Quote from @Tim Ryan:

First thing I'd like to share is that getting your RE license and becoming a RE investor are two completely different things. You probably know that. You'll still need investor training as the license won't teach you investing.

Now I will give you the best advice for your test taking: 

You will have the sample questions at the end of chapters and end of book. Or buy some tests. What you need to do is read the question - then flip back immediately to the right answer page - see the answer (say it's B) - go back to the question and ONLY read B. Then go to the next question.

If you do this over and over and ONLY read the correct answer then ONLY the correct answer will be in your head the day of the test. Think about when you have taken tests and you are just not sure as several answers seem correct... that's because you read all the answers, wrong ones too.

I've done this on three Big test (one being RE Licence) I finish the fastest, the scorer tells me to make sure and take more time, I say I don't need to, then this person tells me I aced the test.

You'll thank me. Oh, and just skim read all the chapters, you'll literally learn more just by knowing all the answers...

I never really thought about it that way as far as  reading/ re-reading the correct answers vs. just reading everything.  That really makes sense and I will definitely be doing that.  Thank you for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate it.  Thank you!

Purchase the crammer course through hondros or whichever school you took your classes through, it's helpful in narrowing down the information for both state and national

I will do that.  Thanks for the tip!

tips.

When taking the test do the math questions last.. and don't worry if you are not good at math there is usually only a few.. in fact when I have taken the brokers tests in 3 states I don't even do the math I just mark C..  bone up on Agency and law .. that's 50% or better of the test.
also you will have a bunch of practice questions memorize answers.. many times they are verbatim.

Getting the license is just like getting a license to fly.. once you have it now you have a license to learn the craft.. the tests do not teach you to fly and they don't teach you how to be an agent.


 Thank you, I really appreciate the tips because it's so much information and I just want to be focusing on the right material.  Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction

Hello, my name is Lalania and I'm fairly new to Real Estate/Investment so I'm currently educating myself.  I'm also studying for the R.E. exam right now and I was wondering if anyone had some tips or advice to give?  Thank you!
