 0.5% of FTEs to achieve this particular credit.
