 Note, all of the test questions are developed and ratified by content experts and are referenced to current project management text resources.

The test is given in English only, but there are available exam aids to use in translating the exam questions into ten different languages. During the scheduling process you may request these exam aids, and find more information on the exam aids on the PMI website. There is also a 15 minute computer tutorial at the beginning of the examination, test-takers are given four hours to complete the examination.
A printed copy of the exam results can be obtained after taking the computer-based PMP exam. You can also find the result online within five to seven days of completing the exam on the PMI web-based certification system. Every score report is diagnostic in nature; including a percentage breakdown for each of the six domains tested on the exam, as well as a pass/fail designation. The Modified Angoff Technique is used to determine a passing score. It uses actual data and collective judgments from PMP credentialed individuals around the world.
