Join us for our 3^rd quarter Espresso Yourself series entitled, “Top 5 Time Management Techniques for ARE Exams,” presented by Eric Corey Freed of Architect Exam Prep.

Whether you’ve taken a few exams and failed, or just heard stories from friends, the six divisions of the Architect Registration Exam (ARE) are tough, but not for the reasons you think. Every candidate struggles with time on their ARE exams. Some spend too much time on the case studies, others obsess over the hard questions, and everyone misses not having a clear time management strategy. If you run out of time, your score report is useless as it only reflects the questions you answered.

In this webinar, you’ll get a crash course on how to develop a clear time management strategy for all 6 divisions of the ARE and get valuable tips on how to work your way through the exam with confidence.

Hear from the founders of Architect Exam Prep who share their experience coaching thousands of candidates to success with their AREs!

You’ll learn:

• What a winning time management strategy looks like
• The truth behind how much time to spend on each question
• The top mistakes most candidates make in terms of their timing
