What is the Property and Casualty Exam?
The Property and Casualty exam is used to assess your knowledge about insurance policies related to damage or injury to people’s belongings (casualty) or property. Passing this exam is a mandatory step to become a licensed agent.
Once you become an agent, you’ll sell various types of insurance that covers things like homes, cars, and other valuables.

Exam Scores
The scoring methods for each state will vary, though most states use a scaled scoring system. This means that for every question you answer correctly, you get one point added to your raw score. At the end of the test, your final raw score will be converted to a scaled score.
The reason your raw score is converted to a scaled score is because everyone that takes the test is given a slightly different set of questions. Since everyone has a different arrangement of questions, and because some questions are harder than others, converting your raw score to a scaled score ensures a more even playing field.
The passing score requirements will also vary from state to state.
Retaking the Exam
If you didn’t get a passing score on your first try, that’s okay! Each state has its own specific rules, but most will allow you to retake the test as many times as you need.
