Start testHow these LARE practice tests match the real exam
The real Landscape Architect Registration Examination (LARE) has 375 questions and a 720-minute time limit. Question types: Four item types appear in every section: multiple choice (select one), multiple response ("choose 2", "choose 3" or "choose all that apply"; always two or more correct and never all), hot spot (click the most appropriate location on a plan) and drag and place (drag project elements, labels, spot elevations or contours onto a site). Every item is worth one point with no partial credit. Some items include a tabbed pop-up exhibit. Each section includes 10 unscored pretest items placed randomly. Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how LARE questions are asked before test day.
The tests draw on every LARE content area, weighted like the official outline:
- Inventory, Analysis, and Project Management (about 27% of the exam)
- Planning and Design (about 25% of the exam)
- Construction Documentation and Administration (about 27% of the exam)
- Grading, Drainage, and Stormwater Management (about 21% of the exam)
Use tutor mode to see the explanation after each answer, or timed mode to practise at real exam pace. Every answer comes with an explanation of why it is right and why the other options are wrong.
