What the Course Entails and Exam Details

This comprehensive practice exam mirrors the material covered in the qualifying "Law of Contracts" course.

The core curriculum and the accompanying exam cover a wide range of topics mandated by the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC).

You will face questions regarding the fundamentals of contract law, including the elements required to create a valid and enforceable contract.

Specific focus is given to the Texas Real Estate License Act (TRELA) and the rules established by TREC.

You must master the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) and its application to real estate transactions.

The course places immense importance on the correct usage of TREC-promulgated and approved forms, such as the widely-used One-to-Four Family Residential Contract (Resale).

Other critical subjects include the statute of frauds, contract contingencies, amendments, addenda, and real estate financing methods.

Finally, you will be tested on the various remedies available for breaches of contract, including specific performance and liquidated damages.

 What to Expect in the Final Exam

While this is a practice exam, it is constructed to provide a realistic testing environment that prepares you for the actual licensing exam administered by Pearson VUE.

The final licensing exam itself is split into state and national portions, and "Law of Contracts" is a significant sub-section of the Texas-specific portion.

Typically, you can expect the actual state exam to be entirely multiple-choice.

You will have a generous time limit, often around 90 minutes for the state-specific section, although "Law of Contracts" is only one part of that.

To pass the actual Texas Real Estate Sales Agent exam, you must achieve a passing score of at least 70% on each section.

For this practice exam, we strongly encourage you to treat it like the real thing by timing yourself and minimizing distractions.

 How to Study and Exam Centers

The key to succeeding on this practice exam and the actual test is a strategic and actionable study plan.

Start by comprehensively reviewing all textbooks, class notes, and materials provided by Champions School of Real Estate.

Use active recall techniques, such as creating digital or physical flashcards for all legal terms, TREC rules, and form-specific clauses.

Repeatedly take this practice exam until you are consistently scoring well above the required passing percentage.

Analyze every question you answer incorrectly, digging deep into the explanations to understand the legal reasoning behind the correct response.

You can access the practice exam through the online student portal at Champions School of Real Estate.

When you are ready for the actual Texas licensing exam, you must register through TREC and schedule your test at a Pearson VUE testing center.

Pearson VUE operates numerous physical testing centers throughout Texas and across the United States.

Some real estate schools and universities may also be authorized to serve as testing centers, so check your local options.

Online proctored exams may also be available under specific circumstances and guidelines set by TREC.
