Project Planning & Design Exam Practice Questions
- A total of 240 Questions (!!The questions in quizzes and mock exams are the same!!)
- 2 Practice Formats:
- 20 Question Quizzes: 12 x 20 Question quizzes, each with questions from all actual exam content areas with reflected percentages. This format is untimed, and the correct answer and feedback of each question are shown right after you submit your answer.
- 2 Mock Exams: Like the actual exam, 100 questions (each), timed mock exam with questions from all content areas of the real exam with reflected percentages. The answers to the questions with feedback will be available at the end.
- Feedback as Study Source: This is the most significant feature of AreQuestions! There is an extensive explanation of each question, supported with graphics, multiple solution methods, study, and exam tips. And most importantly, almost 80% of feedback refers test-takers to a book, chapter, and even section or graphic where you can further read/study the topic and utilize each question as a study tool.
- NCARB Content Area and Percentage Match: I have created questions from each content area with reflected percentages so your experience can be as close as to the actual exam. At the end of your test, you will receive a report that shows your achievement in each content area.
- Mobile Access: You can easily access your questions via your phone or tablet.
- One-time payment, no subscription: Once you purchase, you will have access to the questions for 1 year. I hope you do, but if you don’t pass within the first year and need to extend your access, all you need to do is to send me an email with the screenshot of your NCARB record (hide your account information before you send please) showing that you are still testing for PPD and I will give you another year or until you pass. Access dates cannot be managed per each user’s test schedule or cannot be reinstated before they expire. Please let me know after they expire and give me a minimum of 3 business days to reinstate your access.
- Note that this bundle doesn’t have Case Studies. BUT, similar to case study questions, there are a lot of questions that have a document attached to them and you need to review them to answer the questions.
Bundle Includes
- 3 Exams
- 14 Quizzes

I used your PA, PPD, and PDD bundle. I also did your Live quiz marathon. Your questions are analytical, and your answers are well-explained. The test taking tips are perfect. Your cost for the material is a plus. Your reference material is the same NCARB recommends using. Each person's journey is different but to me, your practice tests are a must to pass the real exams.
Congratulations Beatriz! I am so happy for you! Thanks for your great feedback, hope it helps others.

I believe a bit more quality control on all the questions would be helpful. Also, the links to outside references are a bit of a pain. The real exam provides references, it would be nice if this did too. It would also be nice if the programs didn't keep trying to sell you additional material. This stuff isn't cheap, there shouldn't be commercials.
Hi Casey,
Thanks for your feedback. A quiz software that is similar to the real exam is a custom coded software that costs tens of thousands of dollars to create and thousands of dollars to maintain each month. Even with all the resources that NCARB has, their software constantly crashes and people typically complain about how the integrated materials were impossible to download or were simply illegible That’s why I think opening attachments on separate pages is much more effective. If I had created a similar software to NCARB, I could never make my questions available at this affordable rates. As you know many test providers charge $$$/ month where I still offer one time payment for my question bundles. Because I know most of the architects don’t make enough money and they suffer each month to pay for the pricey materials. But they have to because they are desperate. I rather focus on the content than the packaging because I don’t want to create another expensive monthly subscription product for the already financially struggling architectural workers.
My website doesn’t have any commercials, so I am not sure what you mean by that. If you are referring to the books I recommend in the feedbacks, those are not written by me. I don’t get revenue from their sales. I simply give my recommendations because that is what I genuinely believe you need to study to pass these exams. But it is up to test takers to make that decision to whether buy them or not. So, it is just a suggestion.

study material , i need direction with that. AHPP is thousand pages i don't think there is clear direction on the topic, meaning thousand of pages not clear how to start.any help? PCM, PJM
Hi,
I am sorry that you need to read a variety of different books to pass these 6 exams but I am not the one making the rules of the exams. It is NCARB that suggests test takers read these books, including AHPP. I just try to help people by creating content based on these books so you can support your readings by solving my questions after your studies. Almost all of my questions specifically refer to a chapter/section or page in these books. I genuinely think this is the best way to study for your exams and I know that it is not easy, but this is the only working method I know and feel comfortable recommending others. I hope this helps. I wish you the best of luck with your exams!

Some of the questions are repeated in the quizzes so not all the quizzes have different questions, that’s the only thing I probably didn’t like but for the rest I recommend it!
Hi! Thanks for your comment. I am so happy to hear that you liked the questions.
Just to clarify for others reading this, there are 240 unique questions spread across 12 quizzes, with each quiz containing 20 questions (12 quizzes x 20 questions = 240 questions total). None of the questions are repeated from Quiz 1 to Quiz 12. Additionally, there’s another format called Mock Exams, where the same 240 questions are divided into 2 mock exams to offer test takers an alternative testing option. These mock exams are timed, and the system selects 100 questions from the first 120 questions for Mock Exam-1, and another 100 questions from the second 120 questions batch for Mock Exam-2.
Lastly, questions shuffle every time you restart a quiz or mock exam.

You can tell that a lot of efort went into the execution of getting this content organized. This is by far my foundational study resource for the ARE's. I am really challenged by each question. Thanks for the effort put into this content!
Thank you so much for your comment. A lot of people find my questions challenging so wanted to let you know that you are not alone. Keep studying, and I hope you will pass your exams.

I have been circulating the quizzes for PA, PPD, and PDD. I have successfully completed PA - and I don't believe I would be able to succeed if it weren't for Elif's questions and citing the resources she used the questions from. I am so grateful for the price and the quality. These questions are a must to get a solid understanding on how NCARB can *trick you! The absolute best. What a gem.
Congratulations, I am so happy for you. And thank you so much for taking the time to acknowledge my efforts ❤️ Seeing that people appreciate the quality and affordable price of my materials is great.

Great questions with good references to check after you answer the questions.
Thanks for your feedback and pointing out the importance of the references provided in each question. Passing AREs is a comprehensive effort and cannot be achieved by studying just one material/ book/source.
