What Is a Passing Score on the PSI

PSI Services LLC is a national testing provider that administers licensing exams for many professions including real estate, nursing, cosmetology, insurance, and more but PSI itself does not set passing scores. Instead, the passing score is determined by the state licensing board or regulatory agency that owns the exam.

For example:

  • Real estate exams delivered by PSI typically require a passing score of 70 to 75 percent, depending on the state. In California, you must score at least 70 percent (105 out of 150 questions). In Florida, the threshold is 75 percent.
  • Nursing assistant (CNA) exams often require a 70 to 80 percent score on both the written and skills portions.
  • Insurance licensing exams generally require 70 to 75 percent, varying by line of authority and state.

Because PSI delivers exams for dozens of professions and hundreds of jurisdictions, there is no single “PSI passing score.” Your required score depends entirely on your specific license and state.

After completing a PSI-administered exam, results are usually provided immediately at the testing center. Most states report results as pass or fail, not as numerical scores, though some provide section-level feedback.

To know your exact passing score, consult the official candidate handbook or website of your state licensing authority not PSI. Preparation with role- and state-specific materials significantly increases the likelihood of meeting or exceeding the required standard.
