Amber Book Online Course - Looking for a sign-up partner(s)

Postby Hans » Sun Nov 16, 2014 9:53 am

Anyone on the forum interested in taking Michael Ermann's Online A.R.E. Building Systems Prep Seminar in the next couple weeks?

He offers the course for $395 and he states that the course is meant to replace studying for this exam (rather than supplementing it).

There is a $100 discount for each "friend" who signs up for the course together - is anyone interested in signing up with me to take advantage of the discount?

I am actually very interested in this, I'm just trying to learn more about the actual course. I emailed the address to see if I could get more information. I watched the preview which looks great, and if it's all like that I might go for it. I'm just wondering if other people have had success with this online course since it's relatively new. I took the test a few months ago and failed 3 sections. I'm hoping this will make the difference for me.

MVARG,

I had a study session this past Saturday with someone that purchased the online course. They failed BS on the first attempt but said after taking the Amber Book Online courses felt they should have done that the first time. I was able to watch a few minutes of several videos, I was able to understand concepts from the video that I did not understand prior, even thought I had read the information multiple times in Ballast.

I take BS Dec 1 so I would like to purchase the course ASAP.

If we purchase at the same time, do we have to watch at the same time too? I'd be interested in purchasing soon but just not sure what my testing time frame is yet. I'd like to do it soon but don't want to rush. Let me know what you think.

Just read that we don't have to do it at the same time. Can 3 people buy it together? I'm down to do it soon.

Matt,

Ok kool! I believe they can per what I read in an earlier group post on ARE Coach. How soon do you plan to sign up. I need to sign up within the next couple days. Would this work for you?

Ballast wasn't enough, IMO. Kaplan focused on too many equations. Prof. Ermann's seminars were just right. I took the exam a week after completing the series. The remaining time before my exam, I went over MEEB and reviewed the Amber Book. I passed the exam. Some people pass just using the recommended study materials. But if you need to be ready in a short amount of time I definitely recommend the online course.

I found someone that is ready to sign up today. Please inbox me your name and email address so I can forward to Ermann so we all receive the discount.

Thanks!

If more than one person signs up together, they get the discount and do not have to start at the same time or watch at the same time.

I took the seminar in NYC over the summer. It is FANTASTIC!!!!! It is the only going you need to study. I can't vouch for the online version but Ermann knows his stuff so I can't imagine it is not good. Tested four days later and passed with NO additional studying before or after.

If there's anyone who is interested in the Amber online course that hasn't signed up with a partner yet, I'm looking for someone (or a group) to sign up with me so that we can take advantage of the discount. PM me or use this thread if so. Thanks!

Just got a pass on PPP (done with CDS and SPD), BS next on the list. New to the BS posts, so still doing my research, but interested in joining up with someone for the online discount. I went to the website, but don't see any info on the discount. Can someone who signed up together explain how this works in terms of time-frame etc?

@mvarg: I'm thinking along the same lines as you, I will pm you to see if we are on a similar time line.

There is a $100 discount per video for all orders of two or more so if you have a friend who is interested, you EACH receive $100 off, and you don’t need to start your three week video access window simultaneously. You and your friend will be billed separately so you don’t have to gather the money for everyone. Good luck on the exam.

Dmh01 :

Yah. I signed up a week or so ago with another person and have to say it's totally worth it. There are a few things here and there with the video production, but the content is SOLID. And there is a lot of explanation on things that some folks (myself included) find confusing. He really recommends that you take the exam as soon as possible after watching/studying the content in the videos. I test next week.

About 5 percent of the course can be accessed on YouTube. Search Youtube for "professorermann" to access the channel. For the rest of the course, go to the arebuildingsystems website. Good luck on the exam.

Hi Professor,

I have tired to listen the 3 free videos you provide on this forum, and the youtube has the function to provide the automatic subtitle of those videos.

I am interested in enrolling the online video courses, but because I am not a native speaker so I want to know if I watch the video from your website instead of the youtube, can I get the subtitle for that?
