How many Test Retakes am I allowed?

[OgoSplunkk]

Hi I was just wondering if I fail the Splunk certification test how many retakes do I get before I have to pay another $130

Yes, you do need to pay $130 per exam attempt. The retake policy is on Page 8 of the Certification Handbook. You have up to 6 attempts to pass the exam, with a specific schedule as to when you are permitted to make each additional attempt. Hope this helps!

You pay PearsonVUE for a single exam attempt. So each test costs you 130$ regardless of whether it's successful or not.

Zero.  Every retake requires payment of another fee.

Last question out of the 65 questions how many can I miss? Karma given by the way.

The pass threshold depends on the exam subject and is not disclosed.  You will be told at the end of the exam if you passed or not, but will not be told how many or which questions you missed.
