The Wisconsin exam at a glance
Pearson VUE-administered exam for the Wisconsin Real Estate Examining Board. Salesperson 140 scored items in 4 hours; broker 100 scored items in 3.25 hours (195 min) -- both totals verified. Verified against the Pearson VUE Wisconsin Real Estate Candidate Handbook (#095000), 'Exam Time Limits' and the state content outlines, 2026-07-27. Wisconsin delivers a single combined sitting, not separately timed national/state portions, so this is modelled as 'combined' with a single overall timer and pass mark. The national/state item split (stateQuestionShare) is still a proportional estimate, not a published breakdown -- unchanged from the prior modelling, only no longer presented as two independently timed, independently scored sections it never was.

Sample Wisconsin law questions

Under Wisconsin Statutes 452.01(3), definitions of agency terms such as client, customer, and firm are established primarily to:
Set the commission rate a broker may charge
Clarify exactly which duties a licensee owes to each party in a transaction
Determine the purchase price of residential property
Establish property tax assessment procedures
Show answer & explanation
Clarify exactly which duties a licensee owes to each party in a transaction — Section 452.01(3)'s definitions distinguish clients from customers so that licensees and consumers both know which fiduciary-level duties apply in a given relationship.
