State Exams vs National Exams Explained
Which state has the hardest real estate exam is debatable, but most of them have a similar structure. They are almost always multiple choice tests with a state portion and a national portion.
Many people are surprised to find that the real estate exam is broken out into essentially two tests, but the structure makes sense given that there are nationwide and local state laws that have to be followed.

Real Estate Exam State Portion
The state portion is specific to where you are getting licensed. The focus will be on:- Local real estate laws and regulations
- Disclosure requirements
- Licensing requirements
- Definitions as per state law
- State governing bodies
- Agency relationships
- State fair housing laws
- State closing process
Real Estate Exam National Portion
Real estate is local, but there are a number of national regulations that affect the industry across the country. There are also a number of common real estate practices that are used from state to state. Topics covered on the national portion of a real estate exam often include:- Contracts
- Financing
- General principles of agency
- Land use controls and regulations
- Leasing and property management
- Practice of real estate
- Property disclosures
- Property ownership
- Real estate calculations
- Transfer of title
- Valuation and market analysis
What to Know About Proctoring and Testing Centers
Some states, like California, have their own dedicated testing centers, but that practice is changing. Today many states don’t administer real estate licensing exams on their own. What usually happens is a third-party company is hired to oversee the process from scheduling to score reporting. It’s a process known as proctoring.
Third-party test administrators are in charge of:
Two of the largest third-party test administrators are PSI Exams and Pearson VUE.
There will be multiple testing centers across the state. Typically, you have to select a specific testing center when scheduling your test. Rarely, the state will assign the location (usually the closest location to your address) or give you the option to let the state assign a location to speed up the scheduling process.
Third-party test administrators are in charge of:
- Helping create a computer-based test
- Securing testing centers
- Providing test-taking equipment
- Administering and overseeing the exams
- Immediately scoring tests
- Providing a pass/fail report

How to Pass a Real Estate Exam in 5 Steps
Step 1. Use a Course Provider With Good Pass Rates
Increase your odds of passing by choosing a real estate course that’s going to properly prepare you for the exam with adequate, up-to-date information that’s taught in an engaging way. What you learn in the course should include all the material that’s on the exam.Step 2. Pay Close Attention During the Courses
Students that are focused and giving the course their full attention are going to retain more information. So save yourself some study time by soaking it in during the course.Step 3. Read Through the Test Administrator’s Exam Guide
Test administrators like Pearson VUE create state-specific exam guides with detailed breakdowns of what’s required to take a state real estate exam, what to bring on test day, how the test will be administered and more. There’s also a section on exam topics with example questions.Step 4. Take Practice Tests
Practice makes perfect! There are a lot of different study methods, but for the majority of students, practice tests are the most effective way to prep. They help you practice recalling information, can reveal what you need to study and give you an idea of what to expect from a test-taking perspective when you sit down for the real exam.And at Aceable practice tests are included with your course so there’s no need to buy additional exam prep materials!
Step 5. Get Mentally Prepared for Test Day
What you do in the hours before the exam makes a real difference. It all starts by getting a good night’s sleep. Getting a solid eight hours of sleep will ensure you’re mentally sharp and not distracted by exhaustion.It’s also important to give yourself ample time to get to the testing center and get settled. Feeling rushed will increase your stress levels, and amping up your anxiety level before a test is never good. Getting there early will give you a chance to take a breather before hours of test-taking.
