May 10, 2025 · 5 min read

Georgia's real estate salesperson exam is administered by AMP/PSI at testing centers throughout the state. Here's what to expect.

What to Bring

  • Two valid IDs: One must be government-issued with a photo and signature
  • Exam confirmation number
  • Nothing else — all personal items go in a locker

Acceptable photo IDs: driver's license, state ID, passport, military ID

Testing Center Check-In

  1. Arrive 30 minutes early
  2. Present two IDs
  3. Digital signature and biometric check-in
  4. Store personal items in locker
  5. Receive scratch paper and pencil (or erasable whiteboard)
  6. Seated at computer workstation

You'll have access to an onscreen calculator.

The Exam Structure

  • 100 national questions + 52 Georgia-specific questions = 152 total
  • 4 hours total
  • Questions from both sections are typically presented together (not separated by section)
  • Flag and review: use the flag button to mark uncertain questions and return to them

Pacing

4 hours for 152 questions = approximately 1 minute 35 seconds per question. This is comfortable — Georgia's exam is not time-pressured like New York.

Recommended approach: - First pass: answer known questions immediately (target 60-75 seconds each) - Flag uncertain questions and skip - Second pass: work through flagged questions (you'll have 45-60 minutes remaining) - Final review: verify any answers you want to double-check

Most candidates finish in 2.5-3 hours.

Score Reporting

Your score appears immediately upon submission. You'll see your total score and whether you passed (72% required).

Failed score reports also show your performance by content area — use this to guide your retake study plan.

Retaking the Exam

  • No waiting period between attempts
  • Retake fee: $121 (same as first attempt)
  • You retake the full exam — Georgia does not allow section-by-section retakes

Georgia Exam Strategy

Georgia-specific questions (52 questions): Focus on GREC, BRRETA, designated agency, trust accounts, and Georgia transfer tax. These are the differentiating questions.

National questions (100 questions): Prioritize financing (TRID, loan types), fair housing (7 federal classes), and contracts (essential elements, remedies).

Math: Transfer tax ($1 per $1,000), commission splits, cap rate calculations, and proration (confirm year type on each question).

When uncertain: On Georgia law questions, think "what would protect the public and uphold GREC rules?" — GREC exam questions favor consumer protection and professional accountability.
