REAL ESTATE LICENSE REQUIREMENTS FOR PASSING THE ILLINOIS REAL ESTATE EXAM
Once you complete the course (minimum 15 hours of live instruction and the online quizzes), you have fulfilled all of IDFPR’s requirements and are eligible to take the state licensing exam. Students no longer have to pass a course final exam to be eligible for the state licensing exam, but are required to take chapter quizzes and score at least 75% on each. We still encourage all students to take what used to be our course final exam as a “Sample Exam”. This will allow you to test yourself on how well you know the information. The sample exam is offered online and a link is sent out to all students at the end of each course. The sample exam contains 125 multiple-choice questions. You’ll have 3 ½ hours to complete the test, and a score of 75% is considered passing (results are provided immediately upon completion).
From the time that you complete your course, you have up to two years to take and pass the state exam and apply for your license with the state; you can take it as soon as two business days after meeting the course requirements. The state exam is administered 6 days per week at locations around the Chicago area, or online 7 days a week throughout the year. You’ll be emailed written directions for signing up for the state exam, when you finish your course. The registration process is done online – you are emailed a certificate when you pass the class.

The online material was easy to manage and the accessibility to review materials made this course challenging yet easy to work through.
The online instructors were just amazing. I'm so happy I made this choice to come here.
Mr. McNeal was an amazing instructor! He gave us plenty of exam prep and everything he discussed was on the exam. I passed on the first try thanks to him. I can’t thank him enough for his knowledge.
