Before anything else: read the score report properly
If you fail, the report PSI emails you includes a diagnostic of strengths and weaknesses by examination type, not just a pass or fail. Keep it beside your practice results. Together, they can help you choose what to review before the next attempt.
Read it for one thing: which examination type and content areas show the clearest weakness. Everything below depends on that answer. How to read the PSI score report walks through it line by line.
The Rule
Start with the mistakes you can explain. Review the rule, then try a fresh question without your notes.
Three ways to plan your next two weeks
These are example schedules, not fixed recovery times. Start with the pattern that fits your results and adjust the pace as you study. If the same mistakes keep appearing, spend more time on those topics before rebooking.
Pattern 1: the Georgia subtotal is the weak spot
Your Georgia subtotal and diagnostic are materially weaker than the national work. That points to 52 questions of state law as the repair priority, without assuming that PSI uses separate passing thresholds.
Days 1–4: BRRETA only. The client versus customer distinction, brokerage engagements, dual and designated agency, disclosure timing. Do not move on until scenario questions stop feeling ambiguous. The BRRETA guide covers exactly this.
Days 5–8: Security deeds and title theory, attorney closings, non-judicial foreclosure, Georgia taxes. The difference ledger is a useful way to review rules that differ from national practice.
Days 9–11: GREC license law, trust accounts, and record-keeping rules.
Days 12–14: Mixed Georgia-only practice until your accuracy is stable across at least two reviewed sets. Start a Georgia recovery set and review the explanation for each miss.
Pattern 2: math failed you
If your diagnostic points to calculations, compare it with your practice results. Check whether you chose the wrong formula, made an arithmetic error, or missed a detail in the question.
Days 1–3: Start by reading each question and naming the formula you need. Practice transfer tax on price, intangible tax on loan, the 40% assessment ratio, proration, LTV, and cap rate. Once the setup is clear, work through the calculation and units.
Days 4–9: Mixed math drills without topic labels, because the exam never tells you which type is coming.
Days 10–14: Timed math under pressure, then full mixed practice. The math drill runs untitled by design.
Pattern 3: close overall, no single weak area
If your total was close and neither subtotal stands out, use mixed practice to look for a pattern. For each miss, check whether you forgot the rule, overlooked a detail, or misread the wording.
Days 1–10: Mixed practice across both portions. Review each wrong answer's explanation and write down the rule you missed.
Days 11–14: Practice EXCEPT and NOT questions with the trap library, then work through two full-length practice exams. Try a free wording recovery set to check the pattern before committing to longer practice.
After you pass: the license application deadlines
Once you pass, you have 12 months to apply before the result expires, and the fee doubles from $170 to $340 after three months. Put both dates on your calendar as soon as you receive a passing result.
One thing worth saying plainly
GREC publishes no official pass rate, and a failed attempt is not a verdict on whether you will be good at the work. It is evidence about a particular exam form on a particular day. Use the diagnostic to make the next attempt different.
