L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoYou’ll get the most out of any prep course (especially Section E) if you work on practice vignettes for at least a couple of weeks prior to the class. Otherwise it can be very discouraging for someone who had been out of school for years and doesn’t work on grading plans on the job.
Also, prep classes are usually full, and there’s usually only…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoThere are also Prep Courses at UCLA Extension. So you can get your classes without too much travel cost. I will post those dates later today.
The site http://www.asla.org, under Education is LARE Prep. There are brand new vignettes posted that you can use to practice. These were prepare by CLARB’s test provider for ASLA to provide to candidates.I agree…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoKatrina,
My reviews in the SF Bay Area are not inexpensive, but you get a very intensive introduction to what the performance sections are about, and lots of practice and feedback opportunities.
E-mail me and I’ll send you a PDF brochure. Rayfreeman3@comcast.net
Most people are more comfortable starting with Section C and saving E for…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoI agree, if you can avoid taking C and E at the same time you may have better luck. It is a TON of information and you can easily get confused or worse: exhausted! That’s not saying it isn’t possilbe, it is just a lot more difficult. C isn’t too bad, but section E is notorious for being a multi-round test! If you can find a review course in your…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoI wouldn’t take c and e at the same time either. I took c twice and passed the second time. Just failed e for the first time after studying like crazy. Just signed up for June…we shall see

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 8 months agoHonestly I wouldn’t try to take them both at once….study your fanny off for one or the other, pass it, and then take the other in December. I thought site design was a lot easier; I took a weekend workshop that gave me good insights into CLARB world (it’s not about beautiful design!). Work out your shortcuts on parking and bus turnarounds…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 9 months agoIf you live in the wonderful progressive State of Maryland, they haven’t even mailed the scores yet (called them today). Too bad their June “Graphic” registration deadline is March 9th. Figures!

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 9 months agoHas anyone seen the pass rates for Section E from June 2009 and Dec. 2009? Talk about a big drop. Went from 48% to 32%. Wow! It seems that there is a cycle as far as passing rates go.

I finally decided to fork over a rediculous sum of money to CLARB ($160) to review redlines. REDICULOUS! Shouldn’t it be part of the original $330? I…[Read more] -

Carolina Irani posted an update in the group
L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 9 months agoYep, that sounds right. I asked CLARB if there was a way to double check one’s score and they told me each state decided on that option so I was curious if anyone had that experience. I’m in Illinois so we don’t have access to redlines and the state says it may or may not offer to review scores or look at the test at all and if they do it involves…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 14 years, 9 months agoI know a woman who took E, was told she had failed and ordered a redline. In the process of redlining the vignettes, the reviewer decided that the woman had passed after all. She found this out after she took a Section E prep workshop, and after signing up for the exam again.
Is that what you mean? -
