3. Practice Exams Are Very Helpful

One of the best ways to prepare for the Life and Health exam is by taking practice exams. Our Life and Health practice exams provide you with an accurate assessment of ‘exam readiness’ and will help identify your strengths and weaknesses.

 

ExamFX practice exams simulate the state exam experience – all to ensure you feel confident on exam day.

 

Along with practice exams, we also offer a Life and Health exam study guide, flash cards, and a tip sheet.

4. Frequent Study Breaks Are Good

Researchers have found the best way to study is in relativity short blocks of time. Shorter blocks of focused study will help improve comprehension and increase long-term retention of the material. Take frequent breaks: a walk, a snack, or something to take your mind off the books.

 

Studying for an exam can be stressful. Don’t fall victim to ‘burnout’ - it could put your hard work in jeopardy. ExamFX courses are self-paced, allowing candidates to study at times that work best for them.

5. Schedule Your Exam

Your exam will be administered by one of the three national testing centers, Prometric, PSI, or Pearson VUE. Visit the state prelicensing requirement page to find your state’s testing provider and become familiar with testing policies and procedures. Schedule your exam early for the best selection of times and locations.
