The test is 90 questions taken in 240 minutes, with a minimum score to pass of 70%.
If a test question answer could differ because of conflicting information in test reference sources, a legal requirement such as a code, law or regulation overrides any other reference. If two legal requirements appear to conflict, the statespecific code, law or regulation overrides the national one. Information from sources on the test reference list override information from other sources or persons.
