What the Washington exam actually looks like
The Washington State Department of Licensing (DOL) requires 90 hours of approved pre-license education across two courses: 60-hour Real Estate Fundamentals and 30-hour Real Estate Practices. Once that’s complete, you sit for the Broker exam at a PSI testing center.
Quick terminology note: Washington calls salespeople “Brokers” and brokers “Managing Brokers” — opposite of how most states use those words. The 90-hour path described here is for the entry-level Broker license, equivalent to a Salesperson license in other states.
The exam is 130 multiple-choice questions split into two sections — 100 national questions and 30 Washington-specific questions — with 3.5 hours total. You need 70% on each section independently. Statewide first-attempt pass rates hover around 60%; Click2CE students pass at 92% because the question bank is built around the actual DOL Broker blueprint and Washington RCW 18.85 citations.

Washington exam — the numbers that matter
Washington real estate exam — frequently asked questions
How many pre-license hours does Washington require?
Washington requires 90 hours of DOL-approved pre-license education across two courses: Real Estate Fundamentals (60 hours) and Real Estate Practices (30 hours). Both must be completed through a Washington Department of Licensing-approved provider before you can sit for the Broker exam.
Why does Washington call salespeople "Brokers"?
Washington uses non-standard terminology. What most states call a "Salesperson" is a "Broker" in Washington. What most states call a "Broker" is a "Managing Broker" in Washington. The 90-hour pre-license + state exam path is the equivalent of a Salesperson license elsewhere.
What is the format of the Washington real estate exam?
The Washington Broker exam is administered by PSI and contains 130 multiple-choice questions: 100 national questions and 30 Washington-specific questions. You have 3.5 hours total. The two sections are scored independently.
What is the passing score on the Washington real estate exam?
You need 70% on each section independently — 70% on the 100-question national section AND 70% on the 30-question Washington section. Failing either section means you fail the exam.
How much does the Washington real estate exam cost? What about retakes?
The PSI exam fee is $138.25 per attempt. The DOL Broker license fee is $146.25. If you fail one section, you only retake that section — but each retake costs the full exam fee.
How long does it take to get a Washington real estate license?
Most candidates take 3–5 months. The 90 hours of pre-license education is the largest variable — full-time learners can finish in 3–4 weeks; part-time learners typically take 8–12 weeks. Add 2–4 weeks for fingerprinting, DOL application processing, and exam scheduling.
Do I need a sponsoring Managing Broker before applying in Washington?
Yes. Washington requires you to be sponsored by an active Washington Managing Broker before the DOL will issue your active Broker license. You can pass the exam first, but the license is not active and you cannot practice until a Managing Broker submits the affiliation through the DOL.
What is the Washington Department of Licensing?
The Washington State Department of Licensing (DOL) — specifically its Real Estate Program — is the state agency that licenses and regulates real estate brokers and managing brokers in Washington. The DOL approves pre-license course providers and oversees the PSI licensing exam.
