This is a training format: it does not reproduce the official exam format.
Rule 41 duties, sole and designated agency, transaction brokerage, trust money, the Residential Measurement Standard, caveats under the Land Titles Act and the Condominium Property Act: the material RECA's blueprints describe.
Fundamentals of Real Estate (120 questions), Practice of Residential, Practice of Commercial, and a property management, condominium and rural set (100 questions each, 3 hours), plus shorter Fundamentals and Practice of Condominium Management sets (50 and 40 questions). Pass mark 70 % on all six.
Commissions and GST, RMS areas and the 2 % tolerance, property taxes, cap rates, NOI and net effective rent: every calculation question shows its working in the explanation.

No. RECA's exam questions are confidential and we do not reproduce them. Every one of our 1,850 questions is written from scratch from public sources: the Real Estate Act, the Real Estate Act Rules, the Condominium Property Act and its Regulation, the Land Titles Act, the Municipal Government Act, the Residential Tenancies Act, PIPA, FINTRAC guidance, the Residential Measurement Standard and RECA's competency blueprints.
No. For Fundamentals, Residential, Commercial and the management set we use the format RECA publishes in its Exam FAQs: 120 questions for Fundamentals and 100 questions for the other exams, 3 hours and a 70 % pass mark. The two condominium management sets are shorter than RECA's exams while their question banks are small: 50 questions in 75 minutes for Fundamentals of Condominium Management (RECA: 120 questions in 3 hours) and 40 questions in 72 minutes for Practice of Condominium Management (RECA: 100 questions in 3 hours), with the same 70 % pass mark. RECA's exams also use other item types (multiple response, matching, fill in the blank, hot spot, spreadsheet), while our questions are all single-answer multiple choice with four options. Our topic mix follows RECA's weighting charts and blueprints as closely as our topics allow; it is our estimate, not RECA's distribution.
Six practice exams: Fundamentals of Real Estate, Practice of Residential Real Estate, Practice of Commercial Real Estate, a combined property management, condominium management and rural set, Fundamentals of Condominium Management (FCM) and Practice of Condominium Management (PCM). Pick one in the menu; practice and progress follow your choice. Mortgage brokerage is not covered here.
No. RECA's list of pre-licensing exams has no separate commercial fundamentals exam: a commercial candidate writes Fundamentals of Real Estate, then Practice of Commercial Real Estate (PCRE). Our Commercial practice exam draws on six topics: commercial leasing and investment analysis, plus five topics built on the PCRE blueprint (professional conduct, prospecting and marketing, property research and land use, market and financial analysis, documents, offers and closing).
Yes. Fundamentals of Condominium Management (FCM) and Practice of Condominium Management (PCM) each have their own practice exam and study notes: 100 questions in all, on the Condominium Property Act, the Condominium Property Regulation, the Real Estate Act Rules for condominium managers, PIPA and RECA's FCM and PCM blueprints. The questions follow the 2027 blueprints, which take effect on January 1, 2027; until December 31, 2026 RECA's 2025 blueprints apply (the same FCM weights; two PCM competencies are merged in 2027).
According to RECA's Exam FAQs, you can write a pre-licensing exam twice within the three-month exam period that starts when your course provider sets you to Ready for Exam. If you do not pass, you must re-enrol in the course; writing the same exam four consecutive times triggers a three-month cooling-off period. Always check RECA's current rules before you book.
Yes, at any time from your account, with no notice period and no penalty. The subscription renews automatically every month until you cancel; cancelling stops the next renewal and your access continues to the end of the period already paid for.
No. You must complete your pre-licensing course with a RECA-approved provider before you can book the exam. This platform is a practice tool: it drills the material and shows you where you are weak. It does not enrol you, register you or issue any licence.
No. AlbertaRealEstateExam is an independent private study platform. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or associated with the Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA), Pearson VUE or any course provider. Only RECA licenses real estate professionals in Alberta.
The bank was written in October and November 2026 against the Real Estate Act as amended to September 1, 2026, the current Real Estate Act Rules, the Condominium Property Act and Regulation, and RECA's published blueprints. The condominium management blueprints change on January 1, 2027. If a rule changes after that, always check the current version at the official source.
Yes. The platform is fully responsive, so the question bank, the study notes and the practice exams work the same on a phone, a tablet or a desktop.
