Pass Florida vs The CE Shop vs Colibri: 2026 Florida Comparison

Reviewed October 20, 2026. Pass Florida publishes this comparison and sells the app discussed. The school observations come from public product pages and terms. We did not complete paid courses or establish an independently measured teaching-quality winner.

Compare the product you actually need

Verify the specific school and course approval through DBPR's real estate commission resources. The school issues course-completion evidence. DBPR evaluates licensing eligibility, and Pearson administers the state examination. Buying a course or an app does not book your exam or approve your application.

Current Florida package prices

These advertised prices were displayed on October 20, 2026. They are snapshots, not a promise that a promotion or checkout total will remain available.

Check the CE Shop package page and Colibri Florida page immediately before buying. Compare the exact inclusions rather than the package name. A discount on a larger bundle can still cost more than the smaller product you need.

What to inspect in The CE Shop package

The CE Shop's Florida catalog lists the 63-hour course and tiered additions, including Exam Prep Edge, career development and postlicensing in relevant packages. Confirm the selected tier's order summary before assuming a feature is included.

Its Florida course listing describes six months of prelicensing access with an automatic one-month extension. Its general terms separately describe 15-month Exam Prep Edge access. These are different tools with different clocks.

The purchase refund conditions are also different: course requests generally need to be within 30 days, before expiration and with no more than 50% completed. For Exam Prep Edge, the terms require the request within 30 days and before completing the initial assessment. Check the applicable agreement before starting that assessment if you are still deciding whether to keep the product.

That restriction is useful buying information, not evidence that a product is good or bad. It tells you when the decision becomes harder to reverse.

What to inspect in Colibri's package

Colibri's Florida page distinguishes required coursework from tiers adding simulated exams, flashcards, a readiness tracker, live Q&A, cram webinars and printed material. Course narration and AI support are also advertised. Check the exact package and support schedule you would buy.

The provider's withdrawal FAQ describes a 30-day request window for online courses, different livestream conditions and exclusions for completed coursework or certain completed package components. Physical materials and shipping are not refundable under that FAQ; packages with textbooks can have a refund fee.

The separate Pass or Don't Pay terms exclude Florida, even though a general guarantee message appears on the Florida marketing page. Do not budget for an exam-failure refund. Ask support to confirm your selected package's course, prep and live-session access end dates in writing; this review does not assign one unverified access period to every Colibri product.

What the app can add, and where it cannot help

Pass Florida provides 1,142 questions organized across the 19 exam areas, explanations, Math Coach and study modes. The free account has limited access, including a 30-question diagnostic. Full paid access is a one-time unlock while the service is maintained.

It does not provide 63-hour credit, live teaching, required postlicensing or a pass guarantee. A practice app can help you spot a recurring mistake; it cannot substitute for asking an instructor to explain a concept you still do not understand.

A useful reason to add it would be: "I need short Florida-specific practice sessions on my phone, and the explanations make sense to me." A weaker reason would be: "My course score is high, but buying another product must make me safer." Test the missing function before adding a purchase.

Which package fits your stage?

You have not started school. Compare approval, format, total price, access and instructor contact. Ask which extras you will actually use. A package with postlicensing may be convenient, but check when that component expires and whether it matches your future renewal need.

You are midway through school. Finish the relevant lessons and use the support and practice already included. Keep a question list for the instructor instead of buying another course to avoid a difficult chapter.

You passed the school final. Use unfamiliar mixed questions to identify remaining gaps. The course final versus state exam guide explains why one result does not certify the other.

You did not pass the state exam. Start with your score report and error log. A new bank can provide more practice, but a targeted explanation or tutoring session may be more useful for a repeated misunderstanding. See the retake plan.

Use school and practice together

After a lesson, answer a few questions without notes. Record misses and guesses, then explain which fact controls the answer. Revisit the issue later with changed facts.

For example, do not stop at memorizing the words "single agent" and "transaction broker." Explain which duties differ and what consent is needed to transition. Use the Florida relationships guide alongside your course material. For calculation errors, inspect the setup in the worked math questions.

Keep one error log across tools. Different provider scores should not be averaged into an individual pass probability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Pass Florida replace The CE Shop or Colibri course?

No. Pass Florida provides practice, not prelicensing course credit.

Do all course packages include exam prep?

No. Compare the selected tier. A required-course package and a bundle with additional exam preparation are different offers.

Can Florida candidates use Colibri's Pass or Don't Pay guarantee?

The linked guarantee terms exclude Florida. A purchase cancellation policy is a separate question and has its own conditions.

Which school is better for Florida?

This public-source review does not establish a teaching-quality winner. Choose using verified approval, the format you can complete, usable support, access and the actual purchase terms.

Should I buy an app as well as my school package?

Only if it fills a specific gap. Check your included practice and sample the additional app before purchasing.
