Missouri Real Estate Practice Exam

Missouri salesperson candidates take a national section and a Missouri state section during one computer-based appointment administered by PSI. The national portion includes 100 scored multiple-choice questions with 150 minutes allowed. The Missouri state portion includes 40 scored multiple-choice questions with 120 minutes allowed. You must achieve at least 70% on the national section and at least 75% on the state section to pass. Each portion is scored independently, so a strong national performance cannot offset a failing Missouri-law result. PSI may include five to ten unscored experimental questions that do not count toward your score but do count against your time. Results display on screen when you finish, and PSI emails a practice test score report if you fail either section.

PSI splits the Missouri salesperson exam into a national real estate principles portion and a Missouri state law portion. Because each portion has its own passing threshold, weak performance on either section fails the attempt regardless of the other score.

• National portion (100 scored items): property ownership, land use controls, valuation, financing, contracts, agency, property disclosures, transfer of title, practice of real estate, and real estate calculations per PSI's national content outline.
• Missouri state portion (40 scored items): general MREC rules, license applications and renewals, broker-salesperson relationships, business conduct and practices, disciplinary proceedings, and brokerage relationships including dual agency disclosure.
• High-weight Missouri topics: business conduct and practices carries 17 of 40 state items, covering advertising, listings, earnest money handling, standard forms, closing statements, and commission rules.
• Study priority: drill national math and financing concepts under the 150-minute national limit, then block separate time for MREC licensing law, agency disclosure duties, and earnest-money dispute rules on the 40-item state outline.

License exams test how Missouri statutes, commission rules, and candidate bulletins interact. Use the Statutes and regulations links on this page for primary sources, then confirm live fees and outlines with the regulator before you schedule.

• Missouri Real Estate Commission
• Missouri Real Estate Practice Course handbook
• Missouri Real Estate Commission statutes (RSMo 339)
• PSI Missouri real estate candidate bulletin

Missouri salesperson candidates must complete MREC education before PSI testing and finish MREP before licensure. Review the current PSI Candidate Information Bulletin and MREC application instructions before applying because fees and processing rules can change.

• Be at least 18 years old when you apply for a Missouri salesperson license.
• Complete a 48-hour pre-exam salesperson course from an MREC-accredited Missouri real estate school and earn a Certificate of Satisfactory Completion on or before your exam date. Active members in good standing of the Missouri Bar are exempt from the 48-hour course (RSMo 339.040).
• Pass both the national and Missouri state exam portions, then complete the 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice Course (MREP) before submitting your license application. MREP may be taken before or after the exam.
• Submit your complete license application within six months of finishing the 48-hour pre-exam course. If you pass one exam section at a sitting and the other later, submit within six months of your first passing section score.
• Register with PSI at test-takers.psiexams.com/more, pay the $52 examination fee (covering one or both portions), and arrive 15 minutes early with valid government-issued photo identification matching your PSI registration exactly.
• PSI registration fees are non-refundable and expire one year after payment if you do not test. MREC license application fees and course tuition are separate costs listed on pr.mo.gov.

The State plan unlocks unlimited blueprint-matched simulated exams, exam-day simulation, weak-topic mastery drills, spaced-repetition flashcards, and adaptive custom practice against the Missouri question bank for twelve months from activation. The State + National plan adds the national bank with combined practice, the AI tutor grounded in the Missouri product manual, and the pass-or-refund guarantee for eligible buyers. Access is English only. Renewal is manual (no automatic billing). A 7-day no-questions-asked refund policy applies. Prices and offer feature lists render from the shared catalog on this page.

Read the PSI content outlines first, then drill national concepts such as contracts, agency, and financing under timed conditions that respect the 150-minute national limit. Block separate study time for Missouri business conduct rules, brokerage relationship disclosure under RSMo 339.710 to 339.860, earnest money handling, and standard-form requirements because those topics dominate the 40-item state portion. Start the free Missouri practice test on this page for a short email-gated readiness snapshot, then continue into unlimited blueprint-matched practice if you purchase Missouri exam prep. If you pass one section but fail the other, schedule a retake for only the failed section and pay the $52 examination fee again. Pair paid drills with MREC rules and the current PSI outlines rather than treating any practice set as the live exam.

Use your passing score report within the published windows: complete the 24-hour MREP course if you have not already, then submit your complete MREC license application within six months of finishing the 48-hour pre-exam course (or within six months of your first passing section score when portions are passed at separate sittings). Application instructions arrive with your passing score report, and MREC lists current application fees and fingerprint-based background check steps on pr.mo.gov. Keep the PSI bulletin and MREC application pages bookmarked because exam and license charges are billed separately.

An active member in good standing of the Missouri Bar is exempt from the 48-hour salesperson pre-examination course and may sit for the exam without it, though the 24-hour MREP course is still required for licensure (RSMo 339.040 and the PSI bulletin). Under Missouri's brokerage-relationships law, a designated agent is one or more affiliated licensees named by a designated broker to represent a specific client to the exclusion of the firm's other licensees, which keeps properly designated in-house representation from becoming dual agency (RSMo 339.820 and 339.750). A broker may keep a limited amount of the broker's own funds in the trust account to cover bank service charges, not to exceed $1,000, without commingling (RSMo 339.105).
