Hey, Fhanillia. Help us put it in perspective, OK? What will you do with your license, once you get it? Be an agent? Use it to support your investing career? Reason I say that is because a license is not required to be successful in investing. So if you never get it, you are not stopped in your goals. And if you get it, it is more of an expense than an asset for a while, and you can always try again. So keep the failure down in size, it's just a fact, doesn't define you. We all fail at stuff, it means we are trying.

Now, to passing: get a partner who cares about you, and is smart. Take the parts you struggle with, and (this is key) EXPLAIN them to someone else until you both share understanding of the small topic. That will re-wire your brain a bit, and you will sort it out. If you can't explain something, talk about it with the person, until you do. Go Google it for some other approach to the topic, if the text you're using isn't clear. Ask an agent friend for help understanding if you still don't get it.  But teaching a topic is the best way to master it.

If you can't find a partner, then write out your own explanations, to yourself. You're still doing the same teaching, but not as effectively, since no feedback.

That's my tip. I almost always pass tests like these, my whole long life, and miss either none or just a couple, so I know what I am talking about! This works!

Simply stop the stressing.  Don't over prep for the test.  Running through the practice test is great.  Take your time on the test....if you catch a question you are unsure of...move onto the next question and double back for the harder ones.  It's probably a computer exam now so I'm not sure if you can double back.  If you can't, with multiple choice, you always eliminate a couple of answers right off the bat.  At that point, you're narrowing the odds.  With all of the prep you are doing....you will pass it just fine this time!  so no worries.

For me, it was about understanding the concept. I noticed that I was given more scenarios to see if I understood the concept of what was needed. My suggestion to is focus on the concept and purpose of each subject matter and how it manifests in real estate...
