NMLS 房贷经纪执照(SAFE MLO) pass rate & how retakes work
PrepPass has not verified whether NMLS — MLO Testing and Education (CSBS) publishes a pass rate for the NMLS 房贷经纪执照(SAFE MLO) 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 "NMLS 房贷经纪执照(SAFE MLO) 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 NMLS — MLO Testing and Education (CSBS) before you rely on it.

Is there a published NMLS 房贷经纪执照(SAFE MLO) pass rate?
We don't know, and we would rather say so than guess. PrepPass has not yet read NMLS — MLO Testing and Education (CSBS)'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 "NMLS 房贷经纪执照(SAFE MLO)pass rate" percentage you find online as an unofficial estimate unless it links to an authority document you can open yourself.
