About 54% pass the Mississippi exam first time
Which means roughly 46 in 100 do not, and pay to sit it again. The gap is rarely knowledge — it is untimed studying meeting a timed exam. See how every state compares.
Mississippi practice exam questions
Is this Mississippi real estate practice exam free?
Yes. The practice exam on this page is free and needs no account. Each question shows the correct answer and an explanation as soon as you answer it. A free account lifts the daily limit and keeps your history.
How many questions are on the real Mississippi exam?
120 scored questions, with 240 minutes to answer them and 70% needed to pass. MREC publishes the current figures in its candidate handbook.
Does the practice exam cover Mississippi state law?
Yes. Our Mississippi bank holds 321 state-portion questions alongside 1,801 national ones, and the practice exam draws from both — the same mix the real exam uses.
What score should I get before booking the Mississippi exam?
Aim to sit comfortably above 70% on full-length practice, not just at it. Exam-day nerves and unfamiliar wording cost most candidates a few points, so a practice average that only just clears the line usually is not enough.
