Hi,
I understand that a score is provided at the conclusion of a candidate’s PMP testing session. Are these the final score though? Does this score mention the final results of Pass/Fail status or would it be too soon to celebrate ;)
Or, do we need to wait for a formal notification from PMI for the final results?

Navjot -

you find out right away (within a minute or so) once the exam is done whether you've passed or not. You won't know the actual score but you will be able to access a detailed exam analysis report in your myPMI dashboard which will breakdown your performance (below, on or above target) across the domains and tasks.

For in-person testing, the test center may provide a hardcopy proof that you've passed.

I agree with Kiron - You will immediately see it on your screen and this is final, no preliminary results so you can hopefully celebrate immediately.

On Friday I got my PMP certification, I can tell you that you immediately get your result. In my case, it took the PMI a few hours to make the result official. It is a great satisfaction to know that all the effort has been worth it.

As Kiron mentioned, you will receive the final result at the end of the exam.

I did a test in Pearson Vue, and received that I haven't met the minimum requirements. Still that is preliminary, is there a possibility to change until the final result?

Bojana, from what I know, if your preliminary results indicated that you didn’t meet the minimum requirements then this is unlikely to change when you receive the final results as the verifications done before issuing the final results are mainly to ensure there was no cheating in the exam, and that all security aspects were applied properly. I might be wrong, but thats my understanding!

Rami Kaibni do you know if the same would hold true no matter what? I took my exam today at a testing center and my print out said that I had met the requirements and Congratulations on Passing however this was just a preliminary result and I would be getting the official notification within 48 hours. I am prepared either way but want to have a little bit of confidence going into the weekend.
