Our sources
In this order of authority:
- The PSI Candidate Information Bulletin for Georgia. The authority on exam format, scoring, fees, and test-day rules. Where this site and the bulletin ever disagree, the bulletin is right and we are wrong.
- Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC). The authority on licensing requirements, education, background review, and renewal.
- Georgia primary law, O.C.G.A., including Title 10 Chapter 6A for BRRETA and Title 48 Chapter 6 for transfer and intangible taxes.
We do not source exam facts from competitor sites, school blogs, or forum posts. Those are where wrong numbers propagate: one site publishes an error, twenty others repeat it, and the repetition starts to look like corroboration.
How facts are maintained
Every exam and licensing number on this site is defined once, in a single source-of-truth module, and rendered from there. No page carries its own copy of the exam fee or the license fee. A build-time check fails the site if any prose anywhere contradicts that source, so a number cannot change in one place and go stale in forty others.
This is a deliberately unglamorous engineering answer to the most common failure mode in this category: sites that were accurate on the day they launched and have not been true since.
How we handle uncertainty
Where a fact is genuinely unconfirmed, we say so on the page rather than picking the most quotable version. Two standing rules:
- Pass rates. GREC publishes no official pass rate. Every core guide states that fact and does not replace it with an unsupported estimate.
- Attempt limits and waiting periods. We do not print retake limits that we cannot confirm in the current bulletin, even though other sites do.
Authors, reviewers, and accountable ownership
Pass Georgia is the named organizational publisher. We do not invent a person, credential, headshot, or legal review that did not happen. Each core authority page shows its review scope, source edition, and date. When a qualified named reviewer signs off on a page, that person and the scope of review will be shown. Until then, the site makes the primary-source trail inspectable and labels the publisher honestly.
Legal and licensing facts require primary-source verification. Preparation advice is labeled as advice, original questions are mapped to the published outline, and no one may imply access to live PSI items.
Question-writing standard
- Map the question to one PSI outline node and the skill it measures.
- Write a new scenario without recalling or requesting live exam content.
- Use one defensible best answer and plausible distractors based on real confusions.
- Explain why the answer is correct and why every distractor is wrong.
- Cite the underlying rule, statute, formula, or official principle.
- Review wording for ambiguity, bias, accessibility, and accidental clues.
What we have not yet re-verified
Published openly, because a verification list nobody can see is not a verification process. These are claims we do not make and items still open. Each is rechecked whenever PSI or GREC publishes a new edition:
You need 75% on the Georgia real estate exam
GREC sets no fixed percentage. Rule 520-1-.04(3)(a) says candidates must make a passing score determined by psychometrically sound criterion-related methods, and that the minimum is published before each administration. Sites quoting a flat 75%, or 75 of 100 and 39 of 52, are not quoting a source.

You must pass the national and Georgia portions separately
The bulletin's sample score report shows one total score with a pass or fail, and national and Georgia subtotals beneath it. Nothing in the bulletin describes a separate passing score for each portion. Its table of contents does list a heading called "Re-taking a Failed Portion", but the section itself only describes retaking the exam. Until GREC or PSI says otherwise in writing, we do not tell anyone they can bank one portion.

You get 4 hours for the exam
The 7/1/2026 bulletin states no examination time limit, so we do not quote one. If PSI or GREC publishes a figure, it goes here with the source.

What a GCIC criminal history report costs
The 60-day validity window is confirmed in the bulletin. The fee is not published there and varies by issuing agency, so we describe it as a small fee rather than quoting a number.

Where PSI publishes the current minimum passing score before administration
Rule 520-1-.04 says the minimum passing score is published before administration, but the July 1, 2026 public bulletin does not state the number. We do not fill that gap with the widely repeated 75% claim.

Review cadence
Pages that quote fees, exam format, or legal requirements are checked against PSI and GREC on a rolling basis, and immediately whenever a source publishes a change.
The public source and update log records material corrections, official-source conflicts, and open questions. Quiet copyedits do not masquerade as factual reviews.
What this site is not
- Not affiliated with GREC or PSI. Independent exam preparation.
- Not a substitute for the GREC-required pre-license course.
- Not legal advice. For questions about your own circumstances, ask GREC or a Georgia attorney.
- Not a source of copied exam questions. Every practice question and scenario on this site and in the app is original.
Corrections
If you find an error, tell us and we will fix it. Email ktaukheer@gmail.com with the page and what is wrong. A correction backed by a primary source will be applied quickly, and the fact that the site renders every number from one place means the fix reaches every page at once.
