| About Us | ARE
READY Course is structured for students who are interested in taking
the exam NOW, as well as, students who would like to study at a
slower pace. Lecture will cover key ARE content and answering strategies.
Students will be provided a Study Methodology with Syllabus, exam
breakdown, daily study routine and a recommended timeline to take
ONE exam per week for students who are interested in the
challenge.
Unlike
other seminar style classes, ARE READY Course is a cohesive
college-level type course taught by instructors who are university
level educators and have passed the 2006 ARE 3.1 Exam. The A.R.E. is
comprised on (9) exams. Each class covers (1) exam. **General
Structures and Mechanical are covered in (2) sessions due to
the amount of material.
Please
note that you need to bring a PC laptop to class where
indicated (Mac with parallel windows can work for NCARB
software and Windows Vista
experiences some glitches). A laptop is recommended for
effective learning. If you donot own a laptop, try borrowing
one from work, family or friend. Please bring trace, architectural
scale and pencil if you donot bring a laptop.
