On the day of your appointment, you must bring with you two valid forms of government-issued identification (driver’s license, passport, military I.D., etc.), one of which must contain your name and photograph. You must also provide your prelicensing certificate of completion. You will not be able to take your exam if these requirements are not met.

  At the end of your exam, you will receive a printed score report marked “pass” or “fail.”
