Question 1

Who administers the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination?

Accepted Answer

Indiana Real Estate Commission, through the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency (IPLA) — exam delivered by Pearson VUE

Indiana's entry-level license is broker; there is no separate salesperson license. Candidates first complete a 90-hour pre-licensing course, and both portions must be passed within 1 year of completing it. IPLA announced that exams from March 3, 2025 are scheduled through Pearson VUE.

Question 2

How many questions are on the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination?

Accepted Answer

145 questions. Pearson VUE lists 145 total questions. The national portion has 80 scored items plus 5 unscored pretest items; the Indiana state portion has 50 scored items plus 5 to 10 unscored pretest items. Pretest items are not identified.

Question 3

How long is the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination?

Accepted Answer

240 minutes. Pearson VUE lists this as the seat time for the broker exam (both portions).

Question 4

What is the passing score for the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination?

Accepted Answer

Not published by Pearson VUE / IPLA. The handbook sets a scaled passing score of 75, set by IPLA with Pearson VUE, but publishes no scale range, and says the scaled score is neither the number nor the percentage of questions answered correctly — so it is not shown as a percentage here. Passing candidates are not given a numeric score. A candidate who passes one portion and fails the other retakes only the failed portion; results are good for 1 year.

Question 5

How much does the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination cost?

Accepted Answer

$55 — Real Estate Broker examination fee (Pearson VUE, per attempt)

Paid to Pearson VUE when booking; non-refundable except when cancelled at least 48 hours ahead. The IPLA license application fee is not shown because we did not find it on an IPLA page read today.

Question 6

What languages is the Indiana Real Estate Broker Examination offered in?

Accepted Answer
