The realtor’s test was a wall that could not be overcome by cramming for five months. The reporter prepared for five months starting in May and defied the 31st official brokerage exam on the 31st. But it was never an easy test.
On the morning of the 31st, a reporter who took two subjects for the first round of the real estate agent test and left a high school classroom in Michuhol-gu, Incheon had no choice but to promise next year. The reporter who took the first 80-question quiz, which started at 9 a.m. and finished in 110 minutes, was found to have been eliminated without getting a false score. The amount of study was very insufficient after 5 months of free time in parallel with work. Besides the second course, ‘Civil Law and Special Civil Law, Real Estate Brokerage Regulations’, not even the first course, ‘Introduction to Real Estate Studies’, which I thought would be relatively easy, could not be touched properly.
Employment delayed by Corona 19, to test site
On this day, 340,076 people, including journalists, turned out in droves to the exams carried out across the country. It is the highest number of applicants since the public intermediation system was introduced in 1983. It is equal to the number of high school students 3 (340.6673) among the 2021 SAT candidates.
Kim Mo (24), a woman he met after taking the test at 11:10 am, drove with her father from Seongdong-gu, Seoul for about an hour to the Incheon testing center. Mr. Kim said today is his first challenge and that he graduated from college this year but tried to become a real estate agent because the accepted company delayed his incorporation.
Mr. Kim said, “When I had to get training, they suddenly put me off,” he said. “When I was resting at home, I tried to do the test with my father and took a look.” This is her third challenge for her father, Kim Mo, 53, who took the test with Kim. The recent surge and unrest in the real estate sector is said to have triggered the realtor exam.
My father Kim said, “At first, I wanted to know more about the real estate market, so I started studying,” he said. “I am taking an exam to prepare for my retirement.” During a conversation with her father, her daughter, Kim, said, “Tell me that the price of the house in Seoul is too high.”
The largest number of candidates in history flock to the ‘Pass Exam’
In 2018, when his father, Kim, began preparing for the exam, there were 32,577 students taking the real estate agent exam. The number of test takers, which had increased through 2018, to 275.3251 in 2016 and 3.05316 in 2017, decreased to 2.98227 last year. Then again this year, they increased by about 50,000 people.
On this day with the largest number of candidates in history, many candidates came to take the exam from remote areas. The 36-year-old Kim, who met on the school grounds, also came from Yangcheon-gu, Seoul, to the test site. Kim said, “I was trying to select a test site a bit late, so I couldn’t find the test site in Seoul,” he said. “I heard it was difficult to find a test site, especially this year.”
Mr. Kim, who works as a real estate brokerage assistant, said: “There are many colleagues in the industry who are confused because the real estate market is so different from before.” He added that “the number of jeonse and sales decreased significantly due to government regulations related to trade or loan regulations, and the number of jobs was also reduced.”
Mr. Choi, 38, who left around 5 questions due to time constraints, said: “I took the test because I thought that the retirement age would not be guaranteed to the company I currently attend.” “I plan to try to pass in two years.”
Professor Shim Gyo-eon, from Konkuk University’s Real Estate Department, predicted that “the number of registered brokerage examiners is moving in line with the real estate economics.”
