Virginia Real Estate License Guide

All right, if you have made it to this point, you have finished all of your required Virginia real estate license education, you have submitted your application, paid your fees, and all you have left to do is to take the state required final exam. Don’t feel too pressured; you can take the test again. However, I have some great tips here that can help you to pass the test on your first try, just like I did!

OK, so here’s the deal. The test is more than likely going to be standardized, aka multiple choice, and there are some great ways to beat the scan-tron, without cheating.

Let’s take a look:

• Set your alarm on the eve of testing day to early. Show up to the test location early. This will ensure that you aren’t rushed and experience additional stress just getting to the testing center.
• Take a few deep breaths, and pump yourself up. KNOW that you are going to pass. Confidence is crucial here.
• Ask someone at the testing center how much time you have to take the test, and how many questions are on it. Then punch that into your calculator and figure out how much time you have to answer each question.
• When you are taking the test, if you start to go beyond that time amount on any particular question, just answer it, mark the question number on a scratch sheet of paper, and come back to later – if you have time.
• Read each question entirely. Test writers love to throw little words like “no” and “not” in there just to throw you off. These things change the meaning of the question, and thus the answer. Look for these.
• Try to cross off wrong answers when you aren’t sure which one is right. If you can get it down to a choice between 2 answers instead of 4 or 5, you stand a much better chance of getting it right.
• MOST IMPORTANT: Answer all questions. An unanswered question is a wrong answer! Make sure to answer each one, even if it is a complete and total guess.

If you study hard, try to soak up everything you can from the Virginia real estate courses, and follow these simple multiple choice test taking tips, you will be hard pressed to fail. I hope you enjoyed this and let me know what you think by leaving me a comment.
