Hey Team,
I’ve been studying for this test/cert and wondered what you might answer for this question.
What would be the pass percentage for the entire exam and how much percentage of marks does each topic hold?
Thanks!
Dhanush
Unfortunately they do not list a percentage that you need to pass. This is from the Policy Handbook:
Exam passing thresholds are set independently using statistical analysis and input from SailPoint subject matter experts and independent psychometricians. SailPoint reviews, updates, and adjusts exam questions on an ongoing basis to ensure continuing item accuracy as our products evolve. With this methodology, SailPoint discloses exam results as Pass or Fail only and does not publish exam scores or the thresholds for passing exams.
Hi @DhanushP -
SailPoint exams are pass/fail only, the exams do not provide the percentage required to pass or the number of questions, and the number of questions can vary per test taker. Check out the Policy Handbook for more information.

Exams may contain unscored questions and scored questions. This is standard testing practice. You will not know which questions are unscored. If your exam contains unscored questions, the total time allowed for the exam will take the added questions into account. Your exam results will reflect your performance on the scored questions only.
A pass/fail exam result will be emailed to you 72 business hours after exam completion and displayed in your Identity University Exam Enrollment. If you passed the exam, a Certification Badge will be automatically created from your Exam Enrollment and added to your user profile in Identity University.
Regarding Exam pattern and references please refer the specific exam study guide -

Hope this clarifies your query.
Hi Dhanush, I took exam last year, and to be hones is very hard. I did not remember but you pass with 70 or 80 / 100. But there are not linear questions (for example, you do not have to answer 8 questions right from a total 10 questions). They present some topic, for example “search examining”, and there you have N questions about this topic. Each topic does not have the same number of questions, and it appears that each topic/question does not have the same score.
I prepared following the University training path (unnatendand except for lesson on rules and transforms), but to be honest it helped a lot that I was working with projects since about a year before taking the exam.
