What the Arizona exam actually looks like
The Arizona Department of Real Estate (ADRE) requires 90 hours of approved Salesperson pre-license education before you can sit for the state exam. Once that’s complete, you sit for the Salesperson exam at a Pearson VUE testing center — and after passing, you complete the separate 6-hour Contract Writing course before activation.
Arizona gives two separate exams — an 80-question General (national) exam and a 60-question State exam — each scored independently with its own score report. You need 75% on each (60 of 80 on the General exam and 45 of 60 on the State exam). The State exam goes unusually deep on Arizona-specific law.
Statewide first-attempt pass rates hover around 60%. Click2CE students pass at 92% because the question bank is built specifically around the ADRE blueprint, ARS Title 32 Chapter 20, the Commissioner’s Rules, SPDS, Buyer Advisory, and Arizona’s unusual depth on water rights and federal land disclosures.
The 60-question Arizona State exam, broken down
Most candidates lose on the State exam, not the General one. ADRE’s blueprint goes deeper on Arizona-specific law than almost any other state, so it pays to know exactly where those 60 questions come from before you sit down at Pearson VUE.
- ADRE statutes & rules: ARS Title 32, Chapter 20 and the Commissioner’s Rules (A.A.C. R4-28) — licensing, license renewal, broker supervision, and unlicensed-assistant limits.
- Disclosure obligations: the Seller Property Disclosure Statement (SPDS), the Buyer Advisory, lead-based-paint disclosure, and the Affidavit of Disclosure required for certain unsubdivided rural parcels.
- Trust accounts & the Recovery Fund: earnest-money handling and timelines, commingling rules, and the ADRE Real Estate Recovery Fund (claim and aggregate limits).
- Water & land: Arizona groundwater rules, Active Management Areas, the 100-year assured/adequate water supply rule, wells, and the Subdivision Public Report.
- Agency & contracts: Arizona agency disclosure timing and the AAR Residential Resale Purchase Contract, including the BINSR inspection-period mechanics.
- Fair housing & advertising: federal and Arizona fair-housing law plus ADRE advertising and team-name rules.
Click2CE’s Arizona question bank weights these areas the way ADRE does, and every rationale cites the specific statute or Commissioner’s Rule so you learn the reasoning, not just the answer.
Your path to an Arizona salesperson license
- 1
Finish 90 hours of ADRE-approved pre-license education
Through an ADRE-approved school (Click2CE Real Estate School, school code S26-0002). This is the prerequisite to sit for the exam.
- 2
Get your fingerprint clearance card
Apply for an Arizona DPS fingerprint clearance card early — processing can take several weeks, and you cannot activate without it.
- 3
Pass the two Pearson VUE exams
A separate 80-question General exam and 60-question State exam, scored independently. You need 75% on each (60 of 80 and 45 of 60).
- 4
Complete the 6-hour ADRE Contract Writing course
A separate ADRE requirement on top of the 90 hours. You must finish it before your license is issued.
- 5
Affiliate with a sponsoring designated broker
Your license stays inactive until an active Arizona broker submits your affiliation through ADRE.
- 6
Submit your application and fees to ADRE
File the license application with the $125 issuance fee. Once ADRE processes it, your salesperson license is active.
Timing tip: most Click2CE students go from enrollment to an active license in roughly four months. The two steps people underestimate are the fingerprint clearance card (start it on day one) and the 6-hour Contract Writing course (it’s easy to forget it’s separate from the 90 hours).

“Arizona’s 60-question State exam is brutal and Pearson VUE is unforgiving. Click2CE drilled the SPDS, Buyer Advisory, and Commissioner’s Rules until I knew them cold. Passed both exams first try.”

About the Arizona Real Estate Exam
The Arizona real estate salesperson license requires passing two separate Pearson VUE exams: an 80-question General (national) exam and a 60-question State exam — 140 questions in total, each scored independently. Candidates must score at least 75% on each exam (60 of 80 on the General exam and 45 of 60 on the State exam). Pearson VUE charges $70 for the General exam and $60 for the State exam ($75 to book both together), and ADRE charges a $125 license issuance fee. Nationally, first-time pass rates for real estate licensing exams average roughly 56% — making targeted, state-specific preparation essential.

Arizona real estate exam — frequently asked questions
How many pre-license hours does Arizona require?
Arizona requires 90 hours of ADRE-approved Salesperson pre-license education through a school approved by the Arizona Department of Real Estate (ADRE). Plus a separate 6-hour ADRE-mandated Contract Writing course before you can activate your license.
What is the format of the Arizona real estate exam?
Arizona uses two separate Pearson VUE exams, not one combined test: a General (national) exam of 80 questions and a State exam of 60 questions. You sit for them separately and receive two separate score reports, and each exam is scored independently.
What is the passing score on the Arizona real estate exam?
You need 75% on each exam independently — that is 60 of 80 on the General exam AND 45 of 60 on the State exam. Because they are two separate exams, you must pass each one on its own.
How much does the Arizona real estate exam cost?
Pearson VUE charges $70 for the General exam and $60 for the State exam, or $75 for the combined booking when you schedule both at once. ADRE license issuance is $125. If you fail one exam, you only retake that exam.
What is the 6-hour Contract Writing course?
After you pass the ADRE exams, Arizona requires a separate 6-hour Contract Writing course before your license is issued. This is in addition to the 90-hour pre-license course. Many students forget about this and get caught short — Click2CE’s study plan flags it before you sit for the exam.
How deep is the Arizona State exam?
The 60-question Arizona State exam goes unusually deep on AZ-specific law: SPDS, Buyer Advisory, ADRE Commissioner’s Rules, water rights, federal land issues, and Arizona’s unique disclosure obligations. Because it is a separate exam you must pass on its own, treat it as an entire exam unto itself.
Do I need a sponsoring broker before activating in Arizona?
Yes. Arizona requires you to be sponsored by an active Arizona broker before ADRE will activate your Salesperson license. You can pass the exam first and complete the Contract Writing course, but the license is not active until your broker submits the affiliation through ADRE.
How does Arizona continuing education work?
Active Arizona Salespersons must complete 24 hours of continuing education every 2 years to renew, including 9 hours of mandatory ADRE topics (3 hours each of Agency Law, Contract Law, and Commissioner’s Standards). Click2CE offers ADRE-approved CE bundles.
