L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months agoI just finished all the LARE exams, and since I am in California I also took and passed the CA exam. I took C and E together and A, B, D together. If you don’t mind studying and are detail oriented it is totally doable. My strategy was to take a lot of practice tests. As many as I could get my hands on. There is a certain way they test, a ki…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months agoI think taking A and B could work very well. But section D has become much more difficult recently — a quite low 51% passing rate on the last exam. Its also 3 hours long, and the material is very very broad.

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months agoMaureen, You’re comment made me smile. I hope no one is doing this licensure thing for exclusivity and prestige. One person’s “exclusive and prestigious” is another person’s struggling profession. I would never go through all of this for exclusivity or prestige. Are you aware that most people do not know or care what an LA is? I was kidding wh…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months agoIt’s great to have a wall of all the books listed as study material. For section A, B, & D the list use to be about 30 books. Most people don’t have the time to read or the expenditures for such a library! They have recently reduced the list to about 4 or 5.Some have very little to do with studying for the exam. Could it be that some academic is…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 13 years, 11 months agoEach time I take it, I think, “I just need to go home and focus more on ( fill in the blank)”. Then I come back, and little I focused on is on there and something I never saw before in all my life is on there. That’s pretty bad when you own over 50-80 vignettes, a shelf of books, numerous electronic feeds and have practiced them every day fo…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 5 months agoI took section C. My plan was to get through the test on my trace without putting it on the test sheets. Get them worked out and leave the labeling and all that for the end. I thought it was a good plan since I got through it with a few hours to spare. I checked them over and then started putting them from my trace onto the sheets. With about an…[Read more]

Susannah,
