✅ Who Should Take This Course?

• Candidates preparing for the Texas General Lines — Life, Accident and Health agent licensing examination
• Career changers entering insurance who have no prior product knowledge and are starting from zero
• Agency recruits whose employer expects them to pass the state exam within a set number of weeks
• Candidates who have failed the exam once and need a structured second attempt rather than more flashcards
• Licensed property and casualty agents adding life, accident and health authority
• Out-of-state producers who must pass the Texas exam because they do not qualify for reciprocity

✅ Does Texas Require a Prelicensing Course?

No. Texas is one of the few states that requires no prelicensing education for an insurance agent license. Texas Insurance Code §4001.105 sets the qualifications for an individual license — be at least 18, pass the licensing examination within the past 12 months, avoid disqualifying conduct, and submit the application and fee. No course hours appear anywhere in the statute or in the Department's rules. The only prelicensing education Texas mandates is for adjusters, not agents.

That means this course is not state-approved, does not carry a course approval number, and cannot substitute for the state examination — nothing can. It also means you are free to prepare however you like. Most candidates who fail did not fail for lack of effort; they failed because they studied a general insurance textbook instead of the Texas content outline. This course is built from that outline.

What this course is: 14 hours of examination preparation for the Texas General Lines — Life, Accident and Health agent license, weighted to the published Pearson VUE content outline, with a 130-question practice final examination. What it is not: it is not continuing education, it carries no CE credit, it is not approved by the Texas Department of Insurance, and completing it does not by itself qualify anyone for a license.

✅ How the Texas Licensing Exam Works

The Texas insurance licensing examinations are administered by Pearson VUE under contract to the Texas Department of Insurance. The General Lines — Life, Accident and Health examination is delivered in a single 150-minute appointment at a physical Pearson VUE test center and contains 145 questions in two parts: a general knowledge section of 100 scored questions plus 10 unscored pretest questions, and a Texas state-specific section of 30 scored questions plus 5 unscored pretest questions. Pretest questions are mixed in with the scored ones and are not identified. You need a scaled score of 70 to pass, and you leave the test center with your official score in hand.

• 150 minutes total for the whole examination — general and state sections together, not 150 minutes for each
• 145 questions: 100 scored general + 10 pretest, and 30 scored Texas + 5 pretest
• Passing score is a scaled 70, which is not the same as answering 70 percent correctly
• $49 examination fee per attempt, paid to Pearson VUE and non-refundable
• Test center only — Texas insurance examinations are not offered as online proctored exams
• Two forms of current, unexpired signature identification are required, one government-issued with a photograph
• No waiting period and no limit on retakes — a candidate who fails may reschedule for the next day, paying the fee again
• A passing score is valid for 12 months; apply within a year or take the examination again

How this course helps: This course provides 14 hours of instruction covering every topic on the published Pearson VUE content outline for the General Lines — Life, Accident and Health examination, with instructional time allocated in proportion to each topic's question weight. The 130-question practice final examination matches the real examination's structure exactly — 100 general questions and 30 Texas questions — so you can measure readiness against the actual test rather than against a generic quiz. It does not register you for the examination, pay your $49 fee, or replace the state examination.

✅ When and Where You Take the Exam

You choose. There is no fixed testing window and no cohort schedule. Create a Pearson VUE web account using your exact legal name as it appears on your government-issued identification, then schedule online or by calling 888-754-7667 at least 24 hours ahead. Appointments can generally be booked as late as one calendar day before you want to test, subject to seat availability at your chosen center. Texas insurance examinations are delivered in physical test centers only, so plan travel to a center near you.

If you need to reschedule or cancel, call Pearson VUE at least 48 hours before your appointment. Proper notice lets you transfer or recover the fee; cancelling without it forfeits the $49. Most candidates schedule the examination before they finish studying, because a booked date is the single most reliable way to finish a self-paced course.

✅ How to Get Your Texas Insurance License

Step 1: Study — no course is required, but the exam is not easy

Texas mandates no prelicensing hours, so nothing forces you to prepare. The examination still covers 130 scored questions across the full content outline. Work through this course and take the practice examination until you are scoring comfortably above 70.

Step 2: Create your Pearson VUE account and schedule the exam

Register at Pearson VUE using your exact legal name as printed on your identification. A mismatch will cost you the appointment at the door. Pay the $49 examination fee when you book.

Step 3: Request your fingerprint service code from TDI

Texas requires a fingerprint background check. Submit the Department's initial application and fingerprint request to receive a service code by email. Do this early — it is the step candidates forget.

Step 4: Schedule your fingerprint appointment with IdentoGO

Book with IdentoGO by IDEMIA using the service code TDI emailed you, online at identogo.com or by calling 888-467-2080, at least 24 hours in advance. A fee is payable at the appointment; confirm the current amount with IdentoGO.

Step 5: Take the examination

Arrive with two forms of current, unexpired signature identification. You have 150 minutes for all 145 questions. You will receive your official score report before you leave the test center.

Step 6: Get fingerprinted and keep the receipt

Complete the IdentoGO appointment and keep the receipt showing your prints were transmitted to the Texas Department of Public Safety. The Department asks for a copy of it.

Step 7: Apply for your license through Sircon or NIPR

Apply electronically at Sircon or NIPR and pay the $50 state application fee. Apply within 12 months of passing or you must test again. Do not apply before you pass — you would have to reapply and pay the fee twice. Each license type needs its own application and its own $50.

Step 8: Get appointed before you write business

A license alone does not let you sell. Texas Insurance Code §4001.201 requires an insurer to appoint you before you engage in business as an agent. An appointment continues until the insurer or the agent terminates it, so it is not something you renew.
