Pre-Exam Prep Cram Course:
Roland School of Real Estate conducts a pre-exam prep cram class for those students who desire additional preparation for either (or both) the end-of-course and state exams. The preparation gives numerous helps on “How to Take a Multiple-Choice Exam” and a comprehensive review of the course material, covering up to 600 multiple-questions. The purpose of the questions is to prepare the students for taking multiple-choice end-of-course and state exams and giving a review of the course material. The questions are presented so as to benefit and aid the student rather than overwhelm and confuse. In no way are the questions represented as being questions known to be or to have been on the state exam.
The Pre-Exam Prep Cram Courses are held on the Saturdays that just precede the Monday End-of-Course Exams to fully prepare the student for both the end-of-course exam and the state exam. (Since the Cram Course is open to students who have taken the course from other schools, it is not uncommon to hear a student say, “I wish I had taken Gary Roland’s class first!”
45-HOUR POST-LICENSE COURSE (1-WEEK COURSE) REQUIRED FOR ALL NEWLY LICENSED SALES ASSOCIATES:
March 3-7 (M-F from 8 am to 5 pm)
Cost of the Post-License Course: $295 ($280, if paid at least one week prior to class beginning), which includes the in-class instruction, the textbook, one scheduled end-of-course exam, your pass certificate, and notification of successful completion to the Florida Division of Real Estate.
