California Real Estate Salesperson Exam — Fast Facts

• 150 multiple-choice questions
• Passing score: 70% — you must correctly answer at least 105 of 150 questions
• Exam fee: $100

Do the Math Before Test Day

• Target = 70% of 150 = 105 correct. You can miss up to 45 questions and still pass.
• Because it's a straight percentage of a fixed 150-question set, there's no penalty for guessing beyond a missed point — leave nothing blank.
• Pace yourself against 150 items: if you have a fixed time block, divide it by 150 to get your per-question budget and keep moving.

Must-Remember Rules

• $100 fee is the salesperson exam fee — budget for it (plus any separate license/application costs) when planning.
• Aim well above 105 correct on practice tests; a cushion above the 70% line protects you against a few tricky questions on exam day.
• Every question is multiple choice — eliminate obviously wrong options first to raise your odds on items you're unsure of.
