California CSLB Law and Business Exam exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The CSLB Law and Business exam is the written law and business examination that applicants for most California contractor licenses must pass. It is issued by the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) and administered by PSI Services LLC. The exam is taken on a computer, is multiple choice, and gives you 3.5 hours (CSLB examination FAQ); the number of questions is listed in your Notice to Schedule. This portal's practice mock has 115 questions. The CSLB examination FAQ does not state a passing score, which is given with your exam materials, so none is quoted here. A search extract of CSLB fee information lists a US$450 application fee and an examination fee of US$51.43; the CSLB fee list is the authority. The content outline spreads questions across 7 areas; the largest are Contract Requirements and Execution (21.0%); Employment Requirements (20.0%); Business Finances (15.0%). CSLB sets the experience, application and fee requirements for each contractor license class; applications are valid for 18 months from acceptance to pass the exams; confirm the current requirements with the CSLB before you apply. This portal prepares you for the Law and Business exam; it does not replace the trade exam for your license class, the experience requirements or the CSLB application.
