Connecticut Real Estate Broker pass rate & how retakes work
PrepPass has not verified whether Connecticut Real Estate Commission (DCP) publishes a pass rate for the Connecticut 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 "Connecticut 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: 75%. Confirm it on Connecticut Real Estate Commission (DCP) 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 461+ free Connecticut Real Estate Broker practice questions with answer explanations and a full timed mock exam — no signup required.

Is there a published Connecticut Real Estate Broker pass rate?
We don't know, and we would rather say so than guess. PrepPass has not yet read Connecticut Real Estate Commission (DCP)'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 "Connecticut Real Estate Brokerpass rate" percentage you find online as an unofficial estimate unless it links to an authority document you can open yourself.

What is the Connecticut Real Estate Broker pass rate?+
PrepPass has not verified whether Connecticut Real Estate Commission (DCP) 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 Connecticut Real Estate Broker exam?+
The published passing standard is 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 Connecticut Real Estate Commission (DCP) before you rely on it.
What happens if you fail the Connecticut 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 Connecticut?+
The Connecticut Real Estate Commission, within the Department of Consumer Protection (DCP), licenses brokers and salespersons. The Commission contracts with PSI to deliver its exams.
What experience do I need before the Connecticut broker exam?+
C.G.S. § 20-314(d) requires three years actively engaged as a licensed Connecticut salesperson under a supervising licensee, at least 1,500 hours in the business, and at least four closed transactions in those three years, plus 120 classroom hours: 60 in Real Estate Principles and Practices, 15 in Legal Compliance, 15 in Real Estate Brokerage Principles and Practices and two 15-hour electives. DCP waives the electives for an applicant with 20 transactions in the previous five years.
How is the Connecticut broker exam structured?+
