Sandra passed the Missouri real estate salesperson exam on March 1. She completed 72 hours of pre-license education: a 48-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice course and a 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Principles course. Her friend Tom, who lives in Kansas, tells her that he only needed 60 hours of pre-license education before passing his Kansas exam. Sandra wonders if she could have taken fewer hours. Which statement is most accurate regarding Missouri's specific pre-license education structure?

Correct Answer

C) Missouri requires 72 hours divided into a specific 48-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice course and a 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Principles course, both of which must be MREC-approved

Missouri mandates exactly 72 hours of pre-license education for salesperson candidates, divided into two specifically named and structured courses: the 48-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice course and the 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Principles course. Both courses must be offered by MREC-approved providers. The course titles, hour allocations, and approval requirements are fixed by MREC rule — they are not flexible or interchangeable with electives.

Answer Options
A
Missouri requires 60 hours, split into two 30-hour courses, and Sandra's friend Tom is correct that 60 hours is sufficient in Missouri
B
Missouri requires 72 hours, but the split between the two required courses is flexible and determined by the approved school
C
Missouri requires 72 hours divided into a specific 48-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice course and a 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Principles course, both of which must be MREC-approved
D
Missouri requires 72 hours, but only the 48-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice course is mandatory; the remaining 24 hours may be satisfied by any MREC-approved elective
