Why now

The rules changed. Most prep didn't.

Act 142 of 2024 rewrote how Pennsylvanians get licensed. Three things worth knowing before you spend a dollar on study materials:

The 24-hour course requirement is gone

Since April 29, 2025, you no longer need a pre-licensing course to sit for the exam. You can register with PSI, study on your own terms, and test when you're ready.

Act 142 of 2024 (SB 1241), § 604-A(b) repealed

The exam is the whole gate

With no required coursework, the exam is the only knowledge check between you and a license — and its single biggest section (21%) is Pennsylvania statute law, not national material.

16-03 outline effective 3/1/2026, section 1.0

Retakes cost real money

Every attempt is $55, non-refundable. Prep that's aligned to the actual current outline is the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy.

Product preview

Practice that diagnoses, then teaches.

A blueprint-weighted diagnostic finds your weak sections early, and every practice question sharpens that read. Explanations teach at the distractor level — why the wrong answer felt right — because that's where exams are lost.

Question 14 of 25PA state law

Under PA's unfair trade practices rules, a producer who offers a client part of their commission as an inducement has committed:

A. Twisting
✗ B. Churning — your answer
✓ C. Rebating
D. Defamation
Why B was tempting

Churning also involves commissions — but it's replacing policies to generate them. Sharing commission with a client is rebating. We'll re-ask this in 3 days.

The receipts

Exam outlines change. We keep the receipts.

The 16-03 outline isn't the document it was a few years ago — weights moved, laws were swapped, whole topics were added. That's why studying from undated material is a gamble. Here's a sample of what changed, straight from the outlines:

This proves one thing: outlines change, and dated verification matters. Every question we ship cites the current outline and statute, and we re-verify monthly — the "last checked" stamp is on every page. Ask any study material you're considering for its date.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Do I still need a pre-licensing course in Pennsylvania?

No. Act 142 of 2024 repealed the 24-credit-hour pre-licensing requirement effective April 29, 2025. You apply to PSI, pass the exam, then apply for your license. (Continuing education still applies after you're licensed — including new ethics hours for everyone and flood hours for property & casualty licensees.)

How does the pass guarantee work?

If you take the 16-03 exam and don't pass, email us your PSI score report and we'll refund your full purchase. No completion requirements, no fine print about how many questions you answered.

Who makes this?

A Pennsylvania-based professional educator builds the diagnostics, sequencing, and explanations — and every question is reviewed for accuracy by a licensed Pennsylvania insurance producer before it ships. We're not insurance advisors, and this product doesn't give insurance advice; it prepares you for one exam, well.

Are these real exam questions?

No, and be wary of anyone who says otherwise — using actual exam content violates exam security rules. Our questions are written from the public 16-03 outline, Pennsylvania statutes and regulations, and standard industry concepts, in the exam's style and difficulty.

When does it launch?

This fall. The launch list gets first access and a launch-week discount.
