How to use it in your final week
- Front-load Georgia State License Law & Practice (GREC / O.C.G.A. 43-40 / BRRETA) — at about 31% of the exam it is the largest single area, and on a two-portion state exam the state-law material is where most repeat candidates lose points.
- Then work Real Estate Contracts & Agency (national) (14%) — the sheet leads there with elements of a valid contract.
- Then work Real Property Characteristics, Land Use & Legal Descriptions (national) (10%) — the sheet leads there with real vs. personal property & fixtures.
- Drill the traps until they are reflex — the one that catches most Georgia candidates is do NOT carry a strong national score into the state portion.
- Read the sheet the morning of your appointment for a last pass on the memory hooks, and confirm your exam details with the Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) before test day.
