Real Estate License Exam Prep (National Version) released!

Features of Real Estate License Exam Prep (RELEP):
  • National Flash Cards
  • Math Flash Cards
  • National Practice Tests (500 questions)
  • Simulation Exam (75 questions)


  • We know the real estate licensing exam can be tough, and very nerve-wracking to prepare for. That’s why we created the Real Estate License Exam Prep (RELEP) the way we did. Since we have been managing real estate schools and developing curriculum for forty years, we know how all this works – or fails to work.

    First, RELEP is comprehensive in that it contains both key content review and testing practice. RELEP’s national flash cards are a succinct compression of tested national principles and practices that comprise the national portion of state license exams from coast to coast. Our content is drawn from our own national textbook, Principles of Real Estate Practice – one of the most widely used principles textbooks in the country. Thus the breadth and depth of the cram cards and test questions reflect the topic emphasis of the three major testing services for the national portion of the state exam.

    A word about the test questions… RELEP’s testing practice section consists of ten national practice tests and one simulation test. The practice tests are roughly 50 questions in length and the simulation test is 75 questions. The questions are direct, to the point, and designed to test your understanding. When you have completed a given test, you can check your answers against the answer key in the appendix. You may also note that each question’s answer is accompanied by a brief explanation, or “rationale” to further reinforce your understanding.

    Your particular study and testing practice strategy using RELEP is up to you. But to fully exploit its comprehensive content coverage, you should try to review and memorize the cram cards as much as possible. Then you should make every effort to take each exam, review your mistakes, and re-read the flash cards that cover your weaker areas.

    One note of caution is also in order: this National edition of RELEP does not contain state laws and practices applicable in your state of residence or where you intend to get your license. Therefore you will need to study state-level laws given to you by your prelicense school in order to pass the state portion of the state exam. While we are in the process of adding state-level materials to our RELEP series we still have a ways to go. So, until we have state review materials for your state, we give you this publication – a total-coverage review and practice resource of the highest quality for the national portion of the state exam.

    Now that we’ve have been straightforward with you, a second word of caution. Don’t be fooled by other national prep books – that contain no state-level materials – that advertise you will pass your state exam by learning and reviewing what’s in their publication. You won’t. It is absolutely essential that you develop a comprehensive understanding of both national and state laws and principles in order to pass your state’s license examination. 

    While RELEP is as comprehensive a national prep text as it gets, in the end -- as your prelicense course hopefully informed you -- it’s all up to you. It still takes hard work and study to pass. But we have done our best here to get you ready for the national portion of the state exam. Following that, the most we can do is wish you the best of success in taking and passing your state exam. So good luck!!

    Illinois Real Estate License Exam Prep (IL-RELEP) now available!

    Performance Programs Company has published its second title of its new Real Estate License Exam Prep series, Illinois Real Estate License Exam Prep by Mettling, Cusic, and Mettling.



    About the Real Estate License Exam Prep series:


    We know the real estate licensing exam can be tough, and very nerve-wracking to prepare for.  That’s why we created the Real Estate License Exam Prep (RELEP) series the way we did.  Since we have been managing real estate schools and developing curriculum for forty years, we know how all this works – or fails to work.

    RELEP is comprehensive in that it contains both key content review and testing practice.  And the text review is state-specific – not just simplistic national content, but terse, relevant and accurate state laws and regulations presented as a well-organized set of state ‘cram cards’ ideal for pre-test memorization.  But let’s not dismiss the importance of the national content either.  RELEP’s national cram cards are a succinct compression of tested national principles and practices that comprise the national portion of state license exams from coast to coast. Our content is drawn from our own national textbook, Principles of Real Estate Practice (http://www.performanceprogramscompany.com/) – one of the most widely used principles textbooks in the country.  Finally, our national content, as well as our question selection, is further tailored to each state testing outline promulgated by AMP, PSI, or Pearson Vue.  Thus the breadth and depth of the cram cards and test questions reflect the topic emphasis of your state’s testing service and your state's license exam.

    A word about the test questions… RELEP’s testing practice section consists of ten national practice tests, three state practice tests, and one state exam simulation test.  The practice tests are roughly 50 questions in length and the simulation test is 100 questions.  The test questions are designed to cover the content covered by the cram cards – which reinforces your learning of the total body of information tested by your state exam.  The questions are direct, to the point, and designed to test your understanding.  When you have completed a given test, you can check your answers against the answer key in the appendix.  You may also note that each question’s answer is accompanied by a brief explanation, or “rationale” to further reinforce your understanding.
