I saw something posted about how the scoring works for the new graphic sections, but it didn’t make any sense at all. Check out page 14 of the reference guide where there’s a diagram of a ruler: https://www.clarb.org/Candidates/Documents/LAREOrientationGuide.pdf

Hey Urmila! I did pass Sections 1 and 2 when they were still called A and B. I actually read through many of the books listed in the “Suggested Reading” list on CLARB’s website and found them really useful, if not a little dry sometimes. I had several of the books from school and was able to find the rest at the library. Even if you skim a few chapters a week, they’re really good resources. Also, I used the PPI books that you can buy or sometimes find for free online. Taking practice tests are really helpful! Check out the EPA.gov website for some of the newer sustainable practice/best management practices info.

I don’t have anything to sell, but look for the Google Group and you can find stuff for free! Hope that helps. Good luck!

ASLA has PDFs with reference materials for Sections 3 and 4 posted online! I would download them ASAP because, from my experience, CLARB and ASLA tend to post things and then mysteriously update them or remove them without any notification.

I put a link on the Pinterest board.

It’s progressing very slowly! I’ll be diving back into the graphic standards book soon myself. Good luck!

I did not– I decided to wait until April and a first round of the new exam format. Honestly, the fact that CLARB hadn’t posted practice exams scared me. If they can’t figure it out, how am I supposed to? I unfortunately don’t have $1,000 to waste!
