# Virginia Real Estate Exam Practice Questions

The Virginia real estate exam is 120 questions — 80 national and 40 state-specific — administered by PSI with a 150-minute (2.5-hour) time limit. You need 75% on each section: 60 of 80 nationally and 30 of 40 on state. Virginia's exam is notable for its shorter time limit, which makes pacing more important than in most states.
