California Real Estate Broker Exam — Cheat Sheet

The three numbers you must know cold:

• 200 questions — all multiple choice.
• 75% to pass — you must answer 75% of the questions correctly.
• $150 exam fee for the broker exam.

Pass Math (memorize this)

• 75% of 200 = 150 correct answers needed to pass.
• That leaves a margin of 50 questions you can miss (200 − 150).

Quick-Reference Table

• Format: Multiple choice
• Total questions: 200
• Passing threshold: 75%
• Minimum correct: 150
• Exam fee: $150

Must-Remember Rules

• There's no partial credit — each of the 200 items is scored right or wrong, so pace yourself to reach every question.
• Aim comfortably above the 150-correct floor; targeting ~160+ gives a safety buffer against a few tricky items.
• Budget the $150 fee per attempt when planning retakes.
