Alaska Real Estate Broker pass rate & how retakes work

Quick answer

PrepPass has not verified whether Alaska Real Estate Commission (DCCED) publishes a pass rate for the Alaska Real Estate Broker exam, so we are not going to give you a percentage. Some exam authorities publish pass rates in annual or sunset-review reports rather than on their exam pages, and others genuinely publish none — until we have read the authority's own documents for this exam, we would only be guessing which it is. What we can tell you is that any exact "Alaska Real Estate Broker pass rate" figure you find on a prep site that does not cite an authority document is an unofficial estimate. Ask what it cites. The passing standard is a different thing from a pass rate, and for this exam it is published: Scaled score of 75. Confirm it on Alaska Real Estate Commission (DCCED) before you rely on it.

The best way to pass on the first try

Retakes cost time and, often, another exam fee — so the goal is to pass the first time. The most reliable way is to practice real questions until you consistently clear the standard you need. PrepPass has 476+ free Alaska Real Estate Broker practice questions with answer explanations and a full timed mock exam — no signup required.

Is there a published Alaska Real Estate Broker pass rate?

We don't know, and we would rather say so than guess. PrepPass has not yet read Alaska Real Estate Commission (DCCED)'s own publications for this exam, so we cannot tell you either that a pass rate exists or that one does not. Both claims are claims about the authority, and both need a source.

This matters more than it sounds. Pass rates often sit somewhere other than the exam page — in an annual report, a legislative sunset review, or a statistics dashboard. California's contractor board, for one, publishes its Law & Business pass rate in a report to the Legislature and nowhere else, which is why almost no prep site has it. So the absence of a figure on the registration page is not evidence that none is published.

Until we have checked, treat any exact "Alaska Real Estate Brokerpass rate" percentage you find online as an unofficial estimate unless it links to an authority document you can open yourself.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Alaska Real Estate Broker pass rate?+

PrepPass has not verified whether Alaska Real Estate Commission (DCCED) publishes one, so we do not state a figure. Any exact percentage you see on a prep site that does not cite an authority document is an unofficial estimate rather than a number from the exam authority.

What score do you need to pass the Alaska Real Estate Broker exam?+

The published passing standard is Scaled score of 75. That is the authority's figure, not ours, and it is a passing SCORE — the bar you personally have to clear — not a pass RATE. Confirm it on Alaska Real Estate Commission (DCCED) before you rely on it.

What happens if you fail the Alaska Real Estate Broker exam?+

You can retake it. The authority may require a waiting period between attempts, so check the official page for the current rule. Working through practice questions until you consistently clear the standard you need is the most reliable way to do better next time.

Who regulates real estate brokers in Alaska?+

The Alaska Real Estate Commission, within the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing, licenses real estate brokers, associate brokers, and salespersons. The Commission contracts with Pearson VUE to develop, administer, and score both the national and the Alaska state law portions of the licensing exam.

What experience do I need before the Alaska broker exam?+

Alaska broker applicants must be at least 22 years old (12 AAC 64.059) and must have had at least 36 months of active and continuous experience as a real estate licensee within the 60 months immediately preceding application (AS 08.88.171(a)). "Active and continuous" is defined in 12 AAC 64.990(a) as holding a current active license with no single break of more than 30 days caused by failing to affiliate with an employing broker and file the application — so it is not quite the same as 36 unbroken months. Applicants must also complete 30 hours of commission-approved broker training education within the 18 months immediately preceding application, and file the license application within six months of passing the exam.

How is the Alaska broker exam structured?+

The Alaska broker exam is one four-hour session covering two portions: a national/general portion of 80 scored items plus 5 pretest items, and an Alaska state law portion of 60 scored items plus 5 to 10 pretest items. Results are reported as a scaled score from 0 to 100 and a scaled score of 75 is required to pass, so the number reported is neither the count nor the percentage of questions answered correctly.
