-Sam L.

I have officially passed all my exams and am a licensed architect in the state of Oklahoma! Your classes helped a ton and I will continue to refer my friends to your class!

-John F.

I finally passed PPD in November! My last exam. After 10-years and many ARE exam iterations later.

-Adam R.

It's been tough. I passed PDD! Officially done with ARE with 1 week left on my rolling clock 😅 I started in 2016. One good thing to come out of Covid were the rolling clock extensions!

-Angela M.

I just received my license today after passing all of my exams on my first try using hyperfine. It was the most helpful resource I used. Thanks again for your help! I'm recommending it to everyone I know taking the exams. Thanks for creating a comprehensive and affordable test prep option.

-Natasha H.

I recently passed my last ARE exam. Before each exam I would go through your PDFs in rapid fire to refresh the content in my mind. Thank you so much for putting it together! It felt as if you were with me during the tests, because I now know your voice from the video explanations. Your material, Elif Bayram's material and Erik Walker's questions were my go-to. I didn't use the big subscription guys' material. I honestly couldn't afford it. I appreciated the updates to the documents, and I checked them out when they came in.A big thank you!

-Hans-Christian K

Just want to share that I've passed all divisions of the ARE as of 9/4/22. I purchased your course in March 2021 for my birthday. Started testing in September 2021 and finished in September 2022. 5 divisions total (I had a credit for C&E from 4.0). Offering my thanks. The course is gold and absolutely helped me pass these exams. Thanks again.

-Jeremy C.

I was just looking at your website to see if you had any CSE material and I realized how much your study materials and videos helped me throughout the ARE process. I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for always being so responsive and always trying to make your content better. I used your study materials for almost all of my exams. I think after my first exam(PJM) I started using Hyperfine. I finally passed PDD on May 4th and I'm just mustering up the energy now to start studying for my California Supplemental Exam. Thank you so so much!!!

-Aris K

I've passed PcM, PjM, CE, and PA. I just have the two technical exams left (PPD & PDD). 2/3 of the way there!! Thanks for your help. Your course was very helpful in getting me here. 

-Ethan G

I have passed all my exams. Thanks for all these assignments - super helpful!

I just wanted to thank you for your Hyperfine Assignments. I passed PA, PPD and PDD this past year and your course gave me the crucial extra knowledge that I needed. 

-Teddy G.

Just passed PDD and now done!! Finishing your course and going over your content definitely were a huge help. I've recommended you to all my friends still taking exams because it's literally the best resource for me out there.

I passed the PA with your assistance.Thank you for all your assistance with all the divisions. Thank you for assistance with Amber Books. They were not only a great review, assisted in understanding points that I just did not get, and enjoyable to watch and work through, with your help they were affordable. Thank you very very much. Again, thanks Ben, great job.  

-James Y.

Just a quick note to say thanks for the great resources. The practice problems were a key driver in getting me over the hurdle of understanding how to approach the exams. Along with Elif's questions, Boot Camp, and Amber Book, your course was instrumental in me finally finishing up! Thanks for making a great and affordable product.

-Amanda M.

PASSED and am DONE! Thank you!

-Manijeh H.

Thank you for all of your excellent materials! Hyperfine was such a helpful tool to have in my pocket as I studied for the ARE's. I'm happy to announce that I'm all done and looking to help the next upcoming architects at my firm! Thanks again

-Rachel H.

Wanted to thank you for all the work you put into the assignments and study materials for us aspiring exam takers. As of yesterday, I have passed all six divisions of the exams, with your assignments by far the largest segment of my studying habits. Your assignments are the only recommendation I make to fellow candidates, keep up the good work and thanks again for your part in my success.

-Tom M.

I just wanted to reach out and let you know that I passed my final exam today! Thanks for all that you've done. While I can't say that any of the specific information that you provided was a silver bullet to taking down the AREs, the structure you provided was INVALUABLE and made the mountain of work achievable. It was thanks to working your program that I could take things in bite-size chunks. Without your program, I don't think I would have gotten through this nearly as quickly, let alone without failing any tests either!

-Sam B.

I Just wanted to let you know that I passed PPD and PDD and have finished my AREs! Thank you for the Hyperfine study guide and problems; they were a huge help in my studies and a great supplement to my primary study resources. 

-Katie S.

I had my Pcm exam on May 26th and I passed it! Your Hyperfine and your answers to my questions were a great help. Thank you for all the time and effort you put in for me. I couldn't pass it without them and I'll always be thankful to you. I'll get your material again for sure. 

Thank you again

-Sara R.
