  • Vladamir might consider one of UCLA’s live prep sessions.
    Responding to J. Robert Wainner’s comment, my donated time for travel, to organize and teach LARE live prep sessions is all pro-bono since 1995. My live prep sessions thru Chapters reach many active LARE candidates, during past 3 years for 7 to 9 sessions a year.  Agreeing with 1 part of…[Read more]

  • J.Robert Wainner, thank you for your comments. I think your attitude towards LARE is very common to those of us who have struggled to pass. The extreme cost has never out weighed the benefit and that’s a very unfortunate fact. Maybe thats why we have such a low number of LA’s…..have we neared the high 5000’s yet?

  • Richard-
    I don’t recall if you mentioned which section you are taking. But just my 2 cents from my experience (have passed all & now licensed): The earlier the better! That’s too vague tho right?
    For the graphic sections, which are now sections 3 & 4, I started studying about 3 months in advance. For the other 2, I did about 6 weeks – 2…[Read more]

  • Matt,

    Thanks for the great response. Any recommendations for prep time leading up to the exam? I realize everyone studies differently and learning curves vary. Just trying to get an expectation for how long I should study per week and how long before the exam. Seems like there is quite a bit to know for this exam. Thanks for any help or guidance…[Read more]

  • Richard,
    Congrats on starting your LARE Prep effort !
    Yes, with 9 years in the commercial marketplace since 2005, candidates who attend my sessions do recommend the LARE entire book series as very helpful.
    This might help -=in your decision making – Erik Sweet, PLA, ASLA wrote 1 book for Section D (includes Section 3 & 4 content). I wrote 2 book…[Read more]

  • Hello all. Awesome resource here, looking to put it to use. I am beginning the process of studying for the LARE exam in December here in Northern California.

  • LAREwebinarFlyer_2014.pdf
    A year ago I began studying for Section 4 again, after failing it in December 2012. After passing last April, friends asked me to teach an online class geared toward this section, which is trickier than the others. Next week is the first live Q&A session in my 3-part webinar series. More info is in the attached flyer, and…[Read more]

  • 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?
