Q: What is the passing score for the Alaska Life Producer and Health Producer Insurance Examinations?

Not published by Alaska Division of Insurance / Pearson VUE. The handbook states only “With a passing score of 70” and says the reported scaled score is neither the number nor the percentage of questions answered correctly; it prints no score range, so the scale cannot be stated. Passing candidates see only “pass”. A failed exam must be retaken in full (both parts), and exam results are valid for one year.
