Which is the hardest Texas insurance test?
Every insurance license exam has its own unique challenges. In our experience, many students claim the Texas Health and Accident part of the test is the most challenging of the Life, Accident and Health part of the test. Health and Accident insurance policies usually are more complex and harder to understand as compared to their life insurance counterparts.
When asked which part of the test was the easiest between the casualty and property portion, many students said the property portion. These two must, however, be taken as one exam. The concepts in property insurance like flooding, fire, earthquakes, and others are easy to comprehend. Casualty insurance, however, primarily deals with safeguard against lawsuits (liability insurance). It’s a conceptual topic that is tougher for many students (especially the ones who have not been sued before) to understand.
Another option for the Texas insurance license exam that has its own difficulties is the state section. State topics concern detailed and complex state regulations.
The Texas insurance test basically is filled with challenges of all manners. We work to ensure that the material is easy to comprehend and memorize. We recommend that you prepare adequately by being disciplined and focused during your preparation.
Is the time given for the Texas insurance test enough for me to complete it?
Yes. We rarely have any cases involving students who take one of our insurance classes who say they didn’t complete the exam because there was not enough time. In fact, many students are done before half of the time allowed.
If you feel that you may require extra time as English isn’t your mother tongue, you can fill out the Pearson VUE’s ESL (English as the Second Language) Request Form. This form will ensure that you’re given extra time for your exam. But you’re required to submit it to Pearson VUE who should approve it before you are scheduled for your test or exam. You are also required to submit a letter from any instructor, such as an employer or your professor who can verify your claims of English not being your mother tongue. The letter should contain an official letterhead.
Will I take the Texas insurance test through the paper & pencil process?
This exam has been computerized and you can no longer take it in the “paper and pen” method. All students who have registered for our insurance classes and who have taken the exam appreciate the proctors and say that this, combined with a quiet room and a well-functioning computer, greatly helps in doing a practice test before taking the real one. After the exam, you won’t get a chance to review specific questions as well as their answers; neither will you get a copy of the test. The exam scoring is done immediately after which you are given your results.
Where can I take the Texas insurance test?
Locations and exam schedules may vary. For up-to-date information, please call 1-888-754-7667. For regular updates, ensure that you check the Texas Insurance Licensing Candidate Handbook by Pearson VUE here.

In the Texas Casualty and Property Adjuster test, there are 150 questions. All of them are scorable questions on general/national specific content on Texas State.
Note: The general rule for Adjusters in Texas is that one can either go to an approved Adjuster school and take (pass) the exam there- which we greatly recommend if you want real-world experience. Or you can simply do self-preparation and take the Pearson VUE exam.
The Texas Personal Lines test has 116 questions. 86 questions are on general/national content (75 scorable +11 pre-test) and the remaining 30 questions are on Texas-specific content (25 scorable + 5 pre-test).
Important: The pre-test questions don’t contribute to your final scores. When taking your exam, you won’t be notified of the pre-test questions. However, you can tell these questions if they were not covered in the Test Content Outline. Knowing that there will be pre-test questions in your exam is very important so that you don’t lose confidence when you see unfamiliar questions in the exam. If you’re clueless on how to answer the question, give it your best bet and then maintain your calm.
What is the score required for a pass in the Texas insurance test?
To pass each of the tests, you must have a combined score of 70 and above. Remember that there are two parts in the exam, “the states rules” section and the general/basic insurance section but these are all mixed.
