CONGRATULATIONS, Brandon, Clayton, and Wendy! I’m inspired.
Sadly, not inspired enough to take Section E again in June. I’ve got a huge project due right about then, and I just don’t think I can give studying the time it really needs. Being self-employed and having to do this on one’s own really sucks. Happy to have work, not happy that my big…[Read more] -

In answer to Amy, I took grading twice and all the other sections once. I did not try to take C and E at the same time, it seemed like asking for trouble… a guy in my study group passed E and failed C this time, go figure…!

Congratulations Brandon, anyone who has taken Section E multiple times (including me) shares your sentiments. I passed after 7 times. After the second or third time I thought I would never get by Section E. I just couldn’t bring myself to quit. After passing, last June, I have just now sent in my application to take the CA supplemental. I too…[Read more]

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Brandon for starting this conversation….it made me feel a lot less nutty to go through this process with a crowd of others in the same boat. I am happy to say I’m done now, passed grading and all the other sections and now I can move on with my life! And whoever recommended the LARCH software, there’s some…[Read more]

Two points Brandon makes that I would like to reiterate, because they are really important if at first you don’t succeed….
Be really careful about reading the requirements of the vignettes. CLARB places a very high premium on the KSA “Ability to Read, Understand and Follow (precisely) Written Directions”.
Figure out your weaknesses and bring…[Read more]

Per your request Ray, I am submitting this for anyone that needs help or hope to pass this monster we call LARE….

Let me add my congratulations Brandon. Isabelle Greene took that portion many times (I’m sworn to secrecy on the total) but she passed. And Clayton, congratulations!

Congratulations Brandon! It was obviously a real slog, but you kept after it! This is a good lesson for everyone, if you don’t give up and keep working at it, you will pass.

Clayton,
I imagine Ready Set Practice by Bruce Sharky or Guidelines for Professional Practice by Lane Marshall would address this.

Can anybody suggest books that go further into explaining all the different insurances that have to be carried?

Thank you Eric for your feedback – invaluable information since many have been asking about the LEED GA exam.

Just sat for the GA Exam and passed on the first attempt. It’s definitely distilled down from the old version of the exams. From my perspective the LEED GA is a great credential for LAs to have the distinction, but without having to go through the specialty portions that are beyond our typical work. Sustainable Sites is where I’m placing my emphasis.
