Term, Whole, Universal. By Midnight, They're One Word.

You've read the term life section three times. You close your notes...

...and you can't say what level, decreasing, renewable and convertible each mean. It was all just lines of text.

One timeline for four stops; New York's life grace period is 31 days, or 61 for flexible-premium policies.

Here, term life is one page: two shapes for the benefit, level and decreasing, and two rights, renewable and convertible, that need no new evidence of insurability.

And on the pages next to it, every policy gets its own: whole life and cash value, universal life, variable life, and joint and group life.

First you understand why it works that way. Then you remember the differences on your own.

SEE THE DIFFERENCE

Stop memorizing rules you can't picture:

THIS
  • Pages and pages of tightly packed text
  • Look-alike terms without a single drawing
  • On the exam, you don't know where to start
For purposes of insurance, risk is defined as the uncertainty or chance of a financial loss occurring, whereas a peril is understood to be the immediate cause of such loss, including events such as death, illness or accident. A hazard, by contrast, constitutes any condition or circumstance that increases the probability or severity of loss and may be classified as physical, moral or morale in nature. Candidates should take care to distinguish among these related terms, as each carries a specific meaning.
FOR THIS
  • Risk, peril and hazard on one page: the chance, the cause, what makes loss likelier
  • One topic per page, with the rules in boxes
  • You remember it because you've seen it
Term, whole, universal and variable compared on premium, death benefit, cash value and investment risk.

What If Every Topic Fit on a Single Page?

Picture this:

Instead of rereading half a page on the grace period and reinstatement without being able to picture them...

...you open the page and find both on one timeline, left to right, with a blank for your state's number.

Under 26 USC 7702A, premiums above the 7-payment limit in the first 7 years make the contract a MEC.

And the four life policies, annuity payouts, COBRA, the Medicare parts and Medigap turn into drawings and tables you can read at a glance.

You stop memorizing and start understanding.

That's exactly what The Life & Health Exam Sketchbook does. It's not “just another manual.” It's 9 parts and 69 drawn topics, and at the end a State Sheet to fill in and an exam day checklist.

Because what your brain sees organized, it remembers.

Here Is What You Get with The Life & Health Exam Sketchbook:

Ipp. 6-10

The Exam and How It Works

Know how your exam works before you take it: how the producer exam is set up, where to check your state's format, passing score and retakes, lines of authority, nonresident licenses, and how to read NOT and EXCEPT questions.

IIpp. 11-20

Insurance Basics

The vocabulary everything else rests on: risk, peril and hazard, the four ways to handle risk, types of insurers, agent authority, contracts, who regulates, and twisting and rebating.

IIIpp. 21-26

Life Policies

Stop mixing up the policies: term, whole, universal and variable life, four policies side by side, and joint, survivorship and group life.

IVpp. 27-34

Application, Underwriting and Delivery

Follow a policy from application to delivery: insurable interest, the application, field underwriting, FCRA, conditional receipt, delivery and free look, replacement and illustrations.

Vpp. 35-43

Provisions, Options and Riders

See the clauses and deadlines clearly: incontestability, grace period and reinstatement, beneficiaries, nonforfeiture, dividend and settlement options, and the main riders.

VIpp. 44-52

Annuities, Taxes and Retirement

Make the technical part make sense: annuity phases, types and payouts, best interest, life insurance taxes, the 7-pay test and the MEC, the 10% tax and ERISA.

VIIpp. 53-64

Health Insurance

Tell health plans apart at a glance: cost sharing, HMO, PPO and POS, the ACA metal tiers, essential health benefits, disability income, COBRA, HIPAA, HSAs, dental and long-term care.

VIIIpp. 65-70

Seniors and Social Insurance

Keep the letters and programs straight: the Medicare parts and enrollment, Medigap, Medicaid, Social Security and workers' comp.

IXpp. 71-74

Final Review and Exam Day

Your last review, ready to print: look-alike terms side by side, the most frequent mix-ups, your State Sheet to fill in and an exam day checklist.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get the material?

The Life & Health Exam Sketchbook comes as a high-resolution PDF by email, sent to the address you enter at checkout. The two free bonus books, 300 Exam Terms on Cards and Policy Provisions Timelines, also come as PDFs by email.

Is it a monthly or a one-time payment?

A one-time payment. No installments and no subscription. The extras offered when you pay are optional: you only pay for them if you add them.

Who is it for?

For people who finished pre-licensing and are preparing for the state life and health producer exam, including those studying around a full-time job, and for people retaking it. It starts from insurance basics, so you don't need experience in the business. Check the table of contents above to see the topics.

Does it cover my state?

It covers the general content of the exam. The state law portion of your exam is not covered state by state. Wherever a rule changes between states, a CHECK YOUR STATE box tells you which number to look up and where to find it: your state insurance department and your candidate handbook.

What sources is it based on?

The NAIC State Licensing Handbook and NAIC model rules; state insurance department and exam vendor candidate handbooks; dol.gov for COBRA, ERISA and HIPAA; healthcare.gov; medicare.gov; 26 USC and 15 USC; and 45 CFR 160.103.

Is this official material?

No. It's an independent product, not affiliated with or endorsed by the NAIC, Pearson VUE, Prometric, PSI or any state insurance department.

Does it replace my pre-licensing course?

No. It doesn't replace your course or count toward any required education. It puts what you've studied into drawings so you can review it. It's a study aid, and it can't promise you'll pass.

Are the practice questions the ones on the exam?

No. The book and the two free bonus books aren't question banks. Any practice questions you add to your order are written for this material and are not official exam questions.

Can I print it?

Yes. It's a PDF, so you can print the whole book or just the pages you need. The term cards are printable too.

What if I don't like it?

30-day guarantee: tell us what didn't work and we'll refund 100%.

How do I contact you?

Write to hello@visualguidelab.com. That inbox answers questions about your order, your PDF and the 30-day guarantee.

One Last Thing Before You Decide...

You don't have to memorize rules you can't picture.

And you definitely don't have to walk into the exam not knowing where to start.
