What To Do When You Fail The North Carolina Real Estate Exam in Asheville

     If you have recently failed the North Carolina real estate exam, you are in good company.  Forty six per cent of the real estate license applicants that took the North Carolina real estate exam last month failed. http://rondclimer.blogspot.com/2017/11/pass-fail-statistics-for-north-carolina.html

     Here is the part that I do not understand.  Why don't these applicants that fail the exam ask for help?  It costs $164 to take the exam for the second time.  There are 140 questions on  the North Carolina real estate exam in Asheville.  You have to answer 35 or more questions incorrectly in order to fail.  Do you suppose that, when you come back with your $164 re entry pass, you may see the same questions again? 

Read this if you might fail the North Carolina real estate exam

     That makes sense to me.  If that is true and it is true, may I suggest something that may help you pass the second time.  FYI it costs $164 the third time also.

     Before you leave your car in the parking lot of the exam site, put a legal pad or recorder on the seat of your car.  When you return with a failure notice in your hand, start writing down or recording questions that you saw but did not know the answer to.

     If you saw a question that said, "How many members are on the North Carolina Real Estate Commission?", you know that there are nine members so you do not need to write that down.  On the other hand, maybe you should write it down .  Check your notes and be certain that nine is the right answer. Also, you saw another question that said," How many members of the N.C.R.E.C. must be real estate brokers?".  You remember the question but you did not know the answer.  Do you want to go back to take the exam again at $164 per opportunity without knowing the answer to this question?  Would it make sense to write that question down?  Be certain that you know the answer when you go back.  That certainly makes sense to me.

     If I missed 35 questions on my exam, I believe that I would be able to remember most of the ones that I did not know.  Write them down before you leave the parking lot of the exam site.  Get the answers to those questions.  How can you get the answer?  I can think of several ways.  Call me.  I will tell you the answer.  Call your classmates.  I assume that you have the contact information of your classmates.  Call one of them and ask her, "How many members of the N.C.R.E.C. must be real estate brokers?".  "Why do you ask?"  your classmate replies.  "Oh. I was just curious."  you say.  You would not want to discuss the North Carolina real estate exam with someone that is taking it tomorrow.  Would you?

Some how, some way you need to get the answers to these questions.  Your next North Carolina real estate exam will be very similar to your last one.  Before you leave the parking lot of the real estate  test center, take your text book.  Thumb through the table of contents and remind yourself:
There was a question about joint tenancy   

Itt is hard to overstudy for the North Carolina real estate exam

There was a question about TRID
There was a question about CFPB
There was a question about dual agency
There was a question about adjusted basis
There was a question about matched pair analysis

Get the answers to these questions before you go back.

     Who seemed to be the smartest student in your class?  I would surely want to have that person's phone number.  I would call that person and ask him,"What do we call that metal stuff that wraps around the chimney?". ( If you know the answer to this one, please leave it in the comments. )

     If there were real estate math questions on the test that you did not know how to do, I have them posted on You Tube.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6P5FEpnxt0

In Hendersonville, What To Do When You Graduate from Real Estate School

     You have done the hard part.  You have graduated from real estate school in Hendersonville, North Carolina.  Last month, only 59% of the real estate exam applicants passed the North Carolina real estate exam.  Read my previous article. 

     A career opportunity is calling to you.  Please come interview with us at Keller Williams Realty at 404 S. Main Street in Hendersonville. 

     You remember, in real estate class, we learned how to compute commissions.  The commission split between the company and the new rookie real estate broker is not the same everywhere.  At Keller Williams Realty, we pay an ambitious new real estate broker or an experienced veteran real estate broker the same way.  The new person starts at 70% of the commission that she generates.  This split goes to 100%.  Call me if you need more details.  My phone is 828 755 6996 . 

     A most important concern that a new real estate broker should have is about training.  Keller Williams Mountain Partners will train a new real estate broker better than than they can possibly get trained anywhere else. 

     We have a basic training class that we call "Ignite".  You will learn prospecting skills and presentation skills and personal skills.  You will learn how to do all the paper work and other work that it really takes to get a transaction from "Hello" to closing.  "Ignite" is extraordinary to say the least. 

It starts at First Real Estate School

     Keller Williams has a plethora of advanced training and technical training.  No industry has been changed more than real estate by technology.  I mentioned paper work in the previous paragraph.  We don't use paper anymore. We still call it paperwork.  The way real estate business is done is rapidly changing.  Methods that worked like a charm yesterday are obsolete today.  Technology training is essential and constant. 

     A pleasant work environment is a bonus at Keller Williams on Main Street in Hendersonville .  Our business philosophy is the wall paper in the lobby.  Win win permeates all of our relationships at Keller Williams.  Agents help each other.  Agents help buyers to find their dream home.  Agents help sellers to get on to the next house.  Hendersonville's Keller Williams office is a very nice place to work and start a new real estate career. 

     If you are a ambitious new real estate broker, we want to talk with you.  If you are an experienced veteran Realtor that is looking for a new home, we want to talk with you.  Call me at 828 755 6996.

     I am waiting for your call.  If you don't have a real estate license yet, we can help you with that.  www.firstrealestateschool.com   Also, Keller Williams will pay your tuition.  Watch this video for those details.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1EpyxI_Gkg&t=49s  If you are looking for a great place to start or continue a real estate career, contact me.

Pass Fail Statistics for The North Carolina Real Estate Exam in October 2017

     How difficult is the North Carolina Real Estate exam?   In October of 2017,  six hundred and three real estate license applicants attempted this difficult exam. Three hundred and twenty seven passed.  That is a fifty four per cent pass rate.  Two hundred and seventy four real estate license applicants will be paying $164 to the North Carolina Real Estate Commission to try again.

     How do these repeat test takers fare?  In October, forty one test takers took the national portion of the North Carolina real estate exam for the second or third or fourth time.  Twenty six of these applicants passed.  Two hundred forty three real estate license applicants took the North Carolina portion of the real estate exam for the second or third or fifth time at $164 per attempt.  That is a 59% pass rate.  This test is not easy.  This test is not inexpensive.

     If you are soon taking the North Carolina real estate exam, study like there is a $164 prize if you make 100% .  Study like you want to make a 100%.  Most people study like they want to make a 75%.  If you barely passed your real estate school exam, you had better study a lot more for the North Carolina real estate exam.

     What can you do??  Let's start with the easy stuff.  You can watch my free real estate math videos on You Tube.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMdJ-2iHepM&t=23s   Real estate math is 15% of the North Carolina real estate exam.  If you can not do the math, that is a pretty big handicap.  There is no math on the North Carolina real estate exam that I do not have posted on You Tube.  There is really no excuse for NOT knowing how to do any problem that you encounter.  Do not expect to pass the North Carolina real estate exam if you can not do the math.  Watching my free You Tube videos is, by far, the easiest way to learn the math.  Invite you classmates over.  Cook some popcorn.  Watch math videos.

     Another thing that anyone can do to be certain that you pass your North Carolina real estate exam the first time is read your textbook.  You may have passed your real estate school test without reading your textbook about agency and deeds and contracts and fair housing.  You are unlikely to pass the North Carolina real estate exam without reading the textbook.  Have you answered all the questions in the back of the chapters?  If not, I suggest that you do before paying $164 to take the North Carolina real estate exam.

Pass your North Carolina real estate exam the FIRST time

     Did you buy the book," Guide to Passing the AMP Real Estate Exam" ?  It is published by Dearborn, the same people that publishes your textbook.  Will it help?  It has almost a thousand questions written in the same format that the North Carolina real estate exam questions are written in. Yes, it will help.  You can buy it from your instructor or you can find it it on my website at www.firstrealestateschool.com   If you did nothing but read the glossary of this book, it would help you pass the North Carolina real estate exam.  

     What else can you do to insure that you will pass the North Carolina real estate exam the first time?  Take my one hundred  question practice exam at www.ncreexam.com  .  This is, not only, a practice exam.  It has a video explanation of why the answers are the answers.  Check this out.  If you do not pass my practice exam, you will likely not pass the real thing. 

     Study.  Study.  Study.  Many people fail the North Carolina real estate exam by a  point or two.  Those people pay $164 to take the test again.  An equal amount of people probably pass by a point or two.  Those people are issued a real estate license and start a new career.  In which group do you want to be? 

    OH, I almost forgot.  In October, ninety three Realtors from other states attempted to get a North Carolina real estate license by taking a forty question North Carolina only test.  Thirty four of these applicants passed.  That is a 37% pass rate.  Almost all of these test takers mistakenly believed that what they knew from their home state would help them pass this exam.  If you want to know what is on this test, take my practice test at www.ncreexam.com for North Carolina only.

In North Carolina, if you have an active license in another state, you do not have to attend a North Carolina real estate school.  Check out the details at www.ncrec.gov .  All you have to do is PASS a forty question exam.  That seems simple enough.  In September, 2017,  eighty two attempts by out of state licensees yielded twenty seven successful applicants.   That is a 33% success rate.

If you are soon taking this test, use my practice test as practice www.ncreexam.com The biggest problem that out of state people have is the false belief that what they know from their home state will help them with this North Carolina only exam.  What is the likelihood that an out of state applicants would know how many members are on the North Carolina Real Estate Commission?  How many of those members have to be real estate brokers?   There is little or nothing that they learned in their home state that will help them on this exam.

The Cure For Test Anxiety When Taking The North Carolina Real Estate Exam.

The North Carolina real estate exam is tomorrow.  You are nervous.  What can you do?

You can take out your 500 flash cards and go through a couple hundred of them.  You can turn the T.V. off.

You can listen to the audio program that you bought from your real estate instructor.  You can watch some of the free You Tube videos that show you how to do the math in great detail.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMdJ-2iHepM  .  You can go over some of the acronyms that your instructor has taught you like OLDCAR and FRESHCORN and COLIC etc.

You can write down Vendor with a synonym and Vendee with a synonym.  You can write down Optionor with a synonym and Optionee with a synonym.  You can write down Mortgagor with a synonym and Mortgagee with a synonym. 

Eliminate test anxiety with study study study

You can go over my practice exam at www.ncreexam.com  one more time.  You can also re do all the practice tests in the text book one more time.  You can call one of your classmates on the phone and ask each other questions like, "What is the Conner Act?" and " What is the Machinery Act?" and " What are the eight protected classes under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act?" .  If you don't want to call your classmate, you could ask your spouse or teenager to ask you these questions from the things that you have highlighted in your book.  Calling your classmate seems like a better idea to me.

You could read the glossary in the back of the textbook one more time.

Let me suggest a few things that will not help with your North Carolina real estate test anxiety.
Watching  T.V. will not help.  Video games and Facebook is a waste of time.

Over study.  Study constantly.  Last month in North Carolina, fifty seven per cent of the people that paid $$$$ to take the North Carolina real estate exam passed.  Forty three per cent of those real estate license applicants will be paying $164 to take the exam again.  If $164 is a lot of money to you, study study study.

Test anxiety is a myth.  When you know the material, there is nothing about which to be anxious.

At First Real Estate School in Hendersonville, I sell a book, "Guide to Passing the AMP Real Estate Exam"  to my students.  It is a wonderful study aid.  It takes all the information in your eight hundred page textbook and condenses it to the essentials.  It has a killjillian practice test questions.  It has questions like,"What do we call a claim that casts doubt on the title to a property?".  Most of my students buy this book.  Some of them choose to save that $30.  My advice is to spend $30 to save $164 and a bunch of test anxiety.

Pass the North Carolina real estate exam the first time.  If you are near Hendersonville, North Carolina, First Real Estate School would love to help you pass your exam the first time and relieve your test anxiety.  Contact us at www.firstrealestateschool.com .   or 828 440 1064.
