Are these real CDI P&C exam questions?+
No. All questions are original prose authored from the California Insurance Code, Title 10 CCR, Civil Code, Labor Code, Vehicle Code, and standard ISO insurance form concepts. We never copy from real exams or paid prep providers.
What's the passing score for the California P&C Broker-Agent exam?+

What does the P&C Broker-Agent license let me sell?+
Auto insurance (personal + commercial), homeowners, dwelling, commercial property, casualty/liability (CGL), and workers' compensation insurance — to California residents and businesses.
Is the California P&C exam offered in Vietnamese or Chinese?+
Yes — AB 451 (2018) legally requires CDI to offer producer license exams in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese (Mandarin), and Korean.
Should I take the P&C license or Personal Lines license first?+
P&C is broader (commercial + personal). Personal Lines is narrower (residential + personal auto only) with fewer pre-licensing hours (32 vs 52) and a shorter exam (~100q vs ~150q). Many agents start with whichever matches the business they want to write first; many upgrade Personal Lines → P&C later.
