L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 2 months agoWhen the new format was instated, the record holder fee covered a whole year, so that you could save a little bit of money by attempting to take the exam sections either together or as Tony did, a week apart without a “new” application fee. I like Tony’s suggestion. Rebooting takes about a week, and with the window for exams, could easily be…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 2 months agoHi Tony. After attending a review session by Matt Mathes last year, it was recommended to take 1 & 2 together and 3 & 4 together. This was because there was a certain amount of overlap between these sections which made for better studying. I took 1 & 2 on back to back days last year in December due to the distance I had to travel to take the ex…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 2 months agoHello Tony, When I took the old format Sections A & B, I did so on consecutive mornings. Those exams aren’t as long as Sections 3 & 4, so this can be done. When I used the same strategy on the new format Sections 3 & 4, I failed Section 4 by a little bit, retook it by itself in the next exam cycle and passed. Good luck to you!

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 2 months agoI’m looking to take Sections 1 & 2 during the December session, as I’ve read many people do. It is unclear when people say they took sections “together” if they are taking both sections back-to-back in the same day or spacing it out over the course of the examination window. One has the advantage of less time off work, the other gives time to…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 4 months agoMr. Wainner is entitled to his opinion, however no review course on the LARE or any other professional licensing exam is ever free to the candidates. The ASLA, various extension programs, and many state chapter charge fees for live or web-based reviews. In the past, CLARB charged serious fees for study aids including “The Road to Licensure” and…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 4 months agoVladamir 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] -

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 9 years, 5 months agoJ.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?

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] -

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 10 years, 4 months agoMatt,
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]
