How the RBT exam works

Format: 85 multiple-choice questions with 4 options each. 75 count toward your score; 10 are unscored pilot questions mixed in, and you won't know which ones they are, so treat every question as if it counts.
Time: 90 minutes, or about 64 seconds per question. Pacing matters more than speed: flag hard questions and come back.
Where: Computer-based, in person at Pearson VUE test centers
Scoring: Pass/fail against a cut score set by subject-matter experts (modified Angoff method) and reported as a scaled score. Passing candidates are told only that they passed; failing candidates get feedback by task.
