How many questions are on the PMP exam?

The PMP exam contains 180 questions to be completed in 230 minutes (3 hours 50 minutes). Questions are a mix of multiple choice, multiple response, matching, hotspot, and limited fill-in-the-blank.

What is the PMP passing score?

PMI does not publish a specific passing score. Results are reported as Above Target, Target, or Below Target for each of the three domains: People, Process, and Business Environment.

What percentage of PMP questions are agile or hybrid?

Approximately 50% of PMP exam questions cover agile or hybrid approaches, reflecting the current Exam Content Outline (ECO) which replaced the purely predictive PMBOK focus.

How often does the PMP exam content change?

PMI typically revises the Exam Content Outline every 3–5 years. The current ECO, introduced in January 2021, is based on PMBOK 7th Edition and the Agile Practice Guide.

Does PMP certification expire?

PMP certification is valid for 3 years. Renewal requires earning 60 Professional Development Units (PDUs) within the 3-year cycle.
