The Department proctors an in-person examination at the Tawes State Office Building building in Annapolis ten times per year, generally on the second Wednesday of each month (except for June and August). The Department will begin registration approximately 15 minutes prior to the scheduled exam time. You will need to sign in at the front desk in the lobby. A valid driver's license or other photo ID is required.
Exams begin at 9:00 am. No one will be admitted after the session has started.
The exam has ten weighted sections or domains. The questions are in multiple choice formats. A passing score of 70% is required for each individual domain, as well as for the overall test. There are 140 questions, 14 in each domain. No reference information may be used during the examination session.
Upon completion of the exam, examinees will be provided with a report that advises whether they passed or failed any domain taken as well as whether they passed or failed the overall exam.
