Synopsis

 

A Practical Guide & Mock Exam for the Programming, Planning & Practice (PPP) Division of the ARE

 

Every July, NCARB begins to recreate the Architect Registration Examination (ARE) questions based on a new guide and scope. We always incorporate this latest information into our books.

To become a licensed architect, you need to have a proper combination of education and/or experience, meet your Board of Architecture’s special requirements, and pass all seven divisions of ARE.

This book provides an ARE exam overview, suggested reference and resource links, exam prep and exam taking techniques, tips and guides, and a realistic and complete mock exam with solutions and explanations for the Programming, Planning & Practice (PPP) Division of the ARE. More specifically this book covers the following subjects:

• ARE, IDP, and Education Requirements
• ARE Exam Content, Format, and Prep Strategies
• Codes and Regulations
• Environmental, Social & Economic Issues
• Programming & Analysis
• Project Budget & Financing
• Project & Practice Management
• Site Zoning
• Two Graphic Vignettes with Step-By-Step Solutions Using the NCARB Practice Program Software
• Instructions on Installing Alternate DWG Files for Use with NCARB Software

The mock exam includes 85 challenging questions of the same difficulty level and format as the real exam (multiple-choice, check-all-that-apply, and fill-in-the-blank), and two graphic vignettes. This book will help you pass the PPP division of the ARE and become a licensed architect!
