TL;DR
  • 150 scored questions, 150 minutes, 70% passing score, closed-book, $38 fee through PSI.
  • Provisions, Options, Exclusions, Riders, Clauses, and Rights is the largest domain at 28.0% - study it first.

Exam Snapshot: The Numbers You Must Memorize

Before diving into content, lock in the mechanics of the Oklahoma Life & Health Insurance Producer Exam. These numbers govern how you pace yourself, how you register, and how you interpret your results. This cheat sheet is meant as a companion to a full OKLH Study Guide 2026: How to Pass on Your First Attempt, not a replacement for it - treat this page as the one-sheet you review the night before your test.

Core Facts: The exam is administered by PSI on behalf of the Oklahoma Insurance Department. It contains 150 scored questions delivered in 150 minutes, with a 70% score required to pass. PSI may insert 5-10 unscored experimental questions that look identical to scored items, so there's no way to identify or skip them strategically.

  • Fee: $38 per attempt.
  • Format: Computer-based, at a physical test center or via remote proctoring.
  • Materials allowed: None. Closed book, no calculator, no reference sheets.
  • Remote-specific rule: No scratch paper and no breaks during a remote session.
  • Eligibility: Minimum age 18, plus Oklahoma citizenship or lawful-presence documentation.

Domain Weight Breakdown (All 9 Areas)

Content weighting is the single most important strategic input for your study plan. Spending equal time on all nine domains is a mistake - three domains account for more than two-thirds of the exam.

DomainWeightPriority
Provisions, Options, Exclusions, Riders, Clauses, and Rights28.0%Highest
Life Products20.0%Very High
State Insurance Statutes, Rules, and Regulations19.3%Very High
Health Providers and Products10.0%High
Underwriting8.7%Moderate
Licensing6.0%Moderate
Medicare3.3%Low
Long-Term Care (LTC) Policies3.3%Low
Considerations in Replacing Insurance1.3%Low

For a domain-by-domain walkthrough with topic lists, see OKLH Exam Domains 2026: Complete Guide to All 9 Content Areas. This cheat sheet only hits the highlights you need for a rapid final review.

Provisions, Options, Exclusions, Riders, Clauses, and Rights

At 28.0% of the exam, this domain alone can make or break your score. It covers the contractual mechanics that sit underneath every life and health policy - the fine print that determines what an insurer must pay, when it can refuse, and what rights a policyholder retains.

Provisions, Options, Exclusions, Riders, Clauses, and Rights

Expect scenario-based questions that test whether you understand how a specific provision changes the outcome of a claim.

  • Standard policy provisions: incontestability, grace period, reinstatement, entire contract clause
  • Nonforfeiture options and how cash value is preserved or forfeited
  • Riders: waiver of premium, accidental death, guaranteed insurability, accelerated benefits
  • Exclusions common to life and health contracts, including how they differ from limitations
  • Settlement options and beneficiary designation rights

Key Takeaway

Don't just memorize provision names - practice matching each provision to the specific claim scenario it resolves. That matching skill is what the scored questions actually test.

Life Products, Statutes, and Health Providers

Three more domains - Life Products, State Insurance Statutes, Rules, and Regulations, and Health Providers and Products - together represent roughly half the exam when combined with the top domain above.

Life Products (20.0%)

Know the structural differences between product types and how each behaves over time.

  • Term, whole, universal, and variable life mechanics
  • Premium structures and how cash value accumulates or is credited
  • Annuity basics as they intersect with life product sales

State Insurance Statutes, Rules, and Regulations (19.3%)

This domain tests Oklahoma-specific rules governing producer conduct, not generic insurance theory.

  • Producer licensing authority of the Oklahoma Insurance Department
  • Unfair trade practices and prohibited conduct
  • Disclosure requirements and record-keeping obligations

Health Providers and Products (10.0%)

Focuses on how health coverage is delivered and structured.

  • HMO, PPO, and indemnity plan distinctions
  • Group versus individual health contract features
  • Coordination of benefits basics

The Small-Percentage Domains You Can't Skip

Underwriting (8.7%), Licensing (6.0%), Medicare (3.3%), Long-Term Care Policies (3.3%), and Considerations in Replacing Insurance (1.3%) look minor individually, but together they're worth roughly 22% of your score - more than enough to swing a borderline result.

  • Underwriting: risk classification, application review, and reasons for rating or declining coverage.
  • Licensing: resident producer requirements and renewal mechanics, including the biennial 24 continuing-education hours with 3 ethics hours and 2 legislative-update hours.
  • Medicare: Parts A, B, C, D distinctions and enrollment basics.
  • Long-Term Care Policies: benefit triggers and typical policy features.
  • Considerations in Replacing Insurance: replacement disclosure obligations and consumer protection rules.
Common Mistake: Candidates often skip the low-weight domains entirely to focus on the big three. That leaves easy points unclaimed - a few missed questions here can be the difference between passing at 70% and falling just short.

Registration and Test-Day Mechanics

Once your content review is solid, the logistics matter just as much. The exam is scheduled and delivered through PSI on behalf of the Oklahoma Insurance Department, with a $38 fee per attempt.

  1. Confirm you meet eligibility: age 18+ and Oklahoma citizenship or lawful-presence status.
  2. Choose a test center or remote-proctored session - remember, remote sessions offer no scratch paper and no breaks.
  3. Arrive (or log in) with acceptable ID and no prohibited materials; the exam is fully closed book.
  4. Budget your 150 minutes across 150 scored questions, keeping in mind unscored experimental items may be mixed in.
  5. Review your Oklahoma Insurance Department producer license renewal cycle in advance - it's biennial with continuing education requirements.

And if you're weighing whether the time and $38 fee are worth it relative to career payoff, read Is the OKLH Certification Worth It? Complete ROI Analysis 2026.

Key Takeaway

Because remote sessions don't allow breaks, practice sitting through full-length timed drills without stopping - that stamina is part of what the format is testing.

Final-Week Review Schedule

In the last week before your exam date, structure your review around domain weight rather than the order topics appear in a textbook. This is the one place in this cheat sheet where general study method meets OKLH-specific content - use it to convert leftover study time into targeted points.

Days 1-2

Provisions, Options, Exclusions, Riders, Clauses, and Rights

  • Drill scenario questions matching provisions to claim outcomes
  • Rebuild a one-page list of every rider and its trigger
Days 3-4

Life Products + State Statutes

  • Compare term, whole, universal, and variable products side by side
  • Review Oklahoma Insurance Department conduct and disclosure rules
Day 5

Health Providers, Underwriting, Licensing

  • Run timed mixed-domain question sets
  • Confirm renewal and CE requirements are memorized, not just recognized
Days 6-7

Medicare, LTC, Replacement + Full Simulation

  • Quick-review the smallest domains so no easy points are left unclaimed
  • Take at least one full 150-question, 150-minute timed simulation

Practicing under realistic timed conditions matters more than re-reading notes at this stage. You can run full-length simulated exams at the OKLH practice test platform to get comfortable with the pacing before test day.
