Why doesn’t NCARB produce more comprehensive study materials for the ARE?
The ARE is developed by NCARB and is a high-stakes licensing examination in which you are required to demonstrate your knowledge, skills, and ability. The ARE is not a teaching tool to prepare one for licensure. As such, the materials produced by NCARB serve a different purpose than those provided for college classes or admissions exams. NCARB provides exam information to candidates for the sole purpose of allowing them to become familiar with the format of multiple-choice and vignette items.
