Note: To maintain the quality and fairness of certification exams, the exams are offered in multiple sets with different question banks. Each question is assigned a difficulty rating, which helps determine the passing score, also known as the “cut score.” Since some exam sets may be slightly more difficult than others, the cut score is determined separately for each set to ensure fair evaluation standards. Therefore, the passing score can range from 60% to 85%, depending on the exam version taken.
