Exam Scores

The exam is scored using a scaled scoring method. For every question you answer correctly, you get one point added to your raw score. At the end of the test, your final raw score will be converted to a scaled score.

The reason your raw score is converted to a scaled score is because everyone who takes the exam is given a slightly different set of questions. Since everyone has a different arrangement of questions, and because some questions are harder than others, converting your raw score to a scaled score ensures a more even playing field.

The passing score varies from state to state.

Retaking the Exam

If you didn’t get a passing score on your first try, that’s okay! You can retake the test after submitting a new application and paying the full testing fee.
