Good Morning!
Just a quick note to say “Thank You!” for an enjoyable and educational experience. I passed my VA P&C Exam this morning and start my new job tomorrow.
If I need a Certificate of Completion from America’s Professor please email that to me. [No certificate required 😉 ]
On a side note, I hope Cousin Eddie is doing okay… he sounds like trouble!
Thank you again!

I passed Aug 5, 2019 🙂🙂💪🏼 First try. Couldn’t have done it without you!!!! Top notch teaching, examples that are understandable, and all around awesome course. I listened to the last 8 chapters on 2x (great feature!!!). Would recommend to EVERYONE trying to get an insurance license! If you don’t pass, it’s your own fault. Jack laws down the law (pun intended!) 🙂

Passed the first time taking exam. Great content and memorization tricks. More than one time I heard Jack talking about Jack and Nancy in my head while taking the exam. Goofy, and it worked.

I studied with another online prep school and didn’t feel it had me ready for the state exam. I read reviews and decided to give this course a try and I’m glad I did. I hooked my laptop up to my big screen TV in my basement so I could study in peace. I watched all the videos, reviewed all the end of chapter quizzes by doing a few chapters per night. I took the State Exam this morning and passed! Jack, since I still have 32 days left on my online course, I was wondering if I should have purchased an insurance policy so I could get money back Pro Rata! (just Kidding) but tell Cousin Eddie to stay off my property. All Jokes aside, this course made me pass the State Exam on the first attempt. Jack really puts it all together in ways you can easily remember. 💪🏼👍🏻

Great Course! Can be a bit lengthy at times, but totally worth it. Passed on my first try. The section reviews and chapter quizzes are more than helpful… Study, listen to the professor, and you’ll pass with no problems.

A friend referred me to AP after he took and passed the insurance exam. I had originally planned on taking the test cold… so glad that I didn’t! The course is very easy to follow and keep up with. The lecture videos are to the point and arranged in easy to digest bites– perfect for me. I was able to review the info at my pace and passed my exam this last Friday… No way I would’ve done it without this course!!

Very good online course. Jack makes it as interesting as the subject can be. It’s a lot of information, especially the Virginia State Law portion. That worried me because in Virginia, you must have 70% in the general portion (100 questions) and 70% in the state law portion (50 questions). Well, it must have gotten through because I just passed on the first try! My suggestion is exactly what Jack said. Go through the course, take the quizzes and don’t wait too long to take the exam. It’s just too much information and if you wait too long you start to forget! I would definitely recommend!

Jack and America Professor have been excellent through this whole process. I first started with the P&C course and realized that I should be focused on the Life and Annuity course. So I called and got a refund with no issued and they replace the course with the Life and Annuity. Jack was a great teacher! I did all the end of the chapter quiz’s and reviews and made sure I had a good understanding. Then I took the test today and passed! Thanks again for everything!

How to Pass Your Virginia Insurance Exam
Knowledge is the key to passing your insurance exam, and you’re in good hands with America’s Professor. We have decades of experience teaching students just like you. Our comprehensive courses are designed to be engaging, interesting, and informative to help you retain the information. Whether you want to sell life and annuities insurance or your goal is to become a licensed property & casualty insurance agent, America’s Professor can help.
There are no shortcuts to learning the information—no CliffsNotes or quick-study guides. Knowing the information inside and out and reviewing the materials up until the day of your insurance exam is the best way to ensure you pass with flying colors.
Here are the 3 main steps to becoming a licensed insurance agent:
- Prepare: Enrolling in a quality pre-licensing course is your first step once you’ve decided which license you want to obtain. America’s Professor offers comprehensive courses that provide you with everything you’ll need to know to pass your exam.
- Pass: The next step is passing your state licensing exam. Each state has its own licensing requirements, and you must obtain a resident producer license in the state of Virginia in order to sell policies or even discuss insurance transactions.
- Apply: Once you pass your insurance exam with a score of 70 or better you can formally apply for your insurance license and begin working!
Exams & Scoring
Virginia offers several different exams, including: life, annuities & health, property & casualty, personal lines, title insurance, and public adjusters.
You will need a score of 70 to pass, but note that each exam consists of two parts: a general knowledge section, and a state-specific section. You will need a score of 70 or greater on each section—the two scores are not averaged. For more information about the number of questions on the exams and locations where you can take the test, click here.
Exam Registration, Testing Centers, Licensing Application Fees and Fingerprinting
- Registration: You must register for the exam by calling Pearson VUE (the testing company) at 1-888-204-6272; it’s a good idea to call at least 3 days in advance of the date you plan to take the exam to ensure you secure a spot.
- Testing Centers: There are several test centers throughout the state of Virginia and neighboring states where you can take your exam. Find a test center near you on this page.
- Licensing Fees: The licensing exam fee is $51; you may take up to two exams for that fee. If you need to retake any portion of the exam, the fee is the same (an additional $51). Once you’ve passed your exam you must apply for your license. All license types have a non-refundable application fee of $15, except for the public adjuster license, which has a fee of $250. You can submit your application request either through NIPR (National Insurance Producer Registry) or Vertafore (formerly Sircon).
- Fingerprinting: There is no fingerprinting requirement, however, the licensing application will ask several background check questions. Should you answer “yes” to any of those questions, a more in-depth process will be required.
