Exam costs:
Exams typically cost US$65-US$200 but are priced according to currency values in specific countries and regions. Beta exams are free. Contact the selected AATC for exact pricing.
Exam structure:
Question types might include:
Multiple-choice questions with either a single response, or multiple responses; some multiple-choice multiple-response questions may earn a candidate partial credit. Partial credit for IT exams means part of the one point that each exam item is worth; for Pro Apps exams it means one or more points, up to the number of points available for that item.
Hot-spot or interactive media questions that ask a candidate to click an area in an image.
Exam scoring:
There is no penalty for guessing on single answer questions. If you choose an incorrect answer, you simply do not earn credit for that item. No points are deducted for incorrect answers or answers left blank.
If a question specifies that you must choose a specific number of correct answers, you must choose the exact number of correct answers specified in the question. You will earn credit for each correct answer chosen. No points are deducted for incorrect answers.
If a question specifies that you must "Select All that Apply," you do not have to choose the exact number of correct answers specified in the question. You will earn one point for each correct answer chosen. For each incorrect answer that you choose, .25 points will be deducted. This prevents candidates from simply selecting all responses.
Score report:
The score report indicates the time that a candidate finished the exam. A candidate must wait seven 24-hour periods after completing an exam before they are eligible to retake an exam.
Some exams include questions that are worth more than one point as they ask students to select more than one option. So while a score could indicate that a student earned 52 out of 64, the exam might only include 60 questions. A student had the potential to get 64 answers correct, not 64 questions correct.
If you fail a recertification exam, the score report will include information on how you can retake the exam, if you are eligible. If you took the exam in a proctored setting, you should contact your testing center to reschedule.
Apple provides numeric scaled scores on all exams that provide the candidate with some indication of their level of performance on the exam.
Exam timing:
The time varies from one exam to another, but it will not exceed two hours under normal circumstances.
Preparatory materials
The content of all Apple end-user exams is strictly limited to the content of the corresponding Apple Pro Training Series books. Students who master the contents of the book should be able to pass the certification exam, whether they attended an instructor-led class or used the book to self-study. Trainer exams may include questions about material outside the scope of the Apple Pro Training Series books.
