The handbook gives a scaled passing score of 70 for sales agents and 75 for brokers, on the general part and on the state part. A scaled score is not a percent of questions.
Are these the real Utah real estate exam questions?
No. They are our own, written from the Utah Code and the administrative rules. This site has never seen the exam, and no licensed Utah broker or attorney has reviewed the answers yet.
