Thank you so much for this Pre Licensing course. I just took my exam and passed the first time. I only received an 80 but I’m still pleased!!!
As a suggestion, please consider adding flash cards to your course.
Jack, you are one funny dude and Nancy must be a wonderful woman to put up with your “stories” !
Thanks 🙏🏽
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.
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

How To Pass
Insurance licensing exams are challenging. Whether you’re preparing for the South Carolina Life & Health insurance exam or you’re thinking about getting a Property & Casualty license in SC, studying is the key to success.
Most exam prep courses focus on rote memorization. At America’s Professor, we don’t believe this approach is very useful or effective. When you have a strong grasp on the material, you’re less likely to be thrown off by small details and tricky questions.
America’s Professor is here to help. Enrolling in one of our comprehensive South Carolina (SC) pre-licensing courses will arm you with the knowledge you need to pass your exam on the first try.
Keep reading for answers to some of the most common questions our students have about the South Carolina insurance licensing exams.
What kinds of questions are on the exam?
The exam questions are multiple choice, and there are no fill-in questions. But that doesn’t mean the questions are easy!
Insurance is full of jargon and complex concepts. On your exam you’ll see terms like “indemnity,” “contract of adhesion,” and “concurrent causation.” You must know what these terms mean and how insurance policies work.
No two exams are exactly alike. You will see a different set of questions than other test takers. Students have told us that the exams tend to be broken down in the following way:
-
- Around 1/3 of the questions are terminology (definitional) questions
- Around 1/3 are number/day questions
- Around 1/3 are short story problems (practical reasoning)
Insurance information is not common knowledge. It’s not something you pick up in day-to-day life. Being prepared for your exam means dedicating the time to study for it.
When should I start studying?
If possible, spend a full week (35-40 hours) studying, like you would with an in-person class. If this isn’t possible because of work or school, set a strict study schedule and stick to it.
Keep reviewing the materials right up until the night before the exam. Review your notes frequently to keep the information fresh in your mind.
Don’t cram before the exam. Research shows this is the worst way to study. Your goal should be to actually understand and retain the information, not simply memorize answers.
What score do I need to pass the South Carolina insurance exam?
The South Carolina Department of Insurance requires a score of 70 to pass each exam. The exam consists of a mix of both national and state-specific questions.
Your exam will be scored on the spot, so you will know right away whether you passed. But you will not be told which specific questions you got right or wrong.
If you don’t pass the exam, you can sign up to retake it after the required waiting period (usually 24-72 hours).
How do I sign up for the exam?
You must create an account with PSI Exams (the company that administers the exams in South Carolina) to register for an exam. Create an account as soon as possible and go online to schedule your exam at least 3-7 days in advance. This will help ensure you get the exam date of your choice.
Can I take the exam online?
Yes! PSI Exams offers proctored exams online. This means someone monitors you through your computer’s webcam while you take the exam.
Learn more about how proctored exams work in PSI’s Candidate Information Bulletin and visit the Online Proctoring page for videos and other helpful information.
How much is the exam fee?
The exam fee is $45. You must pay a separate fee to PSI Exams for each exam attempt.
How many questions are on the South Carolina exam?
The number of questions varies for each exam but usually ranges from 100-150 questions. Here are some examples:
-
- South Carolina Life and Health Insurance License exam: 150 questions
- South Carolina Life Insurance License exam: 100 questions
- South Carolina Property, Casualty, Surety, and Marine Insurance Producer exam: 150 questions
- South Carolina Property Insurance Producer: 100 questions
Refer to the Candidate Information Bulletin for the total number of questions on each exam.
