Make the leap with a clear plan that fits a full-time schedule. Know how retakes work so you can plan your next attempt.

Switching into real estate is a big move, so you need clarity before you leave your current role. If you do not pass on the first attempt, you can retake the exam.

Focus on a simple sequence that lets you test the waters while you still have steady income. Retake rules, scheduling windows, and fees can change, so check Pearson VUE and DBPR guidance.
