The Exam Process
The PMP exam is offered by
PMI as a computer test.
During four hours of testing time, 200 multiple-choice
questions have to be answered. Each question has 4 answer
options, out of which one is right. 175 of these 200 questions
are scoring, the other die 25
questions are undergoing a test by the candidates.
Passing score for the candidates is 60.5%.
The test result is assessed immediately at the end of the
session. Candidates who do not pass on the first attempt have an
option to repeat the test.
The exams are performed at Prometric Testing Centers, which
are available in many countries. Please see the
Prometric website to locate a center nearby.
