Real Estate Exam Score Calculator

Your score is calculated by dividing the number of correct answers by the total number of questions, then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. For example, if you answer 85 out of 120 questions correctly, your score is 70.83%. Most states require a score of 70–75% to pass.

Passing scores vary by state but typically fall between 70% and 75%. Some states have separate passing thresholds for the national and state portions of the exam. Always check your specific state's real estate commission website for the exact requirement.

The number of questions varies by state. Most state licensing exams include between 100 and 150 questions total, split between a national portion (covering general real estate principles) and a state-specific portion. For example, Florida's exam has 100 questions, while California's has 150.

If you fail, you can retake the exam after a waiting period, which varies by state (typically 24 hours to a few weeks). Most states allow unlimited retakes, though some require you to retake a pre-licensing course after multiple failures. Use this calculator to identify exactly how many more correct answers you need.

Focus on the topics where you consistently miss questions — national content areas like contracts, agency, and financing are common weak spots. Practice with timed mock exams, use flashcards for vocabulary, and review state-specific laws thoroughly. Many students improve significantly after targeted review of their weakest areas.

Yes. You can use the Exam Section selector to calculate your score for the full combined exam, the national portion only, or the state portion only. Just enter the total questions and your correct answers for the section you're evaluating.

The passing threshold determines whether your score is a pass or a fail, and how many additional correct answers you would need. Since this threshold differs by state, entering your state's specific requirement ensures the calculator gives you accurate pass/fail feedback and improvement targets.

This calculator gives you an exact score percentage based on the numbers you enter — it is as accurate as the inputs you provide. If you are using it with practice exam results, keep in mind that actual exam difficulty may vary. Consistently scoring 5–10% above the passing threshold on practice exams is a strong indicator of exam readiness.
