CLARE vs Black Spectacles

We turn Candidates into Architects with love and damn good ARE test prep.™ You’re going to be an Architect. It’s not a question of if, but when. You’re busy. We’re busy. Everybody’s busy. That’s why we created CLARE. Easily digestible targeted content served in delicious bite-sized pieces. Effective studying that goes wherever you go, optimized to fit a hectic schedule, a short attention span, or chronic procrastination. So, now that you’ve found us let’s do this. How much time have you spent scouring the interwebs for dubious ARE study content and losing sleep wondering if you’re studying the right stuff? You’ve got a bunch of material you’ve bought, borrowed or otherwise obtained stacked up, and each time you look at it, you probably feel sick, and with good reason. You need some CLARITY! Here’s the thing, acquiring all that content may feel productive, but you know it’s not the best use of your time. The tests are tough enough, trying to find the right study material shouldn’t be. The truth is creating study content worthy of your time and money is no easy task. We’ve had our noses in every NCARB resource, worked with a top-notch team of experts, and busted our butts to get you the goods. We all know these tests are hard, and the pass rates are crap. It’s the rare candidate (you know the type) who passes all six divisions on the first try. Everyone else has to work for it. You’ll get there, and we’ll be with you all the way, like an emotional support dog. If you’re feeling anxious? Don’t up your Zoloft - talk to one of our licensed ARE therapists (that’s what we call it). We know our stuff, that’s why we’re here, and shhh... it’s free. CLARE is dynamic. As we create new content, it goes right into your Study Plan. Poof, it’s just…there. It’s like a living, breathing, evolving resource of awesomeness.
