Counts and codes verified September 29, 2026 against the content outlines and the candidate handbook (both linked below). The Spanish forms are the same exams, with an English/Spanish toggle available during the exam. Fees are the handbook’s; Pearson VUE’s booking page shows no amounts, so confirm the fee when you book.

Scoring

One scaled score for the whole exam, from 0 to 100, equated across forms; 70 passes. It is not a percent, not a raw count, and not scored per section. There is no penalty for a wrong answer.

Verified September 29, 2026 against the candidate handbook.

Retakes, validity, licensing

After a fail, a new attempt can be booked the next day; there is no limit on attempts, and each one pays the fee again.

The license application must be completed within 12 months of passing, or the exam is taken again. It is filed electronically through Sircon or NIPR; the Texas Department of Insurance’s fee is $50 per license type, non-refundable.
