Correct answer: A. Age 18, with successful completion of a minimum of sixty (60) hours of real estate courses

Correct. Section 73-35-7 requires every applicant for a resident salesperson's license to be age eighteen (18) or over, a bona fide Mississippi resident, and to have successfully completed a minimum of sixty (60) hours in real estate courses.

• B: This is the age and hour requirement for a Mississippi real estate BROKER's license, not a salesperson's license; the broker applicant must be 21 and complete 120 hours.
• C: Understates the required hours; 60, not 30, hours is the statutory minimum for salespersons.
• D: Overstates the age requirement (21 applies to brokers) while understating that the correct hour figure paired with age 18 is 60, not paired with age 21.

Correct answer: B. A minimum of one hundred fifty (150) classroom hours in real estate courses acceptable for college credit

Correct. Section 73-35-7 requires an applicant who has not held an active salesperson's license for at least 36 months prior to application to complete a minimum of 150 classroom hours in courses acceptable for credit toward a degree at an accredited college or university.

• A: The statute imposes an affirmative 150-hour education requirement in this scenario; a prior license does not exempt the applicant.
• C: 60 hours is the standard initial salesperson pre-license requirement, not the enhanced requirement for a lapsed licensee seeking broker qualification this way.
• D: 90 hours is not the figure specified in the statute for this pathway.

Correct answer: C. At least four times each year at regular intervals

Correct. Section 73-35-13 requires the written examination to be held at least four (4) times each year at regular intervals and stated times set by the Commission.

• A: The statute sets an explicit minimum frequency of four times per year; it is not left undefined.
• B: The Commission, not a school, sets the examination schedule under the statute.
• D: Understates the statutory minimum; twice a year is insufficient under Section 73-35-13.

Correct answer: D. Three (3) months from the date of the last examination

Correct. Section 73-35-13 provides that an applicant who fails the salesperson's examination on two occasions is ineligible for a similar examination until the expiration of three (3) months from the last attempt.

• A: The statute expressly imposes a waiting period after a second failure; it does not leave retesting unrestricted.
• B: Twelve months is not the figure used anywhere in Section 73-35-13 for either salesperson or broker retesting.
• C: Six months is the waiting period that applies after two failures of the BROKER'S examination, not the salesperson's examination.

Correct answer: A. At least sixty-five percent (65%)

Correct. Section 73-35-14.1 requires a pre-license school or education provider to maintain an annual average pass rate of at least sixty-five percent (65%) on each of the broker's and salesperson's examinations, or be given a three-month period to attain it.

• B: 50% is below the statutory minimum standard.
• C: 80% overstates the required minimum average pass rate.
• D: The statute explicitly sets a minimum pass-rate standard as a condition of continuing accreditation.
