Format

You will take the exam in a single, 4½-hour proctored session. The exam contains 200 multiple-choice questions. Each question contains four options or choices, only one of which is the correct or best answer. You will be asked to select the correct or best answer from these options.

The time remaining in the test session will be posted at 30-minute intervals in the front of the room. There will also be an audible 15-minute warning prior to the end of the test session. Candidates may NOT leave the room once the 15-minute warning has been given. If you finish the exam before time is called, go back and check your work. Candidates will be allowed to leave the testing room early if they wish. No one, however, will be permitted to leave during the last 15 minutes of the testing session after the audible warning has been called.

All calculators, pencils, exam materials, and water shall be provided by ICCIFP. Any items brought into the room must be stored either under your table or at the side or rear of the room. The use of books, papers, devices with memory capabilities, wireless devices capable of transmitting text, and cellular telephones is strictly prohibited. All electronic devices shall be turned off and stowed for the duration of the examination. There are no scheduled rest breaks during the testing session; however, you may leave at your discretion to use the restroom. Restrooms will be checked for the presence of exam assistance materials and communication devices.
