What must you do to schedule an exam appointment?

• A. Log into your NCARB Record, click the 'Exams' tab, and follow the scheduling process.
• B. Call the testing center and request a date.
• C. Submit a paper form by mail.
• D. Attend an orientation session before scheduling.

Answer: (A)

Scheduling an ARE exam is done online through your NCARB Record. After you log in, go to the Exams tab and follow the scheduling flow to pick a test date, time, and nearby center. Everything you need—eligibility, available slots, and confirmation—is handled inside that portal, tied to your account. The other options aren’t how the official scheduling works: you don’t call a center, mail a form, or attend an orientation to schedule. Those steps aren’t part of the process, and you’ll use the same online system to manage any rescheduling if needed.
