I suggest you read them all though if you are serious about passing the exam. They are great books to have in your library for referencing throughout your career so make the investment if you can.

LARE Multiple Choice Discussion 13 years, 7 months agoJessica,
I have Site Analysis, and Site Planning & Design Handbook. I read both of them, but only skimmed the Site Planning book. Definitely read Site Analysis and get the PPI study material, and maybe the CLARB practice test. That is what got me to pass this time.

LARE Multiple Choice Discussion 13 years, 9 months agoTad, I don’t know why Russ would write it as 1:4. That’s not the “conventional” way of doing it.

The LATC has it’s own standards on eligibility to take the exam. You can get info off their web site.
The webinars are recorded. I think if you register as a pro member thru Land 8 you can view the webinar content at your leisure. Check with Andrew Spiering (the founder of the site) on procedures. -
