Jeff Torrens posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 12 years, 4 months ago

I still have the preparatory materials that I made available in April (see below). Even though the test is changing formats, this material is still sold through the PPI website – don’t be fooled by the new packaging…it’s the same thing and they haven’t yet figured out how to adapt to the new format (see here for a direct comparison of the r…[Read more]

I live in Upper Marlboro, MD, and am preparing for Sections 3 & 4 in December. Any DC/Baltimore/NoVa candidates doing the same? I’ve got all my study books and old vignettes, but it could be nice to know others in the same boat.

PPI – LARE Complete Review Package Sections A-E. This package is as ordered directly from PPI and includes all of the materials listed on their website (click here to see what is included). They are virtually unmarked as I worked on copies instead of the originals. This package originally sells for $335, but I’m asking $300. A discounte…[Read more]

Anyone living in Southern California taking LARE Sections C or E in June? I’ve taken & passed sections A, B, & D. Now its time to tackle C & E. I’m in the process of gathering info & looking for study partners. Give me a shout if you’re interested in comparing notes.

Watermouse, some new material on stormwater, and a refresher never hurts! Good luck on passing this time. Sent you a private reply also.

Sherry Alexander posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 12 years, 11 months ago

Did you already pass Section C and E?

watermouse posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 12 years, 11 months ago

hi Stephanie,
For section D, are there any new materials. I’ve taken the class 5 years ago. I really need to pass before the new change.

Anyone, want to have study group strictly for D? I’m in Orange County, CA or we can just do emailing to share study materials. Thanks

Hugh Ryan posted an update in the group MENTORS: WISE and TRUSTED counselors or teachers. 13 years ago

For me mentoring is a lot to do with conversation, and whenever I get the chance I like nothing better than to sit down and chat.
There are however many people whom I admire that I have not yet met, and one of those would be Zaha Hadid.
Of those I am unlikely to meet I would have to name Francis Bacon. I really love his work, but I also like wha…[Read more]

Great. Glad to know that. Thanks, Mary Anne.
CLARB: If you’re listening in, consider adding some descriptive content to the LARE Orientation Guide about the interface if you are no longer able to provide a demo.

Cheryl Corson posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 3 months ago

I’ve got a question about the computer interface for multiple choice sections. CLARB no longer has a sample on its web site and the $30, 30 minute test drive session at Prometrix isn’t convenient. Can you only go back to questions you have not answered, or can you review all your answers and make changes at any time?

Veronica Meadows posted an update in the group L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 3 months ago

Scores for the June 2011 Graphic administration have been posted on the CLARB website. Please contact Rebecca Moden at modenr@clarb.org if you need assistance accessing or viewing your scores.
