What the South Carolina exam actually looks like

The South Carolina Real Estate Commission (SCREC) requires 90 hours of approved Salesperson pre-license education before you can sit for the state exam at PSI.

The exam is 120 multiple-choice questions split into two sections — 80 national + 40 South Carolina-specific — scored independently. You need 70% on each section (56 of 80 + 28 of 40).

Statewide first-attempt pass rates hover around 55%. Click2CE students pass at 92% because the question bank is built around the SCREC blueprint, SC Code Title 40 Ch. 57, agency disclosures, and SC’s coastal/beachfront disclosure rules.

South Carolina real estate exam — frequently asked questions

How many pre-license hours does South Carolina require?

South Carolina requires 90 hours of SCREC-approved Salesperson pre-license education through a school approved by the South Carolina Real Estate Commission, under SC Code Title 40 Chapter 57.

What is the format of the South Carolina real estate exam?

The SC Salesperson exam is administered by PSI and contains 120 multiple-choice questions: 80 national + 40 South Carolina-specific. Scored independently. You have approximately 4 hours total.

What is the passing score on the South Carolina real estate exam?

You need 70% on each section independently — 56 of 80 on the national section AND 28 of 40 on the South Carolina section. Failing either section means you fail the exam.

What does it mean that South Carolina exam results expire?

This is the SC quirk that catches the most candidates: SCREC requires you to apply for and activate your license within 12 months of passing the exam. Miss that window and your passing score is voided — you must retake the exam from scratch. Click2CE’s onboarding flags this calendar requirement.

How much does the South Carolina real estate exam cost?

The PSI exam fee is $63 per attempt. The SCREC Salesperson license fee is $50 (issuance) plus a separate application fee. If you fail one section, you only retake that section, but each retake costs the full $63.

What is the 30-hour post-license requirement?

After you receive your SC Salesperson license, SCREC requires a 30-hour post-license course within the first year. Miss this and your license becomes inactive.

Do I need a sponsoring Broker-in-Charge before activating in South Carolina?

Yes. South Carolina requires you to be sponsored by an active SC Broker-in-Charge before SCREC will activate your Salesperson license.

What unique South Carolina topics are heavily tested?

SC-specific topics include SC Code Title 40 Ch. 57 (License Law), SCREC rules, SC agency disclosures, the SC Residential Property Condition Disclosure, beachfront/coastal disclosure rules (under SC Code 48-39), and Horry/Charleston-area-specific issues like flood zones.
