What the Course Entails and Exam Details

The CE Shop's Georgia Real Estate State Practice Exam provides an intensive review of all core concepts and laws relevant to practicing real estate in the state.

• Real Estate Contracts and Agency Relationships (including specific Georgia requirements).

• Financing, Valuation, and Market Analysis.

• Property Disclosures and Environmental Issues.

• Real Estate Calculations.

• The Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) rules, licensing requirements, and prohibited conduct.

By engaging with this practice exam, you are not only reviewing critical information but also familiarizing yourself with the style and difficulty level of the questions you will face, all within an easily accessible online platform through your CE Shop account.

What to Expect in the Final Exam

The final step to becoming a licensed Georgia Real Estate Salesperson is passing the actual state-administered examination, which is a separate requirement from completing this practice assessment.

The actual Georgia Real Estate Salesperson Exam, typically administered in person at designated testing centers, is structured into two main components: a National section and a state-specific Georgia section.

Here are key details to keep in mind for the final state exam:

• Format: The exam consists entirely of multiple-choice questions.

• Breakdown: You can expect around 100 questions dedicated to national real estate principles and approximately 52 questions focused on Georgia license law and regulations, making for a total of roughly 152 questions.

• Time Limit: Candidates are generally given 4 hours to complete both portions of the examination.

• Passing Score: To succeed, you must achieve a minimum scaled score of 75 on each of the two sections.

• Proctoring: The test is held in a secure, proctored environment to ensure its integrity.

The CE Shop's practice exam is meticulously designed to mimic this experience, helping you understand the structure, timing, and complexity before you walk into the test center.

How to Study and Exam Centers

To maximize your score and ensure success, approach your studying strategically. We recommend taking the practice exam multiple times, using it as a diagnostic tool after initial study and then again to simulate real-world conditions.

Here are actionable study tips:

1. Analyze Your Results: Carefully review the detailed explanations for every question in the practice exam, especially those you answered incorrectly, to identify and bridge knowledge gaps.

2. Focus Your Review: Use the insights gained from the practice exam to focus your study time on specific weak areas in your core pre-license course material.

3. Simulate Test Conditions: Take at least one full practice exam under a strict time constraint to build stamina and practice effective time management for the actual test day.

4. Utilize Flashcards: Create or use digital flashcards for key terms, legal concepts, and Georgia-specific regulations.

5. Review Course Materials Regularly: Consistency is key; make a regular study schedule and stick to it, integrating various study methods.

Regarding taking the exams:

• Practice Exam: This specific practice assessment is accessed online through your The CE Shop student portal at your convenience.

• Final State Exam: The actual Georgia State Real Estate Exam is not taken online or through The CE Shop's portal directly for your final score. It is administered by an authorized third-party testing provider, typically PSI, at physical testing centers. Common test locations include cities like Duluth, Savannah, Macon, and Marietta.

You will need to register for the final exam separately through the testing provider's website (e.g., psiexams.com), after your pre-license education has been completed and certified by your school. Be sure to check the exact registration steps, fees, and location availability on the official website of the Georgia Real Estate Commission and the chosen testing provider.
