Exam Day

Today is your opportunity to prove that you have what it takes to design, configure, manage, and troubleshoot wired and wireless networks. Just 90 minutes and up to 90 questions stand between you and your Network+ certification. Use the following information to focus on the process details for the day of your Network+ exam.

What You Need for the Exam

Write down the exam location, date, exam time, exam center phone number, and the proctor’s name.

Remember the following items on exam day:

  • You must have two forms of ID that include a photo and signature, such as a driver’s license, passport, or military identification. In addition, the test center admission process requires the capture of a digital photo and digital signature.
  • The test proctor will take you through the agreement and set up your testing station after you have signed the agreement.
  • The test proctor will give you a sheet for scratch paper or a dry erase pad. Do not take these out of the room.
  • The testing center will store any personal items while you take the exam. It is best to bring only what you will need.
  • You will be monitored during the entire exam.

What You Should Receive After Completion

When you complete the exam, you will see an immediate electronic response as to whether you passed or failed. The proctor will give you a certified score report with the following important information:

  • Your score report, including the minimum passing score and your score on the exam. The report will also include a breakout displaying your percentage for each general exam topic.
  • Identification information that you will need to track your certification. Do not lose your certified examination score report.

Summary

Your state of mind is a key factor in your success on the Network+ exam. If you know the details of the exam topics and the details of the exam process, you can begin the exam with confidence and focus. Arrive early to the exam. Bring earplugs in the off chance that a testing neighbor has a bad cough or any loud nervous habits. Do not let an extremely difficult or specific question impede your progress. Answer each question confidently and move on.
