Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Pass Rate, Format & Study Guide

A real reference for anyone preparing for the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Examination (national and Georgia portions) — Georgia Real Estate Commission exam — pass rate, retake policy, how it's scored, and a practical study timeline. This is independent reference content, not a sales page: everything below is sourced from Georgia Real Estate Salesperson's own certifying body.

What the Georgia Real Estate Salesperson exam is

The Georgia real estate salesperson examination has 152 multiple-choice questions in 4 hours: a national portion of 100 items and a Georgia portion of 52 items, each scored separately (PSI candidate information booklet). The content outline covers 14 areas, led by Contracts (12.5%). The booklet we read does not state a numeric passing score. This portal's practice mock has 152 questions covering both portions.

Why it matters

Passing the exam is a required step toward a Georgia real estate salesperson license, which you need to represent buyers and sellers for compensation in Georgia.

Who this exam is for

People starting a real estate career in Georgia who have finished their 75-hour prelicense course, and candidates retaking the exam.

Pass rate

The certifying body does not publicly publish an official pass rate for this exam. Be wary of third-party sites citing a specific number here — treat any pass-rate claim you see elsewhere for this exam as unverified.

If you don't pass — retake policy

The booklet says anyone who does not apply for the license within 12 months of passing the exam must retake it. Each exam attempt requires a new examination fee.

How it's scored

The PSI booklet we read does not state a numeric passing score; your score report shows your result for the national and Georgia portions. Confirm the standard with the GREC or PSI. Format: 152 multiple-choice questions in four hours, 100 national and 52 Georgia. No official pass rate is available for this exam, so none is quoted here.

Eligibility requirements, in full

The GREC lists three education routes: the 75-hour salesperson prelicense course at an approved school; at least 10 quarter hours or 6 semester hours of qualifying college coursework with an official transcript sent to PSI; or at least 75 hours of prelicense coursework approved in another state or Canadian province, with a verification letter. You also bring a criminal history or GCIC report to the PSI test center, and the Commission reviews any convictions before it issues a license.

What it actually costs

PSI examination fee $175 and GREC license fee $170 (first four years). The prelicense course is priced by each school and was not confirmed here.

Keeping the credential — maintenance & recertification

New salespersons also complete post-license education in their first year, but this guide did not review the details; check the GREC for current renewal and continuing education rules.

How to actually prepare

Start with the heaviest areas of the content outline: Real Estate Practice in Georgia (13.8%); National: Contracts (12.5%); Georgia State Laws and Rules (10.5%). Then work through the remaining areas, and finish with timed full-length practice runs of 152 questions in one sitting.

What's changing (2026)
