Try these sample questions to review concepts for the MA Property & Casualty exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 511+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Which testing vendor administers Massachusetts Property and Casualty producer licensing exams?
A.Pearson VUE
B.PSI
C.Prometric
D.NIPR
Explanation: Pearson has administered Massachusetts insurance licensing examinations since July 22, 2026, when it replaced Prometric as the Division of Insurance vendor. NIPR handles licensing applications and transactions rather than exam delivery, and PSI does not serve Massachusetts.
2How many total questions are delivered on each Massachusetts Property Producer or Casualty Producer exam?
A.80 total (all scored)
B.90 total (80 scored + 10 pretest)
C.105 total (100 scored + 5 pretest)
D.120 total (100 scored + 20 pretest)
Explanation: Each producer line exam delivers 90 questions: 80 scored plus 10 unscored pretest items. The scored questions split into a 50-item general knowledge section and a 30-item Massachusetts-specific section, with five pretest items attached to each.
3How long does a Massachusetts resident insurance producer license run before renewal is required?
A.One year
B.Two years
C.Three years
D.Five years
Explanation: Massachusetts producer licenses run on a three-year cycle and must be renewed by the renewal date shown on the license. The continuing education requirement is measured over the same 36-month period, so both obligations come due together.
4What passing score is required on Massachusetts producer licensing exams for Property or Casualty?
A.65
B.70
C.75
D.80
Explanation: Massachusetts sets a scaled passing score of 70 for producer line exams. Scores are equated across exam forms, so the reported figure is neither the number nor the percentage of questions answered correctly. Candidates who pass are not given a number at all.
5What is the Pearson examination fee per attempt for the Massachusetts Property Producer or Casualty Producer exam?
A.$10
B.$37
C.$49
D.$89
Explanation: The Massachusetts candidate handbook lists $37 for each producer line exam. Property and Casualty are separate exams, so a candidate seeking both authorities pays the fee twice. Fees are due when the seat is reserved and are non-refundable.
6Which state entity has primary authority to regulate insurance producers and insurers in Massachusetts?
A.Massachusetts Division of Insurance (DOI)
B.Massachusetts Department of Revenue
C.Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles
D.Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General
Explanation: The Massachusetts Division of Insurance is the state's insurance regulator. It oversees producer licensing, market conduct, and insurer compliance with Massachusetts insurance law. The RMV and DOR have important roles, but they are not the primary insurance regulator.
7Which statement best describes Massachusetts exam structure for full P&C authority?
A.One combined property and casualty producer exam is given
B.Separate Property and Casualty exams each carry a score report
C.A license is issued without an exam if CE is completed first
D.Only a state-law exam is given, with no general content
Explanation: Massachusetts tests Property and Casualty in separate line exams. Candidates seeking both authorities must pass both exams and satisfy licensing requirements. Each line has a distinct outline and score report.
8On the Massachusetts Property Producer content outline effective July 22, 2026, which area carries the most scored questions?
A.Property policy provisions and contract law
B.Property types of policies
C.Massachusetts laws pertinent to property only
D.Property insurance terms and related concepts
Explanation: The general knowledge outline gives property types of policies 22 scored questions, more than any other single area. Property insurance terms and related concepts carries 15 and property policy provisions and contract law carries 13, filling out the 50 general knowledge items.
9On the Massachusetts Casualty Producer content outline, which area carries the most scored questions?
A.Casualty types of policies, bonds, and related terms
B.Casualty policy provisions
C.Massachusetts laws pertinent to all lines
D.Casualty insurance terms and related concepts
Explanation: Casualty types of policies, bonds, and related terms carries 23 scored questions, the largest single block on that exam. Casualty insurance terms and related concepts carries 15 and casualty policy provisions carries 12, completing the 50 general knowledge items.
10How many continuing education hours does Massachusetts generally require before a producer's first renewal?
A.24 hours
B.45 hours
C.60 hours
D.72 hours
Explanation: Massachusetts CE rules require 60 hours before the first renewal. After that initial cycle, producers generally move to a 45-hour requirement every 36 months. Candidates should know this first-renewal distinction for exam and compliance purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Massachusetts one combined P&C exam?

No. Massachusetts uses separate Property Producer and Casualty Producer exams. Candidates who want both authorities generally take and pass both line exams.

How many questions and how much time are on each Massachusetts exam?

Each line exam delivers 90 questions: 50 general and 30 Massachusetts scored items plus 10 unscored pretest items. The outlines do not publish a time limit; Pearson shows it at registration. Because pretest items are unmarked, treat every question as scored.

What score and fee apply in Massachusetts?

Each Massachusetts line exam uses a scaled passing score of 70 set by the Division of Insurance with Pearson; only failing candidates see a numeric score. The exam fee is $37 per producer line exam, paid to Pearson, and there is no combined Property-and-Casualty exam.

What Massachusetts auto limits are most tested after the 2025 update?

Massachusetts compulsory minimums now include liability 25/50/30, uninsured motorist 25/50, and Personal Injury Protection up to $8,000. These limits apply to policies issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2025.

What CE rules should candidates know for Massachusetts?

Massachusetts generally requires 60 CE hours before first renewal and 45 CE hours every 36 months after first renewal, including ethics training requirements. CE completion is essential for license renewal compliance.
