Question about pre-license exam

loudee · 11-05-2007, 08:08 PM

After reading through the posts on the forum I'm taking the advice of working for an agency to learn the ropes....at least for six months or so. After that I might consider starting my own agency if I feel I'm ready. I would like to get licensed first and would appreciate any advice on where to find classes to prepare myself. I'm in PA if that matters.

Thanks !

Go to you states insurance website and look up agent/producer licensing, initial resident licensing.

What ever you do make sure your pre-licensing includes life settlements & viaticals. When I sat for my test in PA twenty of the questions covered those topics and my pre-study covered NEITHER.

I can't believe states still have pre-licensing... wow...

Must be a northern thing :-)

Good luck!!!

I signed up with 360training.com to receive the pre-license schooling and credits needed to take the state exam. Hopefully in a month I'll take the test and (fingers crossed) have my insurance license by the end of the year. Does anyone know how difficult Pennsylvania's exam will be? Just curious.
