Before applying for a license, an applicant must pass an examination within what time frame?

6 months.
12 months.
18 months.
24 months.

The correct answer is: 12 months.

To obtain a real estate license in Virginia, applicants are required to pass a qualifying examination. This examination must be completed within a specific time frame to ensure that the applicant's knowledge remains relevant and up-to-date. In Virginia, the requirement states that the examination must be passed within 12 months prior to the application for a license. Choosing 12 months reflects the regulatory intent to maintain a standard of competency among new licensees, ensuring that they are knowledgeable about recent laws, procedures, and market conditions. This time frame allows applicants adequate opportunity to prepare for the exam and ensures that their license application process begins promptly after demonstrating their understanding of necessary concepts. The other time frames, such as 6 months, 18 months, and 24 months, do not align with Virginia's licensing regulations, which specifically stipulate the 12-month requirement as optimal for maintaining the necessary knowledge for effective practice in real estate.
