Study for Tennessee's Life and Accident & Health exams against TDCI's real blueprints.
Tennessee has no combined Life & Health exam: the Life Agent exam and the Accident and Health Agent exam are each their own fully separate, 105-minute Pearson VUE exam. LicensePath maps every category on both real blueprints, whichever line (or both) you're licensing for. Tennessee also licenses a separate Personal Lines exam, covered in its own blueprint below.
What the real Tennessee exams look like.
Both exams use a scaled passing score of 70, not a raw score or straight percent-correct, per Pearson VUE's own Tennessee candidate bulletin. Each exam splits into a 50-question "General Knowledge" section (the same national content, and the exact same category weights, as Texas's own outline) plus an 18-question Tennessee-specific section.
Both exams, mapped from TDCI & Pearson VUE's own content outline.
Every category below comes from Pearson VUE's official Tennessee Insurance Content Outline (#124301, effective October 15, 2025). Both exams' General Knowledge sections reuse the exact same national category ids and point weights as Texas's own outline, independent confirmation that this national taxonomy is shared across states and not coincidental.
Life Agent Exam
- Life: Types of Policies22.1%
- Life: Riders, Provisions, Options & Exclusions22.1%
- Life: Application, Underwriting & Delivery17.6%
- Life: Retirement & Other Insurance Concepts11.8%

- Other Health Insurance Concepts7.4%
- Field Underwriting Procedures11.8%
- Tennessee Laws Common to Life & Accident and Health20.6%
- Tennessee Rules & Statutes: Accident & Health Only5.9%
Both exams share the identical "Tennessee Laws Common to Life & Accident and Health" category, same title and same 14-point weight. LicensePath tracks it as one verified category rather than two coincidentally similar ones, exactly as it's tested on both real exams.
What the real Tennessee Personal Lines exam looks like.
Tennessee's Personal Lines exam, mapped from TDCI & Pearson VUE's own content outline.
Personal Lines — General knowledge (75 of 100 scored questions)
- Types of Property Policies10.0%
- Types of Casualty Policies13.0%

- Tennessee Laws & Departmental Rules Common to Life, Accident & Health, Property & Casualty Insurance14.0%

Percentages are each category's share of the 100 scored questions, per Pearson VUE's official Tennessee Insurance Content Outline #124301 (Personal Lines).
Built from the Tennessee Code and Pearson VUE's own materials, not guesses.
Every Tennessee question in LicensePath, across Life, Health, and Personal Lines, is sourced from Tennessee Code Annotated Title 56 and the Tennessee Compilation of Rules and Regulations, fetched directly from primary-source mirrors, then cross-checked against Pearson VUE's official Tennessee content outlines (#124301) before it's approved for release.
Curious how state exam blueprints are built, or why every practice question carries a citation? Two short guides cover both: what's actually on your state's insurance exam and why we cite every practice question.
