Wanted to say thank you to Jack and the Americasprofessor team for their time and effort putting this course material together. I passed both the L&H and P&C on the first try! Jacks sense of humor and style of presenting the material made it all much easier to get through and remember.
Thank you all again!

Thank you so much! With this course I was more than prepared for my exam and passed on the first try! I will definitely be using you again when its time for me to study for the Life, Accident, and Health license.

I passed the SC LAH on the first try. The material was similar. But there were many questions on the exam that were not in your test bank. Thankfully, your course covered enough for me to pass. AP RESPONSE: Congrats on passing your exam, DWG! We teach the content listed on the Test Provider's TCO that way our students can answer their exam questions, or make an educated guess. The Test Providers will have many variations of questions testing each point which is why it's important for us to TEACH our students the material. We will never (nor will any other courses) have the same questions in our test bank as what the Test Provider has (big No No). If you feel there was some content specifically not covered please let us know and we will put the Content Team to work! :) Again, congrats on passing your exam.

Thank you, Jack...I thoroughly enjoyed your lectures and the organization of your course material. Wish I could have had you for a course in college. By the way...passed my South Carolina exam the first time with a 91+ score!

This guy makes it easy for you to remember the information. I took this class, and it went by much faster than P&C! I was able to pass my test on the 1st try with an 88%. you may find him a little goofy and corny at 1st but I am here to tell you that his methods work and that's all I care about! Thank you so much I am now happily working for a State Farm agent and loving what I do!

The material presented in the course was very beneficial and passing the exam on the first attempt was both encouraging to myself in being successful in the insurance industry as well as testament to how the material was presented in the course videos, text and the quizzes provided.

When I first heard about AP, I must admit that I was skeptical. I was previously enrolled in a course that offered a slide show and a few reading materials. I was not retaining the material with this method..
I came to AP especially because of the teaching videos. I learn better when I see, hear, and write the material. During my study at AP, I was able to view the videos and materials several times, which helped me retain the material. I am happy to say that I passed my exam on the first try, and had no problems doing so. Even though some of the terminology used on my exam was different from what I had been taught, because I was familiar with the concepts, I was able to pass. I am greatly satisfied with AP's teaching and help!

When it came time for me to choose an online teaching opportunity to help me with my insurance test, I looked at lots and lots of different companies. Each of them had something positive to offer. I chose America's Professor because it looked like a very straightforward program. What I did not expect was for the people connected with America's Professor to be so friendly, helpful, and really go above the call of duty to make the process so personal. It's very good to talk to someone about any questions or clarification and their response was always very quickly. I was talking to a real human being. I passed the insurance test on the first try! I fully recommend Americas Professor for all of your training needs.

Well these tests are hard not going to lie! They try to trick you with the types of questions they provide. I went over the material (just the video sections) in America's Professor twice. I felt that I had a much better understanding the second time around. I went to take the test and passed with an 81 the first time I took it. I did take the advice of making at least a 90 on all of my practice test at the end of each section video. What can I say this course worked! Thank you America's Professor!

If you watch all the videos and take all the quizzes until you can pass then you will definitely pass the exam! It really helped me to read the chapters before watching the videos though, that way I didn't ever feel lost because the information wasn't brand new. I did pass my exam on the first try! Will definitely be using AP for SC LA&H!

I took my time and really did what he suggested in taking the tests and studying until i got at least 90% on every test. I really pushed for this. His examples are interesting and help me remember even though sometimes they may seem dated :) I passed my exam with an 80.6% and apparently for my state that is a really good score. The agent i have been talking to was very impressed and so was the test Proctor! Thank you so much i was so happy i nearly shouted in the exam room

This was an incredible class. I came into this not knowing anything about insurance, and after finishing the class I have passed the test, gotten a job, and know so much more about insurance! The tests are not easy, this class is a must!

I used a different course to study for my Accident, Life and Health exam. I failed it twice and got frustrated. After a little research I purchased America's Professor. I studied about half way through and took the test again. Guess what? I failed again. I took another week and finished the course and guess what? I passed! AP people really do pass! Thanks Jack!

OMG........WHERE DO I BEGIN???? AP is so amazing. I had previously passed SC PC and decided to keep going with SC LH. I received extension after extension due to long work hours and didn't think I would complete the course. Two weeks ago I decided to schedule a date to take the course with over half of the chapters still untouched. Needless to say, I crammed late nights and early mornings and did not skip out on my test today and I PASSED!!! THANKS JACK !!!!!!!!

I really enjoyed the series. Passed the first time. The practice tests and reviews were excellent. I enjoyed Morton's dry humor (reminds me of me). I would recommend to anyone interested in passing the exam!

Passed SC Property & Casualty exam with 85% grade! You only need a 70% to pass so was pleasantly surprised that I answered correctly based on the memory recall from the AP course. It took about 2 weeks at my pace to complete entire program. You could do in one week if you dedicated 6-8 hours a day. Video with Morton as the instructor, along with the book really made this topic a lot more interesting than just reading text. On actual exam, some questions were very detailed so best to memorize as much as possible about main coverages, especially about earth quake, flood, workman's comp and various commercial liability coverages. On actual State exam, you can at least narrow down choices by eliminating incorrect choices and use educated guess. There are always 4 choices on exam. On AP quizzes, many have only 2 so be prepared to read each carefully. I highly recommend this course! It's like going to a live class in your pajamas, but from the comfort of home at your convenience and half the cost or less! Have several highlighters on hand!

Overall good course, got the job done. A few things I would like to mention regarding my experience... First off, the professor did a great job using real life examples you would encounter in the insurance business. Another thing that I wanted to mention, that was a concern of mine going in... How long is this gonna take? This is really up to you, I think you could do it in a week if you devoted a lot of time to it. It's around 40 hours of time you spend studying, taking quizzes. I scheduled my exam to put myself on a one and a half week deadline. I ended up not watching lectures about half way through the course and just studying myself which seemed faster. I took the final exam until i could consistently score high 90s. Beware, there is gonna be information on the exam that will not be covered in the course. However, if you make the most out of the course you should be in good shape. I Passed the exam with a 81 and I did the majority of the course in four days. AP RESPONSE: Congrats on passing your exam! It's very important to complete the course entirely, following our study guide, before taking your state exam. There is a lot of content that we cover in the video lecture. For future students please read "How to be a Great AP Student" if you have any questions. Link

America's Professor, and Jack Morton comes through again! Purchased the pre-licensing course for the South Carolina Life, Accident, and Health Producer's exam. Ultra tight time frame to pass the exam, and had to cram - again. Studied the material and video content for three days, and took the exam. Failed by 5 points. No shocker, as I didn't complete the program. Hit the books again and two days later passed. The system works. The return customer discount was MUCH appreciated. Well done Team Morton!

I took the South Carolina Property, Casualty, Surety, and Marine Pre-Licensing course. Jack Morton's teaching style in the video lessons fits my learning style, so it was a great fit. I set a tight timeline for myself by setting a "trap" to take the exam about five days after purchasing the course. I watched all of the videos, studied the material, and passed all of the quizzes until above 90% for 19 or 20 of the 24 chapters. Ran out of time, and took the exam with just reading the text book for the remaining chapters. BIG/HUGE mistake, I failed the exam the first time by two questions, with a score of 68.6. Heart breaker, BUT my own fault. Hit the videos, quizzes and textbook again, and took the exam three days later and passed. DO NOT SHORTCUT the program. "Test taker = Test Passer" Follow this system to the letter, and you WILL succeed the FIRST time. Kudos to America's Professor and Jack!

All the material was very helpful and easy to follow. I was able to past the test on the 1st try with a 78.6% score, however I STRONGLY suggest you make the practice test questions TRICKIER. This will better prepare people. Thanks

After dismal results trying to get potential employees licensed thru other online companies and local classes, I decided to give America's Professor a try. My potential employee passed the first time and said the training was easy, well structured and she passed the SC property and casualty exam on her first try. Now she is going for her Life and Health license thru America's Professor.

America's Professor is the BEST. I took the test 3 times and still feel confident with giving them a 5 star rating. I gave myself a time limit to finish the course but that didn't go as planned. I scheduled my testing date in advance. I knew there was no way I was ready, but I took the test anyway, out of 24 chapters, I had only completed 9, so of course I FAILED. I immediately scheduled to take the test again in 6 days. Time, again, was not on my side, but at least I only had one chapter left, clearly I've learned enough to pass this time.....I FAILED!!! I proceeded to schedule yet another test date and commit to finishing up the course, would you believe I PASSED. Moral of the story, follow the process of the course and you're sure to pass the very first time. I'm definitely looking forward to obtaining my life, health and accidental with America's Professor. Thank you, thank you thank you!!!! If America's Professor gets the course for becoming an adjuster for the state of SC, please advise. I'll be waiting!!!

I highly recommend the course materials offered through America's Professor. I recently passed my Property and Casualty exam and have ordered material for Life & Health. The real world applications and common sense approach during the educational process was ideal. The approach that the material takes in building upon the concepts and then reviewing throughout helps to reinforce the application. The quizzes and guidance on exam material was spot on. Listen Up! You won't go wrong or be disappointed.

I came back to complete my Life, Accident & Health course after completed P&C earlier this month. Again, Jack is fantastic... Thanks for all your help. Once again, I passed the State exam on the first try (84%).

I needed to absorb this material fast and get through licensing to meet a deadline to acquire a business. Jack was fantastic! Love the way he uses funny stories (cousin Eddie) to make insurance come to life. I listened to each lecture... took all the chapter tests... and passed my State Exam on the first try (81%).

How to Pass Your South Carolina Insurance Exam
Getting your insurance license can feel like an overwhelming challenge, from figuring out where to take the insurance exam, to determining whether there are any pre-licensing course requirements, to identifying your state’s requirement about fingerprinting.
America’s Professor is here to help. We’re the country’s preferred insurance exam prep provider.
We’ve helped thousands of people launch their careers as insurance sales agents, customer service reps, insurance adjusters, and more. We provide comprehensive online pre-licensing courses to help students prepare for and pass their insurance licensing exam on the first try.
Whether you’re looking to obtain a property and casualty insurance license or you want to expand your career with a life insurance license, here are the three basic steps to getting licensed:
- Prepare: Once you’ve determined which license you want to obtain, your next step is enrolling in a comprehensive pre-licensing course through America’s Professor to prepare for the exam. Whether it’s required in your state or not, our pre-licensing courses provide you with the essential knowledge you’ll need to pass the exam. AP courses include 24/7 access to a suite of online videos for 45 days, with time extensions at no charge if needed; our courses also include a hard copy textbook designed to complement the videos, as well as practice exams, sample questions, and first-class customer support.
- Pass: All 50 states require you to be licensed in order to sell insurance or even discuss insurance transactions. As with all states, South Carolina has its own specific licensing requirements—this is why there is a state-specific portion of the exam in addition to a national portion. America’s Professor will help prepare you for both.
- Apply: Once you pass the exam, you can formally apply for your insurance license, get fingerprinted with IdentoGO (visit: identogo.com/locations/south-carolina) and begin working/selling!
Exams & Scoring
South Carolina offers a range of exams, including a casualty insurance producer exam, an accident and health insurance producer exam, a public adjuster exam, and others.
You must score at least 70 on the exam to pass; as mentioned earlier, each exam consists of two parts: a state-specific section, and a national section. The two scores are not averaged together—you will need a score of 70 on both parts.
For more information about the kinds of questions they put on the South Carolina exam, which test is the toughest, testing center locations, fingerprinting, and application fees, click here.
Exam Registration, Testing Centers, Licensing Application Fees and Fingerprinting
- Exam Registration: In South Carolina, PSI Exams is the company that administers the insurance licensing exams. Call PSI at 1-800-733-9267 to register. Calling at least 3 days in advance of the date you wish to take the exam will help you ensure you get the test date of your choice.
- Testing Centers: There are several testing centers in South Carolina, as well as testing centers in neighboring states for those who live near a state border. Find a test center near you here.
- Fingerprinting: Once you’ve passed your exam you must schedule an appointment to get fingerprinted with IdentoGO. Go to identogo.com/locations/south-carolina, click on “State Fingerprinting,” then “Schedule a New Appointment.” Choose “DOI Producer Licensing/Renewal” from the drop-down menu, and then choose a fingerprinting center nearest you using your zip code or selecting your region of the state. You can also schedule an appointment by calling (866) 254-2366.
- Licensing Application Fees: The South Carolina Department of Insurance charges a $25 license fee for most license types, and licenses must be renewed annually.
