About Our Practice Exams
Our exams are curated by Kevin Griendling, AIA—drawing on years of ARE mentoring to craft the most authentic ARE 5.0–style questions available. Each item is written to mirror NCARB’s structure, difficulty, and nuance, so you’re not just memorizing—you’re thinking like a licensed architect. The system adapts to you: take a test, review your score, and instantly see which knowledge areas need work. Every result links directly to the corresponding lessons, videos, and drills in PrepARE so you can strengthen weak spots without hunting around. The interface is intuitive—jump into a 10‑question sprint, a 25‑question builder, or a full timed simulation. When you consistently score 70% or higher on our full-length exams, you can schedule the real thing with confidence. Kevin’s curated bank shows you what you already know, what to polish, and when you’re truly ready.
