“The Technical Bootcamp has been absolutely amazing! I had failed my last two tests a couple of times and was feeling really defeated. I decided to give this a try, and I’m so glad I did. The fact that they stick with you until you pass and offer continued support the whole way through is more valuable than I can put into words. The community support has been a huge help—it’s reassuring to know I’m not alone in this tough process. I also love the meetups and all the great discussions we have!”

“Bootcamp tells you exactly what to study, you just have to do it and you'll pass! I felt like this program was worth the investment in myself. I recommend bootcamp to any of my friends and coworkers in the industry that is pursuing their license. This program not only helped me pass my exams, but I made friends with people from all over the country and we worked together to achieve a common goal by keeping each other accountable. This program brings out the best in people seeking their licensure. I truly could not have done this so efficiently without the YA Bootcamps to get me across the finish line!”

“I was hestitant to join ARE Bootcamp at first because of the cost. I tried to study on my own, failed my first exam, and completely lost momentum. I didn't know where to go from that first fail, so I decided it was time to bite the bullet and pay for ARE bootcamp. It is honestly one of the best investments I've made. The material, the coaches, and people you meet through this journey are amazing. Not only do you gain access to great content, but you have the support of coaches in the background and others that are studying as well. Everyone is extremely helpful. It makes this process less intimidating and even a little fun.”

“Gives you the tools you need to conquer the exams as well as a support system for all of the bumps and challenges along the way. If you're getting started and don't know how or where, this is the place. If you've started testing and are on the verge of giving up, this is the place to get back on track.”

“The coaching/guidance process created a really beneficial structure for me to follow personally and to anchor my study efforts around. For me it was worth the investment to cut down the time and I really was able to draw out all that I needed to be successful in my ARE attempts. Prior to the bootcamps it felt there was a daunting information vacuum and the bootcamps were good lighthouses in that journey. Greatly appreciate the program.”

“Bootcamp is the best way to study for the AREs. They provide incredible content to study while making it easily digestible. Above all the content is the incredible community! Bootcamp isn't just a study guide to pass exams, it's a study group that helps each other get across the finish line. There's no better way to study!”

“YA Bootcamp is the greatest investment I have made in my career - after several failed attempts on the technical exams, I signed up for Bootcamp and passed the rest of my exams within weeks of each other. Having the structure of a syllabus and the community of people to study with was an absolute game changer. I am so thankful to this program and it is the reason I am able to stamp drawings today!”

“For those lost in what material to read/watch/review, this is a great place to start. Not only are the team helpful, Mike is always there to answer your questions - with a phone call! That's really personal. Plus, you get to meet individuals who are in the same boat you are and are experiencing the same thing you are. Community is everything and the thing about bootcamp that other 3rd parties don't have, are the meetups. You meet with other individuals taking the same test you are and you review practice questions. It's a really great tool. You also get a plethora of questions and resources. Bootcamp is worth it.”
