I used Black Spectacles to prepare for my last two exams PPD and PDD, which I passed both in March 2021. I found Black Spectacles' Practice Exams, ARE Community Practice Quizzes, and Virtual Workshops extremely helpful. I highly recommend participating in the Virtual Workshops (if available through your subscription type) because I found talking through practice problems with others during the virtual workshops helped reinforce my understanding of specific material or led me to know what I needed to further study. Best of Luck!

The best practice exam experiences out there and more lecture videos you can ask for. I used it to study for all 6 ARE divisions. The dashboard is mobile-friendly which made it great for reviewing flash cards on the go.

I have used black spectacles to pass all of my exams so far. The videos are very intuitive and the content is put into perspective with great real-world examples. I would highly recommend this to anyone studying for the ARE. Well worth the cost if you use it.
