Why D is correct
TIC 4001.151-.156 place quantitative guardrails on the temporary license program: no more than 500 temporary licenses may be outstanding to one agency in a calendar year, at least 70 percent of the temporary licensees must sit for the licensing examination, and at least 50 percent of those who take it must pass. Those guardrails keep a temporary license a short-term bridge to a regularly licensed agent rather than a permanent substitute for the examination system.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) The 500 cap is correct, but the examination participation and passage requirements cannot be avoided.
- B) The ceiling is 500 per calendar year, not 50, and the statute requires examination participation rather than universal passage.
- C) The program is capped and conditioned on examination participation; it is not unlimited.
Memory hook
500 a year, 70 percent sit, 50 percent pass.
