After you complete your exam, the computer will immediately evaluate it and
your score will be printed out. To pass, you need a minimum score of 675 points out
of a possible 900. Hopefully, you will pass your exam on the first try. However, if you
don??™t, your score printout will list the objectives where you missed questions. You
can use this information to review and prepare yourself to retake the exam. We??™ll
discuss this in more detail later in this Introduction.
To make the exam globally available, CompTIA administers the Linux+ exam
through two testing partners:
?– Thompson Prometric www.prometric.com/default.htm
?– Pearson VUE www.vue.com/
To sign up for your Linux+ exam, choose one of these testing partners and visit
their Web site. There you will find a link that will help you locate a testing center
near you. Most community and technical colleges are authorized testing centers.

Just specify the exam you want to take and your locale information. You will then be
provided with a list of testing centers near you, as shown in Figure I-2.
You can then use the Prometric or the VUE Web site to schedule your exam and
pay your fees.
