Real Estate Online Review Demo Online Quiz
RESAR on Feb 14 2011 | Filed under: General, Real Estate Review
Here is an example of an online quiz for those preparing for the Real Estate Brokers’ Licensure Exams which the PRC will be conducting. This assumes you have a speedy and reliable internet broadband connection, and that you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed in your computer…
You will notice that when you take the RESAR Online Quiz again, the questions will be shuffled. This ensures that you are truly learning and reviewing, and not simply memorizing the sequence of answers.
You will also see a “Review Feedback” button.
There are times when members of the RESAR Online Review post questions about certain quiz answers. In such cases, we edit the online quiz so that you can see the explanation behind the chosen answer.
For example, if the answer to a quiz question is “None of the Above”, and if the RESAR Online Review member asked: “So, what’s the correct answer?”, then we provide the actual answer which you will see when you click on the “Review Feedback” button.
In other cases, the “Review Feedback” button will show you a link that leads to a webpage where you will find an online discussion pertaining to that particular online quiz question.
When you try the online quiz demo, you’ll find a question about what is the minimum carriageway of major roads of socialized housing projects.
When you review your online quiz answers and you reach that question, the “Review Feedback” button will show you a link that leads to a webpage used as a basis for the answer.
With the RESAR Online Review Online Quizzes, you are not simply going through a list of questions and multiple choice answers. You also have the opportunity to see the basis for the answers, or read (and even participate in) the online discussion with your fellow RESAR Online Review members.
The result: You learn faster and retain the information longer. This helps you improve your chances of scoring higher in the real estate brokers’ exam.
Those Comprehensive Real Estate Seminar and Review or CRESAR sessions require an investment of your money, and more importantly, your TIME. That’s why you need every tool and advantage you can get, to help you achieve your real estate career goals and dreams faster.
We look forward to seeing you inside the web-based membership area. Join the RESAR Online Review today! 🙂

Hi Mr. Admin,
What are the prerequisites in taking an REB examination?
Can any one who holds a degree in any discipline take the REB examination? Please let me know what these disciplines (courses) are.
Thank you.
Some people earn those 120 units by enrolling in a 120-hour Comprehensive Real Estate Seminar and Review or CRESAR. Thanks!

Simple solution:
Let x = cost
r = rate of profit in %, in this case it is 30% or .3
SP = selling price
all you need to do is substitute values in the formulated equation:
cost + profit = S.P.
where profit is = rate x cost
x +.3x = P1,950,000.00
1.3x = P1,950,000.00
x = P1,950,000.00/1.3
x = P1,500,000.00 –> this is the seller’s cost.
I think the best answer is the one that is stated in Section “expropriation” which is more likely appropriate or closest to the question than “accretion”.
Can I avail of the online review? Its barely 12 days to go before the exams.
may i ask how did u arrive at the answer of 1, 500, 000 in question number 8 of the demo quiz. as i have computed, it should be 1, 365, 000.tnx
Perhaps, just like you, we remember those business math courses in college which talk about a Gross Profit Rate, which is equivalent to Gross Profit divided by Sales (where Gross Profit = Sales – Cost).
If the Gross Profit Rate were equal to 30%, and the Selling Price were P1,950,000 then yes, the cost of the property should be P1,365,000 (or 70% x P1,950,000).
But here’s the thing: The quiz question does not deal with Gross Profit Rate.
Here’s the question (we won’t say it is Question Number 8, because the questions are shuffled in random order each time the quiz is taken): “The seller realized a 30% gross profit over his cost. If the property was sold at P1,950,000 the cost was..?”
Please take note of “gross profit over his cost.”
That’s not Gross Profit Rate (GPR), because GPR is gross profit over sales.
Yes, we do know that a 30% gross profit technically means a GPR of 30% (or a 30% gross profit over sales), but based on the actual answer given in that past REB exam, it’s clear that the person who originally formulated that question and answer was not thinking about GPR. Hopefully in the future, REB exam questions will be better worded.
Perhaps the Questioner should have worded it this way: “The seller realized a gross profit of 30% of his cost…”
But anyway…
Here’s how to set-up the equation, based on the Questioner’s intent:
Sales (130%)
Less: Cost (100%)
Equals: Gross Profit (30%)
From the above we can see that the Gross Profit is 30% of the Cost, which means Sales is 130% of the Cost, because Sales minus Cost equals Gross Profit.
[True, the above set-up shows a Selling Price which is 30% over the Cost (not a Gross Profit of 30% over the Cost). We just set it up that way to explain why the Questioner placed P1,500,000 in the Answer Key many years ago. At least now you know how some Questioners think when it comes to their past REB Exam questions.]
Since Sales is 130% of the Cost, and we are asked to compute for the Cost, let’s divide Sales (P1,950,000) by 130% (or 1.3) and we get a Cost of P1,500,000.
We do understand where you’re coming from, though, because back in school, we have always been taught about Gross Profit and Gross Profit Rate. That’s why we tend to automatically divide Gross Profit over Sales.
When you review with your CRESAR service providers who will also give you sample quizzes, please take note that some of these questions were crafted in the past by people who did not strictly follow the usual treatment of Gross Profit and Gross Profit Rate.
With that in mind, please read each mathematical or computational question carefully, and look at it from different angles. Assume that the person who crafted the question will not always follow what was taught in Business Math before in college.
Thanks!

clarify q lang re no. 1 d po b 50yrs lang po un?
may adobe nako pero diko talaga mabuksan yun online demo quiz.please help me.i would like to avail of your review but i have to try first in my computer…
I would like to clear the answer in quiz demo #16 The following modes of acquiring land under Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992, except: the answer is expropriation, but accretion is not given under Sec. 10 of UDHA of 1992. It only states, Provided, however, That expropriation shall be resorted to only when other models of acquisition have been exhausted: Provided, further, That where expropriation is resorted to, parcels of land owned by small property owners shall be exempted for purposes of this Act. Even in Sec. 9 for the priorities in the acquisition of land, accretion is not stated their.
As defined, ACCRETION is the act by which a land bordering a stream of body of water increases its area by the gradual deposit of soil of the river or other natural processes caused by the current.
Please clarify.
Thank you.
Some have argued that the phrase “among others” can include accretion.
Others have also said that the part which says: “where expropriations is resorted to, parcels of land owned by small property owners shall be exempted for purpose of this Act” means you can’t expropriate the land of small property owners for UDHA purposes.
While even others have reasonably pointed out the “expropriation” is listed among the modes of acquisition.
And still others have countered that the phrase “provided, however…” qualifies what kind of expropriation will be considered a mode of acquisition.
Confusing, isn’t it?
Perhaps that’s why some of the recommended answers of past quizzes chose “Expropriation” as the mode to exclude.
We suggest you take this up with your CRESAR service providers and see which answer (Accretion or Expropriation) they choose.
Thanks!
