How to pass on your first try
- Know the standard policies section by section. Homeowners, personal auto and commercial coverages are tested as what each part of the policy covers, excludes and requires after a loss.
- Do not skip the state insurance code. Licensing, producer duties, ethics and cancellation rules are specific to Tennessee and scored like the rest of the exam.
- Learn notice periods and limits as numbers. Cancellation and nonrenewal notice periods and minimum limits come up as exact figures.
- Take full timed mock exams before test day, so the length and pace of the real exam hold no surprises.
