Do I need to take the state exam if I am licensed in another state?

If you are licensed in one of eight states with a mutual recognition agreement with Florida, you will only need to take the Florida law portion of the state exam. This part of the exam consists of 40 multiple-choice questions. You must obtain a score of at least 30 correct answers to pass the exam. The eight states with mutual recognition agreements are: Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Mississippi, Nebraska, and Rhode Island. If you hold a real estate license in a state other than one of these eight, you will need to take the entire exam.
