Colorado requires 168 pre-licensing hours — the highest in the US. Exam has separate national and state sections with different passing scores.

How to Prepare for the Colorado Real Estate Exam

After completing your 168-hour pre-licensing course, dedicate 2–3 weeks to exam-specific practice before scheduling your PSI Exams appointment. Focus on the topics most commonly missed: commission and proration calculations, agency law (fiduciary duties, dual agency rules), Fair Housing Act protected classes, and contract law (offer, acceptance, consideration, contingencies). The Real Estate Prep app includes 600+ practice questions organized by topic — study on your commute, then test your readiness before booking your state exam.
