I have sections 3 &4 left to take; unfortunately it seems that Florida ASLA is not currently offering a LARE Review.  Given that I will be required to travel out of state to attend a review, does anyone have any recommendations in regards to who does offer a good LARE review or who I should avoid?

I need to get started on taking Section 1 and 2 of the Lare and I need help on where to start. HELP!

Leo – Thank you for the information…this will help a lot.  I saw the survey on Bayt.com but all the salaries were blocked from my viewing. I am currently research cost of living as well, it seems to be fairly equal to the U.S.
Thanks again, Kelly

This might be helpful – published by Bayt.com (from anonymous employee survey) last week:
Average salary for job title “senior landscape architect”
$8832 UAE
$6987 Bahrain
$4732 Qatar
$6539 KSA
Advise you check the cost of living to know the net value.  Hope this helps.

I am currently in employment negotiations with a large firm in Qatar and am looking for information on what salaries are for LA’s there.  I just finished my masters degree, and have a BSLA with 10 yrs of experience.
If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks,
