Your next step appears here. The complete delivery rules and sources are in the guide below.
Approval comes before the delivery choice
The Massachusetts candidate bulletin, updated June 12, 2025 and reviewed October 24, 2026, describes test-center and remote-proctored scheduling. Candidates must complete the approval process before reserving. Use the Massachusetts PSI programme and the Board’s guidance for your licence route.
A course completion document, approval message and appointment confirmation are different records. Keep all three rather than assuming that paying a school or creating a PSI account means a licensing exam has been booked.
Check the Educational Certificate date
The bulletin ties completion of the examination to the Educational Certificate period. If one portion is passed and the other is not, the failed portion must be completed within two years of the certificate’s completion date, or the period authorised by the Board. When the certificate expires, the partial pass also expires.
That rule affects delivery planning. A remote appointment may avoid a journey but does not supply extra eligibility time. Likewise, changing to a center cannot preserve a partial pass beyond the applicable certificate period. Resolve uncertain dates before paying for another sitting.
Compare a controlled room with a managed site
Remote candidates should run the current PSI system check using the intended computer and network, then read the room, camera, ID and break instructions. A shared workspace or restricted device may be unsuitable even when the connection is fast.
At a center, read the current identification rules and plan the actual journey. Check the examination name, date, time and modality on the confirmation. If an accommodation is needed, follow the official application process in advance rather than relying on a test-day request.

Both portions still need preparation
The Massachusetts difficulty guide explains the General and State portions. Study Massachusetts-specific duties separately from general concepts, then combine them in timed review. A strong General practice result should not conceal a State weakness.
If you have already failed one portion, use the official diagnostic and remaining certificate time to make a focused plan. Repeating familiar questions without explaining the mistakes can make the practice score rise while leaving the underlying weakness unchanged.
EstatePass provides independent practice, not Board-approved qualifying education, PSI or the licensing authority. Use the Massachusetts hub for preparation and official sources for authorisation, accommodations and examination records.
