The Missouri exam at a glance

MREC exam via PSI (candidate handbook, PSI Services LLC © 2024, updated 7/18/2024, pr.mo.gov/boards/realestate/MOREP-handbook.pdf). Salesperson: 100 national (150min, 70%) + 40 Missouri items (120min, 75%) = 140, 270min total. Broker: 90 national items scored to a 100-point scale (150min, 75%) + 75 Missouri items (120min, 75%) = 165, 270min total. The broker national portion is scenario-based, best-answer multiple-choice (up to 8 options tied to a scenario) with weighted per-option scoring (0/1/2 points) — delivered one question at a time in the standard on-screen format, NOT a separate interactive simulation module. Corrected 2026-07-27: this config previously called it 'simulation-based,' matching a claim also found unsupported for Nebraska and West Virginia this session — none of CLAUDE.md's original '3 simulation states' held up against their actual handbooks.
