Exam Tip
Legacy California general items should be used sparingly; they are kept officially supported for existing content but new MLO growth should focus more on DFPI/DRE, CFL, CRMLA, covered-loan, and usury rules.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- -Using a national baseline answer when California has agency-specific DFPI or DRE requirements
- -Confusing CFL, CRMLA, covered-loan, usury, servicing, and DRE endorsement rules
- -Relying on legacy California state-exam or education assumptions instead of current NMLS source pages
