| Passing score | Scaled score of 70 on a 0–100 scale The same rule applies to both exams. The handbook states that the reported scaled score is neither the number nor the percentage of questions answered correctly, and that each exam is scored as a whole. Candidates who fail must wait 24 hours before making a new reservation, which cannot be made at the test center.

| Fees |
A candidate who wants both the Life and the Accident & Health licence must pass both exams. The handbook's fee table is headed "If scheduled back to back, buy one get one free". Fees are paid when reserving and are non-refundable except under the change/cancel policy. The licence fee charged by the Department is not printed in the handbook, so it is not shown.
