Schematic Design: ARE Sample Problems and Practice Exam (Architect Registration Exam)

Customer Reviews:

Do NOT waste your money

By Mister B - January 13, 2013

The Ballast series is great... Im on my last test (this one, SD) and I have purchased *most* of their other books and can easily recommend that you buy them too. But this one is different. It is quite literally (almost) worthless. As you (should) know this particular ARE test is all graphic so the only thing that is really going to help you is practice, practice, practice! I bought this book hoping it would have "tips" and "tricks" etc and maybe some pictures walking you through the process. But except for page 3 and 30 there is nothing but pictures of failing and passing solutions. The tips are total fluff, for example - One of the tips provided: "Read the program and space requirements carefully"

You already know about the forum (eluded to by another reviewer), go there and get the alternate schemes and practice like crazy. There are some really VERY useful visual guides there too... All free and will help you more than any book.

Again don't waste your hard... read more
