Study Tips for Oregon Success
1. Master Oregon Statutes: The Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 696 and Administrative Rules 863 are the foundation of many exam questions. Study them directly from the Oregon Real Estate Agency website.
2. Practice Regularly: Consistent daily practice is more effective than cramming. Aim for at least 10-15 questions per day leading up to your exam.
3. Focus on Weak Areas: After each practice session, identify topics where you're struggling and dedicate extra study time to those areas.
4. Understand, Don't Memorize: The exam tests comprehension, not just recall. Make sure you understand why answers are correct, not just which ones are right.
5. Use Multiple Resources: Combine these practice questions with your 150-hour pre-licensing course materials, Agency publications, and Oregon statutes.
