How the Kentucky Life Insurance exam compares

The Kentucky Life exam is 150 questions, 190 minutes, a 70% cut score. The examination fee is $50 per exam.

Kentucky administers its own licensing exams through the Department of Insurance rather than contracting a national vendor, so scheduling and score reporting work differently from most states.

It is one of the longer Life exams in the country; the typical Life exam runs about 96 questions.

Kentucky requires 20 hours of prelicensing education before you can take the exam.

Study Tip

Study the explanation, not the answer. The real exam words questions differently than any practice bank, so understanding why an answer is correct matters far more than memorizing which letter it was.
