Course Overview
The LP3 (Life and Pensions Principles and Practices) exam forms the final part of the Certificate in Financial Services. It is a level 3 paper, worth 10 credits toward the qualification.
The exam itself is a 90-minute computer-based multiple-choice exam. There are 50 multiple-choice questions. It can be taken at test centres throughout the country. As the exam is computer-based, you can sit it on a date of your choosing throughout the year providing more flexibility to accommodate your studies.
The nominal pass mark is 70% and as this is a computer-based test rather than a written test it is unlikely that there will be much deviation from this unless a question is subsequently found to be invalid. So, in terms of the mark needed to pass, you are looking at a minimum of 35/50.
