Exam details

Much like all other AWS certifications, the format consists of multiple choice questions. You will have 170 minutes to answer 65 questions, which is just over 2.5 minutes per question. You should have plenty of time, provided you have studied well and are confident in the domain areas I just discussed. 

Some questions can be scenario-based and do take a little longer to process and answer, but don't panic; focus on what's being asked and eliminate the obviously wrong answers. It is likely there are two that you can rule out. Take your time and re-read the question before deciding on your final answer.

The passing score for this certification is 750 out of 1000 (75%). The exam itself is USD 300 and it must be taken at an AWS authorized testing center, which can all be booked online through the AWS website, at: https://aws.amazon.com/certification/.
