2 - State Test & Requirements.
Most states use PSI to administer their proctored state exams. Be sure to schedule your test immediately after passing pre-licensing as they book up quickly. On the right-hand side of the webpage you'll see the following options. You must do all 3 in this order to schedule your test
1- Create an account
2- Register for an exam
3- Schedule an exam
DE & FL Residents can schedule their tests through Pearson VUE. Additional DE specific info can be found here. (DE does not require the completion of a pre-license course but it is highly recommended to ensure passing on the first attempt)
CT, MA, MD Residents can schedule their tests through Prometrics. Additional MA specific info can be found here.
Most states require fingerprinting. It is recommended you complete your fingerprints as soon as you pass pre-licensing. You DO NOT have to wait to complete your state test to do fingerprinting. You can find out how to schedule the fingerprinting at your state's Department of Insurance website.
