How many chances does an applicant have to take the state exam before the application becomes void?

An applicant for a Nevada contractor's license is permitted to take the state exam a maximum of three times before their application becomes void. This regulation ensures that individuals have ample opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of the necessary laws, practices, and responsibilities associated with being a licensed contractor.

If a candidate does not pass the exam within those three attempts, the application is considered void, and they would need to reapply to start the process anew. This policy is set to maintain a standard of competency among those who are granted a contractor's license, ensuring that only qualified individuals enter into the contractor profession.
