Mississippi’s salesperson exam, given by PSI for the Mississippi Real Estate Commission, has two separately passed portions: a general portion of 80 questions in 2.5 hours, passed at 70% (56 points), and a Mississippi state portion of 40 questions in 1.5 hours, passed at the higher bar of 75% (30 points) — and both portions must be passed in the same two-month eligibility period after your application is approved. PassProfessor’s Mississippi program will give you 19,989 original practice questions built on those outlines — 13,279 on the national topics and 6,710 on Mississippi law and Commission rules — with fresh, blueprint-weighted practice exams, topic drills, and per-question analytics that break your results down by outline area. A free sample will come with the program at launch.
What’s included
A Mississippi bank, in both portions’ proportions and then some. The real exam is 80 general questions and 40 state questions. The state portion is only a third of the scored questions, but it is the portion national courses cover most lightly, it carries the higher passing bar (75%, against 70% on the general portion), and Mississippi limits you to two attempts at it in your eligibility period. Our bank holds 19,989 questions: 13,279 tagged to the eleven general-portion outline areas and 6,710 tagged to the nine Mississippi state-portion areas — agency disclosure and duties, trust accounts, broker responsibilities, Commission powers, licensing, property condition disclosures, records, advertising, and out-of-state brokers and developers.
Practice exams at the real exam’s weights. Each full practice exam will be generated fresh for that attempt — 80 general and 40 state questions in the same proportions PSI uses, with the general areas weighted the way the official outline weights them (contracts carry the most, at 15 of 80; general principles of agency and practice of real estate carry 10 each). Questions you have not seen come first, and you never sit the same exam twice.
Drills that match how the exam is built. Drill a single outline area — Mississippi trust accounts, contracts, real estate calculations, property condition disclosures — or sit the full 120-question simulation against the real clocks: 2.5 hours for the general portion and 1.5 hours for the state portion. Your results break down by outline area, so a weak area shows up in your practice data before it shows up on a score report.
Per-question analytics that keep the bank honest. Every item in the program will be monitored from real student responses once the program opens. Questions students find suspiciously easy or suspiciously hard are pulled for review, and anything found wrong is fixed or retired. Topic-level results show you where your own misses concentrate; the same data keeps the bank itself from drifting.
Built for Mississippi’s clock, not a generic one. In most states a failed portion is an inconvenience. In Mississippi, both portions must be passed in the same two-month eligibility period that starts when the Commission approves your application, and the state portion may be attempted only twice in that period. This program is organized so you can check readiness on each portion separately — general and state — before that window opens, not discover a gap inside it.
The real exam at a glance
Current as of October 2026, per the Mississippi Real Estate Commission and the PSI Candidate Information Bulletin for the Mississippi salesperson and broker examinations (updated 10/1/2023). Full detail — eligibility, registration, retakes, test day — is in our Mississippi real estate exam guide.
| General (national) portion | Mississippi state portion | |
|---|---|---|
| Administered by | PSI Services LLC, for the Mississippi Real Estate Commission (MREC) | PSI Services LLC, for MREC |
| Scored questions | 80 (80 points) | 40 (40 points) |
| Time limit | 2.5 hours (150 minutes) | 1.5 hours (90 minutes) |
| Passing standard | 70% — 56 points | 75% — 30 points |
| Combined sitting | 120 scored questions in 4 hours when both portions are taken together | |
| Exam fee | $75 for both portions — the same $75 whether you take one portion or both, paid to PSI | |
| Experimental questions | PSI may administer a small number (5 to 10) of unscored experimental questions; per the bulletin, they are not scored and the time taken on them does not count against your examination time |
- Both portions must be passed in the same two-month eligibility period. That period runs from approval of your application by the Commission. If you do not schedule, do not appear, or do not pass both portions inside it, you must re-apply to the Commission to establish eligibility again.
- The two portions have different bars. The general portion passes at 70% (56 of 80 points); the state portion passes at 75% (30 of 40 points). A strong general score does not offset a state score below 75% — each portion must reach its own standard.
- You retake only the portion you failed — but the state portion may be attempted only twice in the two-month period. If the state portion is failed twice, a salesperson applicant may re-apply only after a three-month waiting period. If you pass the state portion and fail the general portion, the bulletin allows you to keep retaking the general portion on an unlimited basis within the same two-month period.
- Education comes before the exam. A resident salesperson applicant must be 18 or older, be a Mississippi resident when the application is submitted, and complete 60 classroom hours of real estate courses from a college or community college or a Mississippi-approved pre-license education provider before taking the examination.
- The exam fee is not the license fee. The $75 above is PSI’s examination fee for one or both portions, and it is not refundable; registrations expire after one year. Fees connected with the license application itself are handled through the Commission — check the current amount with MREC when you apply, because Commission fee schedules change.
- The examination is administered by computer at PSI examination centers in and around Mississippi; the bulletin lists centers including Jackson, Mississippi, and locations in neighboring states, and PSI provides examination centers in many other regions for candidates using its out-of-state testing request form.
How the practice maps to the real exam
Every question in the Mississippi bank is tagged to an area of PSI’s published content outlines for this exam — the same outlines the real exam is built from. Counts below are the bank itself, counted question by question from the delivered workbook.
| Official outline area (scored questions on the real exam) | Practice questions |
|---|---|
| General portion | |
| I. Property Ownership (8) | 1,333 |
| II. Land Use Controls and Regulations (4) | 667 |
| III. Valuation and Market Analysis (6) | 1,000 |
| IV. Financing (8) | 1,333 |
| V. General Principles of Agency (10) | 1,661 |
| VI. Property Disclosures (6) | 986 |
| VII. Contracts (15) | 2,472 |
| VIII. Leasing and Property Management (2) | 332 |
| IX. Transfer of Title (5) | 835 |
| X. Practice of Real Estate (10) | 1,660 |
| XI. Real Estate Calculations (6) | 1,000 |
| General-portion subtotal (80 scored) | 13,279 |
| Mississippi state portion | |
| Powers and Duties of the Real Estate Commission (4) | 661 |
| Licensing Requirements and License Maintenance (4) | 680 |
| Property Condition Disclosures (4) | 685 |
| Agency Disclosure and Duties to Parties (8) | 1,334 |
| Out-of-State Brokers and Developers (4) | 666 |
| Trust Accounts (4) | 665 |
| Broker Responsibilities, Including Supervision of Sales Associates (6) | 1,000 |
| Records and Documents (3) | 517 |
| Advertising/Marketing/Internet (3) | 502 |
| State-portion subtotal (40 scored) | 6,710 |
| Total (120 scored) | 19,989 |
Every one of the twenty official outline areas — eleven general and nine state — is represented in the bank. The smallest area, Leasing and Property Management, still holds 332 practice questions against 2 scored questions on the real exam, and the smallest state area, Advertising/Marketing/Internet, holds 502 against 3 scored questions. No outline area is empty or near-empty, so a drill can be built for any area the outline names.
How to use it
- Join the notify list today. When enrollment opens, start with the free sample exam — a fixed set of Mississippi questions across both portions, enough to see how the program works and where you stand on each portion separately.
- Check each portion on its own. Because the general portion passes at 70% and the state portion at 75%, a single blended practice score hides the risk that matters. Look at your general and state results separately from the first session.
- Drill the Mississippi-law areas early. Agency Disclosure and Duties to Parties alone is 8 of the 40 state questions, and Broker Responsibilities adds 6 more. Together with trust accounts, licensing, and Commission powers, the state areas reward direct study of Mississippi statutes and Commission rules — and you get at most two state attempts inside your eligibility period.
- Drill by outline area. Work your weakest general areas — contracts first, at 15 of 80 scored questions, then agency and practice of real estate at 10 each — until the misses stop repeating, then do the same area by area on the state side.
- Sit full generated exams against the real clocks. 80 questions in 2.5 hours and 40 in 1.5 hours is a pace of just under two minutes a question. Practice the pace, not just the material, and practice the two portions as separate sittings with separate scores.
- Book the real exam through PSI once your practice scores sit comfortably above 70% on the general portion and comfortably above 75% on the state portion at the same time — because on the real exam, both of those things have to be true inside the same two-month eligibility period.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions are on the Mississippi real estate exam? The salesperson exam has 120 scored questions across two portions: 80 on the general portion and 40 on the Mississippi state portion. Taken together, the combined sitting is 4 hours — 2.5 hours for the general portion and 1.5 hours for the state portion. Per the PSI candidate bulletin, a small number (5 to 10) of unscored experimental questions may also be administered; they are not scored.
What score do I need to pass the Mississippi real estate exam? Each portion has its own standard, published in the PSI bulletin as a percentage of points: 70% on the general portion (56 of 80 points) and 75% on the state portion (30 of 40 points). You must reach both standards. Passing one portion does not compensate for falling short on the other.
Who administers the Mississippi real estate exam? PSI Services LLC administers the examination for the Mississippi Real Estate Commission, which contracted with PSI to conduct the testing. The Commission handles licensure and approves your application; PSI handles examination scheduling, test centers, and score reporting. Questions about eligibility and your license go to the Commission; questions about scheduling go to PSI.
How much does the Mississippi real estate exam cost? The examination fee is $75, paid to PSI, and it covers both portions — the fee is $75 whether you take one portion or both, and retakes are also $75 for one or both portions. Per the bulletin, registration fees are not refundable and expire after one year. That is the examination fee only; amounts connected with the license application are set by the Commission, so confirm the current figure with MREC when you apply.
What do I need before I can take the exam? Per the PSI bulletin, a salesperson applicant must be a resident of Mississippi when the application is submitted, be 18 years of age or older, and complete 60 classroom hours of real estate courses from a college or community college or a Mississippi-approved pre-license education provider before taking the examination. You apply to the Commission, and after your application is approved you schedule the examination with PSI.
What is the two-month eligibility period? Both portions must be passed in the same two-month period immediately following approval of your application. If you fail to schedule, fail to appear, or fail to pass both portions in that period, you must re-apply to the Commission to establish eligibility again. That window is the central scheduling fact of this exam, and it is why readiness on both portions — checked separately — matters before the window opens.
If I fail one portion, do I retake the whole exam? No. You retake only the portion you failed. Two limits apply inside the eligibility period: the state portion may be attempted only twice in the two months, and if the state portion is failed twice, a salesperson applicant may re-apply only after a three-month waiting period. If you pass the state portion but fail the general portion, the bulletin allows unlimited general-portion retakes within the same two-month period.
When can I enroll in the Mississippi program? Soon — the 19,989-question bank is complete and the program is in final preparation. Join the notify list on this page and we will email you the day enrollment opens, with the price.
Are these the actual exam questions? No. Every PassProfessor question is written by us, from scratch, to PSI’s published Mississippi content outlines and Mississippi 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 60 hours of pre-licensing education? No. PassProfessor is exam preparation only. It does not provide pre-licensing education credit and is not a substitute for the 60 classroom hours of real estate courses a salesperson applicant must complete through a college, community college, or Mississippi-approved provider before taking the examination.
Why does the Mississippi state portion get so much of the bank? Because it is 40 of the 120 scored questions with the higher passing bar — 75%, against 70% on the general portion — and a two-attempt limit inside your eligibility period. It is also the portion national study materials cover thinnest, because its content is Mississippi only: agency disclosure and the “Working with a Real Estate Broker” disclosure, trust accounts and earnest money, broker supervision, Commission powers and penalties, and the property condition disclosure rules. Our bank holds 6,710 state-portion questions so that portion can be drilled on its own until it is no longer the risky one.
Can I take the real exam at a center outside Mississippi? The bulletin lists PSI examination centers in and around Mississippi, including a Jackson, Mississippi center and centers in neighboring states, and states that PSI has centers in many other regions of the United States that may be used by submitting PSI’s out-of-state testing request form. Confirm the current center list on PSI’s Mississippi page when you schedule.
