do you know what that is as a percentage?

Netstudent

thats probably around 60-65%

the net+ has a pretty low pass score.

I's between 69 - 70%.
The test is scored 100 - 900, which leaves 800 points. The passing score is 554, which is about 69 - 70%.

According to their changelog, no. I think the study guides discuss it for historical and educational purposes.

CertMe2260

Just took it and 720 is needed to pass...

The best source is Comptia.

This page (http://www.comptia.org/certifications/listed/Network.aspx) says that the passing score for the current exam (N10-004) is 720 just as CertMe2260 mentioned, which equates roughly to about 80 percent.

If the questions are weighted equally, than each of the 100 questions would be worth 9 points each. If you get all 100 questions correct, you'd get a score of 900 (9 points * 100 questions). To get a score of 720, you'd need to get 80 questions correct (720 / 9 = 80).

However, it's possible that the questions are weighted differently. In other words, some questions may be worth 11 points, and others worth 7 points.

All that said, you're best thinking of the exam as a difficult one and overstudying.

- CertMe2260. Hope you passed.

HTH,
