1. A Georgia sales brokerage hires an unlicensed assistant. Which task may the assistant perform?State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.Negotiate contract terms with a cooperating agent
B.Explain the terms of a listing agreement to a seller
C.Schedule appointments and prepare marketing materials
D.Show listed homes to buyers and answer their questions

Answer C: Schedule appointments and prepare marketing materials

Unlicensed support staff may perform only ministerial tasks that call for no discretion or independent judgment, such as scheduling and preparing marketing materials. Negotiating, explaining agreement terms, and showing property to buyers are brokerage activities that require a license.

Why each choice works or fails

A. Misconception: relaying terms is clerical. Negotiating is brokerage activity that requires a license.
B. Misconception: explaining a signed form is paperwork. Interpreting an agreement calls for the judgment a license represents.
C. Correct. Scheduling and preparing marketing materials are ministerial support tasks.
D. Misconception: showing is just opening doors. Showing homes to buyers and answering their questions is licensed sales activity.

Rule to remember: Unlicensed assistants may do only ministerial, no-judgment tasks. Showing, negotiating, and explaining terms need a license.

2. The Georgia Real Estate Education, Research and Recovery Fund primarily exists to:State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.Pay the Commission's day-to-day operating costs
B.Insure brokers against errors and omissions claims
C.Pay the fines the Commission imposes on licensees
D.Compensate consumers harmed by licensee violations

Answer D: Compensate consumers harmed by licensee violations

The fund reimburses members of the public who win a court judgment against a licensee for a violation and cannot collect it. It is not insurance for the licensee: payment from the fund leads to revocation of the license, and the licensee must repay the fund.

Why each choice works or fails

A. Misconception: fund money runs the agency. Operating costs are not the fund's purpose.
B. Misconception: the fund is licensee insurance. A payout leads to revocation and the licensee must repay the fund.
C. Misconception: the fund covers discipline. Fines are the licensee's own obligation.
D. Correct. The fund protects the public when a judgment against a licensee cannot be collected.

Rule to remember: The Recovery Fund protects the public, not the licensee.

3. Before a claimant may recover from the Georgia Real Estate Education, Research and Recovery Fund, the claimant must generally first:State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.Obtain an unsatisfied court judgment against the licensee
B.Exhaust the licensee's errors and omissions policy
C.Prove the licensee has been criminally convicted
D.File a complaint with the Commission and wait 30 days

Answer A: Obtain an unsatisfied court judgment against the licensee

The fund pays the unsatisfied portion of a court judgment obtained against a licensee for a violation in a real estate transaction, after the claimant has tried and failed to collect. A GREC complaint can lead to discipline, but discipline alone does not open the fund.

Why each choice works or fails

A. Correct. An unsatisfied court judgment against the licensee is the gateway to a fund claim.
B. Misconception: the fund acts as excess insurance. Recovery is keyed to an unsatisfied judgment, not to private coverage.
C. Misconception: the fund pays only for crimes. A civil judgment for a violation is enough; no conviction is needed.
D. Misconception: a GREC complaint opens the fund. A complaint can lead to discipline, not compensation.

Rule to remember: The Recovery Fund pays only on an unsatisfied court judgment against a licensee, after collection efforts fail.

4. A new Georgia salesperson received an original license this month. Which education requirement comes due first?State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.A 25-hour post-license course within one year of licensure
B.A 25-hour post-license course before the first license renewal
C.36 hours of continuing education within one year of licensure
D.A 3-hour license law course within one year of licensure

Answer A: A 25-hour post-license course within one year of licensure

A new salesperson must finish a Commission-approved post-license course of at least 25 hours within one year of the original license. That is its own deadline. The 36 CE hours, including 3 hours of license law, are due by the end of each renewal period; the post-license course does not replace them, though GREC Rule 520-2-.04(13)(a) lets it count as 9 of those hours for the first renewal.

Why each choice works or fails

A. Correct. The 25-hour post-license course is due within one year of the original license.
B. Misconception: tying post-license to renewal. The course has its own one-year deadline, well before the first renewal.
C. Misconception: mixing up the hour counts. 36 hours is the continuing education total for each renewal period, not the first-year course.
D. Misconception: treating license law CE as the first obligation. The 3 license law hours are part of the 36 CE hours due by renewal.

Rule to remember: Georgia salespersons: 25-hour post-license course within year one; 36 CE hours each renewal period.

5. A candidate passes the Georgia salesperson exam and applies for a license four months later. The application fee will be:State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.Twice the standard fee
B.The standard fee
C.The standard fee plus a late penalty
D.Refused until the exam is retaken

Answer A: Twice the standard fee

A candidate who applies within three months of the exam pays the standard fee. After three months the fee is two times the original application fee, and after twelve months the candidate must retake the exam.

Why each choice works or fails

A. Correct. After three months the application fee doubles.
B. Misconception: any timing gets the base fee. The standard fee applies only within three months of the exam.
C. Misconception: lateness adds a surcharge. The rule doubles the fee rather than adding a penalty.
D. Misconception: a late application voids the score. A retake is required only after twelve months.

Rule to remember: Apply within three months for the standard fee; after that it doubles, and after twelve months you retest.

6. All of the following are within the Georgia Real Estate Commission's authority EXCEPT:State Laws and Rules. Open choices and explanation.

A.Investigating complaints against licensees
B.Suspending or revoking a license
C.Setting the commission rate licensees may charge
D.Approving prelicense schools and courses

Answer C: Setting the commission rate licensees may charge

GREC licenses and disciplines licensees, investigates complaints, and approves schools and courses. No Georgia law lets it set commissions. Commission rates are negotiated between each broker and client, and agreements among competitors to fix them violate antitrust law.

Why each choice works or fails

A. GREC investigates complaints against licensees.
B. GREC may suspend or revoke licenses after due process.
C. Correct. Commissions are negotiable; GREC does not set them.
D. GREC approves prelicense schools, instructors, and courses.

Rule to remember: GREC regulates licensees and schools. It never sets commission rates, which are negotiable.

What does this assessment cover?

PSI says a failing score report includes diagnostic strengths and weaknesses by examination type. Translate that evidence into the closest published area, then gather a larger fresh sample before the next attempt.

The Georgia-specific distinction

Keep the national and Georgia subtotals separate. If Georgia is weak, split the work again into Laws and Rules, Georgia Practice, and Finance and Closing rather than reading one general state summary.

Worked result example

If the report points to Georgia and review notes show national-instinct errors, build a Georgia-only set, read the Georgia distinction after each item, and follow with a fresh 52-question simulation.

Common exam traps

Retaking a full practice exam before repairing anything.
Studying only the lowest raw score without considering sample size.
Memorizing questions from the failed attempt.
Booking again because the average improved while one group stayed weak.

Ready to move on?

Score the set before opening notes.
Explain the winning rule without repeating the answer choice.
Classify every miss as knowledge, distinction, wording, math setup, or timing.
Repair the weakest official area, then answer a fresh set on another day.
Move on only when the result is stable and guesses are being marked as gaps.

Recommended next lesson

Use the complete retake recovery plan. Use the result above to choose the first lesson or drill rather than following a generic order.

Assessment integrity

The questions are original and mapped to the current PSI outline. This preview introduces the assessment; the complete version is in Pass Georgia. PSI says practice exams help candidates become familiar with general question types, but they do not replace education and a good practice score does not guarantee an examination outcome. This page reports evidence, not a pass probability.

About this practice set
