Description

The LP1 (Life and Pensions Customer Operations) exam forms the first part of the Certificate in Financial Services. It is a level 3 paper, worth 15 credits toward the qualification.

The exam itself is a 90-minute computer-based multiple-choice exam. There are an initial 15 questions followed by a further 35 questions based on 7 case studies (5 questions per case study). 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.
