The PMP Certification Exam is a 4-hour exam with multiple choice questions with 4 possible answers. In these 4 hours, you have to answer 200 questions. Each question is either scenario based or knowledge based and has 4 possible answers – A, B, C or D. You can only select one answer.
Out of these 200 questions, there will be 25 questions that are considered ‘pretest questions’ that carry no marks and these questions do not affect your score. These pretest questions are placed randomly throughout the question paper. If you take out these 25 pretest questions, you are left with 175 question that carry marks/score. Out of these, you must answer 106 correctly to pass the exam. That is 61% is your effective passing score.

- Take a look at the PMI website for the latest information regarding certification and to find a testing site nearest you.
- Make sure to locate your examination center much ahead of the exam time and get to the exam center early. Plan for the possible delays such as traffic, weather etc
