Pass Fail Statistics for the North Carolina Real Estate Exam in May of 2019

     In May of 2019, six hundred and forty eight real estate license applicants took the comprehensive North Carolina real estate exam for the first time.  Three hundred and eighty two of those test takers passed both halves of the comprehensive real estate exam.  The other two hundred and sixty six real estate license applicants will be paying $164 to try again before they get their North Carolina real estate license.  That is a 59% pass rate.

     In May, one hundred sixteen license applicants took the comprehensive exam for the second time or third time or fourth time.  Twenty three of them passed.  That is a twenty two per cent success rate.  Ninety three of those repeat test takers will be paying $164 to try one more time.
Pass the North Carolina real estate exam the first time

     This news may give you a distorted picture of the North Carolina real estate exam.  The North Carolina real estate exam is a two part exam.  Eighty questions are the "national" portion.  Ninety two per cent of the comprehensive test takers passed the "national" portion.  On the "North Carolina" portion, which is forty questions, the pass rate was sixty percent.  You have to pass both halves to get a North Carolina real estate license.  It costs $164 to try again.

     Apparently, more people fail the "North Carolina" portion that the "national" portion.  Here is a study tip if you are soon taking the North Carolina real estate exam.  On the "North Carolina" portion of the exam, over half the questions come from Appendix A (aka "The Comments") in your textbook.  You must read "the Comments" if you intend to pass the North Carolina real estate exam.

     If you find it just too boring to read, listen to me read it on You Tube.  Here is a link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaPLEyKzX24&t=135s   It is seven videos.  It is not exciting.  It is not fun.  There are no pictures.  The material in "The Comments" is on the North Carolina portion of the North Carolina real estate exam.

     If you want to know if you are ready for the North Carolina real estate exam, take my practice test at www.ncreexam.com .  If you are not making a ninety per cent on my practice exam, take it again until you are.  Study the chapters on agency.  Read the two T contract.  Know what the Conner Act is.  Know what the Machinery Act is.  Know how many members are on the NCREC.  Know the information that is in "The Comments".  It costs $164 to take the test again.

     If you need any help with the North Carolina math, I have it all posted on You Tube.  Put my name Ron Climer North Carolina math into the search bar at You Tube.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaPLEyKzX24&t=135s
