The exam itself is very similar to most other IT exams offered these days. You will be required to go to a VUE Testing Centre, which are available in over 3500 locations around the world. The exam is taken in an isolated room, using a specially configured computer. The exam is closed-book, so you won't be able to consult any reference material or use the Internet while taking it.

The exam is composed of a total of 70 questions, which must be answered in 90 minutes. Each question can be formulated in one of three ways:

• As a multiple-choice question with only one right answer.
• As a multiple-choice question with multiple correct answers.
• As a free-form question for which the answer must be typed in.
