“I rated the ARE Boot Camp a 5 because it provided the structure, accountability, and support I needed to finish all six ARE exams. The study strategies, community, and encouragement helped me stay focused through setbacks and keep moving forward. If you're serious about becoming licensed, this program gives you a proven framework and a community that genuinely wants to see you succeed.”

“Being able to talk through complex ideas with other test takers has been invaluable. Collaborating, asking questions, and hearing how others break things down makes a huge difference in understanding the material. Just as important is the support—failing an exam can feel discouraging, but having a group that lifts you up makes the process far less isolating. The sense of community among future architects has been incredible. From the start, Michael emphasized that resilience is a key part of this journey. I’m grateful he created this program, set a high standard, and reminded us what it takes to see it through.”

“The bootcamp was spot on and it prepared me extremely well for all of my exams. I would (and I do) recommend it to everyone I know going through the process, and I cannot thank Mike and the YA team enough. I appreciate all you have done to help us on this path. Thank you!”

“I've officially completed my last exam, and I'm proud to have finally crossed the finish line. The organization and amount of material are outstanding. The weekly commitment really keeps you on your toes and helps you stay focused and consistent with your study time. I truly credit the Boot Camp and the incredible study materials your team has put together. They made a huge difference and helped me get over that final hurdle.”

“This content is amazing. This content has allowed me to pass all of the exams, and I especially love the videos breaking down objectives and the practice questions. Both resources have been essential to me passing the past four exams.”

“I passed my final ARE exam! It's been a long journey of studying, working, starting and stopping, and picking myself back up after setbacks. I can honestly say that the Technical Boot Camp helped carry me across the finish line. What stood out most to me wasn't just the content (which is great), but the community. The people I met, the support, and the encouragement made a bigger impact than I can fully put into words. I found that people really wanted to commit to continuously meeting up and studying even after Boot Camp. This process can feel long and overwhelming, and having that kind of environment truly changes the experience!”

“Young Architect Bootcamp helped me stay consistent and keep going, even when things felt overwhelming. Being able to talk through questions and having that level of accountability made a huge difference. I studied more independently toward the end, but the program helped me identify gaps in my understanding. The structured approach along with the courses and practice questions made the content much clearer. Overall, I don't think I would have made it through without the Bootcamp.”
