Enrollment open: 19,674 questions covering all 15 areas of PSI’s official New Jersey salesperson outline. Enroll today and start with the free sample exam.
New Jersey licenses salespersons through a single exam given by PSI for the New Jersey Real Estate Commission: 110 scored questions — 80 on national real estate principles and 30 on New Jersey law — in one 4-hour sitting, and you pass by answering 70% correctly overall (77 of 110). PassProfessor’s New Jersey program gives you 19,674 original practice questions mapped to that same PSI outline, fresh practice exams generated at the outline’s weights on every attempt, drills for each outline area, and per-question analytics that break your results down area by area. A free sample exam comes with the program.
What’s included
A bank built on the outline PSI actually tests. The New Jersey salesperson exam draws on 15 content areas: 11 national areas weighted by percentage, from Contracts at 19% down to Property Management at 3%, and 4 New Jersey areas weighted by item count — Statutes and Rules Governing Licensee Activities alone carries 22 of the 30 state questions. Our bank holds 19,674 questions, every one tagged to one of those 15 areas: 14,530 on the national areas and 5,144 on the New Jersey areas. The state block is drilled as its own unit, because New Jersey license law — advertising rules, trust funds, the Consumer Information Statement, the Guaranty Fund — appears nowhere in national study material.
Practice exams generated fresh, at the real exam’s weights. Each full practice exam is drawn fresh for that attempt, weighted the way the PSI outline weights the real thing: Contracts and Agency together carry nearly a third of the national questions, and the New Jersey statutes-and-rules area carries almost three-quarters of the state questions. Questions you have not seen come first, and you never sit the same generated exam twice.
Drills that match how the exam is built. Drill a single outline area — Real Estate Calculations, Licensing Requirements, Property Disclosures — or sit a full 110-question simulation against the 4-hour clock. Your results break down by outline area, so a weak area shows up in your practice data while you can still fix it, not on a failing score report.
Per-question analytics that keep the bank honest. Every item in the program is monitored from real student responses. Questions students find suspiciously easy or suspiciously hard are pulled for review, and anything found wrong is fixed or retired. Your own results get the same treatment: the analytics show your accuracy by outline area, so your study time goes to the areas actually costing you questions.
Built for a one-clock exam. New Jersey gives you one sitting and one combined score — there is no separate pass mark for the state questions to hide behind, and no second appointment to schedule. Practice here is organized the same way: full simulations run the whole 110 questions in one 4-hour block, while the area breakdown underneath tells you whether a shortfall is coming from national principles or from New Jersey law.
The real exam at a glance
Current as of October 2026, per the New Jersey Real Estate Commission (Department of Banking and Insurance) and PSI’s official Candidate Information Bulletin for the New Jersey real estate examinations (updated 1/1/2024). Full detail — eligibility, the school-certification step, fingerprinting, retakes, test day — is in our New Jersey real estate exam guide.
| New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Examination | |
|---|---|
| Administered by | PSI Services LLC, for the New Jersey Real Estate Commission |
| Scored questions | 110 (80 national + 30 New Jersey-specific) |
| Unscored experimental questions mixed in | 5 to 10 (you cannot tell which they are; they count against your time but not your score) |
| Time limit | 4 hours, one sitting |
| Passing standard | 70% correct overall — 77 of 110 scored questions |
| Exam fee | $38 per attempt, paid to PSI when you reserve; non-refundable and non-transferable |
- One exam, one score. The bulletin states a single passing standard for the whole examination — 70% correct, 77 of 110. The national and New Jersey questions are delivered together in one 4-hour sitting; the bulletin does not set a separate pass mark for either part.
- You cannot schedule until your school certifies you. Complete the required 75-hour pre-licensing course first; your education provider then transmits your eligibility to PSI electronically, PSI emails you confirmation, and only then can you reserve. Your eligibility expires one year to the day from the date it is issued — you must pass the exam and apply for your license before that date.
- Two ways to test. PSI offers the exam at its test centers and by remote online proctoring; you choose the format when you schedule. The rules differ — remote candidates get no breaks and no scratch paper — so read the test-day section of our guide before you choose.
- The license fee is separate from the exam fee. After you pass, the salesperson license package totals $160 (a $100 license fee, a $50 application fee, and a $10 Guaranty Fund fee), submitted through your sponsoring broker with your passing score report and fingerprint documentation. This program is exam preparation only — it is not pre-licensing education and provides no education credit (see the disclaimer below).
How the practice maps to the real exam
Every question in the New Jersey bank is tagged to an area of PSI’s official salesperson content outline — the same outline the real exam is built from. The outline weights below are PSI’s published figures (percentages of the 80 national questions; item counts for the 30 New Jersey questions); the practice counts are the bank itself, counted question by question from the delivered workbook.
| Official outline area (weight on the real exam) | Practice questions |
|---|---|
| National portion — 80 scored questions | |
| I. Property Ownership (10%) | 1,454 |
| II. Land Use Controls (5%) | 727 |
| III. Valuation (8%) | 1,164 |
| IV. Financing (10%) | 1,455 |
| V. Contracts (19%) | 2,763 |
| VI. Agency (13%) | 1,889 |
| VII. Property Disclosures (7%) | 1,012 |
| VIII. Property Management (3%) | 432 |
| IX. Transfer of Title (6%) | 872 |
| X. Practice of Real Estate (12%) | 1,744 |
| XI. Real Estate Calculations (7%) | 1,018 |
| New Jersey-specific portion — 30 scored questions | |
| Duties and Powers of the Real Estate Commission (2 questions) | 363 |
| Licensing Requirements (3 questions) | 542 |
| Statutes and Rules Governing Licensee Activities (22 questions) | 3,694 |
| Additional Requirements (3 questions) | 545 |
| Total | 19,674 |
Two things worth noticing in that table. First, Contracts is the exam’s center of gravity: at 19% of the national portion it outweighs the next two areas combined, and the bank gives it the largest national allocation to match. Second, the New Jersey portion is really one subject wearing four labels — Statutes and Rules Governing Licensee Activities is 22 of its 30 questions, covering advertising, commissions and accounting, trust funds, agency and disclosure, and listings. Our 3,694 questions on that single area exist so the block that decides most of your state score can be drilled until it is routine.
How to use it
- Start with the free sample exam — a fixed set of New Jersey questions drawn from across the 15 outline areas — enough to see how the program works and where you stand.
- Drill by outline area. Work your weakest areas one at a time. With a combined score, a weak area is fixable from anywhere — but only if you know which area it is, and your area breakdown tells you.
- Give the New Jersey statutes-and-rules area its weight. It is 22 of 30 state questions and pure New Jersey law: advertising rules, escrow and trust-fund requirements, commission accounting, the Consumer Information Statement. It rewards direct, repeated study more than any other block on the exam.
- Sit full generated exams against the clock. The real exam is 110 scored questions — plus 5 to 10 experimental questions you cannot identify — inside one 4-hour sitting. Practice finishing the whole paper in one block, at the outline’s weights, on questions you have not seen before.
- Book the real exam through PSI when your full-simulation results sit comfortably above 77 of 110 — and keep your one-year eligibility clock in view: passing late is not enough if the license application misses the expiration date on your score report.
Pricing
The New Jersey program is $49 for full access to all 19,674 questions. Every PassProfessor program carries the same standard refund terms: 14 days, provided you have attempted less than 20% of the program (see the site Terms for the full policy).
Verified questions
Every question in this program is original — written for PassProfessor from the official exam blueprint, never copied from a test bank or another provider’s materials. Before enrollment opened, each answer key was independently verified: reviewers re-answered sampled questions blind, disagreements were settled against the primary sources, and every numeric answer was recomputed from first principles. Questions whose facts could not be confirmed were removed, and the bank passed a text-overlap screen. Practice exams draw a fresh, blueprint-weighted set from the full bank on every attempt, so no two practice exams are the same.
Frequently asked questions
How many questions are on the New Jersey real estate exam? The salesperson exam has 110 scored questions: 80 on national real estate principles and 30 on New Jersey-specific law, per PSI’s Candidate Information Bulletin. Another 5 to 10 unscored experimental questions are mixed in — they do not affect your score, but they do count against your 4 hours, and you cannot tell them apart from scored questions.
What score do I need to pass the New Jersey real estate exam? Per the PSI bulletin, you must answer 70% of the scored questions correctly — 77 of 110. The bulletin states one passing standard for the whole examination; it does not publish a separate pass mark for the national or the New Jersey questions. Your score is displayed on screen when you finish, and a score report is emailed to you.
How much does the New Jersey real estate exam cost? The exam fee is $38 per attempt, paid to PSI when you reserve, and registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable. The license itself is a separate payment made after you pass: $160 in total ($100 license fee, $50 application fee, $10 Guaranty Fund fee), submitted through your sponsoring broker. Fingerprinting carries its own separate cost through the Commission’s fingerprint process.
Who administers the New Jersey real estate exam? PSI Services LLC administers the exam under contract with the New Jersey Real Estate Commission, part of the Department of Banking and Insurance. You schedule on PSI’s New Jersey real estate page or by calling (855) 579-4634 — but only after your pre-licensing school has transmitted your eligibility to PSI.
What do I need before I can take the exam? Per the Real Estate Commission, you must be at least 18, hold a high school education or its equivalent, complete a 75-hour pre-licensing course at a licensed school, and be someone the Commission is satisfied meets its standards for honesty, trustworthiness, character, and integrity. Your school sends your eligibility to PSI electronically when you complete the course; your eligibility then expires one year to the day from the date it is issued.
Can I take the New Jersey real estate exam online? Yes. PSI offers the exam both at its test centers and by remote online proctoring, and you choose when you schedule. The remote rules are stricter: no breaks are allowed during a remotely proctored exam, and remote candidates may not use scratch paper. The bulletin is the authority on both formats — our exam guide summarizes the differences.
What happens if I fail the New Jersey exam? You test again. PSI will not let you book a new appointment on the same day you tested, because results must be processed first — the bulletin gives the example that a candidate who fails on a Wednesday can call Thursday and retest as early as Friday, space permitting. The $38 fee applies to each attempt, and every attempt must fit inside your one-year eligibility window. Your emailed score report includes a diagnostic breakdown of your strengths and weaknesses, which is the starting point for a retake plan.
How long do I have to get licensed after my course? One year. Your exam eligibility expires one year to the day from the date it is issued, and the bulletin requires you to pass the examination and apply for licensure before that expiration date. After passing, you complete the fingerprint process, meet with your employing broker, and submit everything together — the Licensing Services Bureau will not accept a partial submission.
Do I need a sponsoring broker before the exam? No. Sponsorship is a licensing step, not an exam step — you sit the exam on the strength of your completed 75-hour course and your school’s eligibility transmission. After you pass, you apply for the license through a sponsoring real estate broker, who signs your passing score report as your employing broker.
Are these the actual exam questions? No. Every PassProfessor question is written by us, from scratch, to PSI’s published New Jersey content outline and New Jersey real estate law. We never use real exam questions, recalled questions, or another provider’s bank — and using actual exam content would violate the candidate rules you agree to when you test.
Does this program count toward my 75 hours of pre-licensing education? No. PassProfessor is exam preparation only. It provides no pre-licensing education credit and is not a substitute for the 75-hour course, which you must complete at a Commission-licensed school before you can schedule the exam. This program prepares you for the exam that follows that course.
How do I enroll in the New Jersey program? Enrollment is open. Enroll on this page for $49 and you get immediate access to the full program — all 19,674 questions, the outline-area drills, and the generated practice exams — starting with the free sample exam if you want to look around first.
