Passing 2 AREs in a Day
Navigating the ARE 5.0 exams with dyslexia was no small feat. It took me 6 months, 900 study hours, and learning from multiple failures. But with persistence and the right strategy, I made it through every exam. Yes, I even managed to pass 2 exams within 24 hours. If you are on this journey, remember: it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Consistency and persistence will get you licensed. In this blog, I am sharing the study strategy that worked for me. ...
Perseverancia Vincit
I first encountered the phrase Perseverancia Vincit in 4th grade. At the time, it was just something my teacher used to say to encourage us - “perseverance conquers.” It sounded nice, but I didn’t fully grasp the weight of those words. It stayed with me over the years, but I never truly understood its meaning until I found myself in the thick of the AREs. Fast forward to my first round of the AREs. I took all 6 exams, and I failed 5 of them. The disappointment was overwhelming. After months of preparation, to come up short felt like a major setback.

That phrase became my anchor. I pushed forward, and on my second attempt, I passed 4 out of 5 exams, including 2 exams within a span of 24 hours. The lesson wasn’t about avoiding failure but persevering through it. ...
Who was Arniko?
We named our platform Arniko Academy to honor the legacy of Arniko (er-ni-koh, /ɚ.nɪkoʊ/), a 13th-century Nepalese artist and architect whose work transcended cultural, geographical, and temporal boundaries. Arniko was not just an architect - he was a visionary who embraced creativity, innovation, and technical mastery. His influence went far beyond his homeland, earning international recognition and leaving a lasting mark on art and architecture. For us, the name Arniko represents more than history; it’s a guiding principle. Like Arniko, we believe that architects must combine technical skill with creativity and adaptability to succeed in an ever-changing world. Our mission is to nurture the next generation of architects, equipping them with the mindset and tools to push boundaries, think critically, and excel not just in exams like the ARE 5.0, but in their careers. ...
