Where the handbook contradicts itself
We list these instead of quietly picking one. If a number above is affected, confirm with the exam vendor before test day.
- Principal BrokerNational item count: summary table (p.9) says 75 items (80 points) for Principal Broker; the Principal Broker exam description (p.12) says 'The national section consists of 80 multiple choice questions.' The 75/80-points form matches the PSI national broker format used in other states' bulletins, but the bulletin itself is internally inconsistent.
