Nevada's Pearson VUE-administered salesperson exam has separate passing results for the National and Nevada State portions. Alex scores 58 out of 80 on the National portion and 31 out of 40 on the Nevada State portion. Which of the following correctly describes Alex's result and next steps under Nevada's examination rules?

Correct Answer

A) Alex fails the National portion and must retake only the National portion; the passing Nevada State score is retained for the allowed period

Nevada uses separate National and State portions for the salesperson exam. The current outline uses 80 scored National items and 40 scored Nevada State items, and candidates must reach the applicable passing standard on each portion separately. Alex scored 58/80 on National, which is below 75% (60/80), but 31/40 on Nevada State, which is above 75% (30/40). Alex therefore retakes only the failed National portion, subject to Pearson VUE/NRED retained-score rules.

Answer Options
A
Alex fails the National portion and must retake only the National portion; the passing Nevada State score is retained for the allowed period
B
Alex passes both portions because both scores are above 70%
C
Alex fails both portions because Nevada requires a combined score of at least 75% across the two portions
D
Alex fails the Nevada State portion and must retake the entire exam including the National portion
