Frequently Asked Questions
What does the MMPI-3 evaluation cost?
The Basic Evaluation is $250 and includes a brief life history, the MMPI-3 assessment, your state form (Texas PSP-13 or New Mexico determination), and a brief written report. The Comprehensive Evaluation is $450 and adds a telehealth clinical interview, mental status exam, and screenings for depression, anxiety, and substance abuse, with a detailed clinical report.
Is the evaluation really 100% remote?
Yes. The MMPI-3 is completed online through Pearson's secure Q-global platform from your home computer. The Comprehensive Evaluation's clinical interview is conducted by telehealth video. There is no office visit for either package.
How fast do I get started after paying?
Immediately after payment you receive your Life History questionnaire by email, and after a brief review by the evaluating psychologist, your secure MMPI-3 testing link is emailed to you — typically within a few hours, any day of the week.
Is my evaluation confidential?
Yes. Your results are handled as confidential psychological records by a licensed psychologist. Only the state-required documentation — a signed declaration of your psychological fitness, not your test answers — goes to your employer or licensing agency.
What if the evaluation doesn't result in a clearance?
Not every evaluation results in a favorable determination — we do not sell guaranteed passes, and no legitimate provider can. If the psychologist cannot certify fitness, you'll receive an honest explanation of the finding and, where appropriate, guidance on re-evaluation options. Your fee covers the professional evaluation itself, not a particular outcome.
Which states do you serve?
Texas (Level III Commissioned Security Officers and Level IV Personal Protection Officers, per Occupations Code § 1702.163) and New Mexico (Level 3 armed security guards). Each state page explains its exact requirement.
