Been searching for the CST passing score and I keep seeing different numbers. Some say 70%, others say 75%, and the official website isn't super clear.
I've been working through "CST" searches online and the passing requirement seems to vary by state or version? Or am I overthinking this?
My practice test scores are hovering around 66%. Should I be aiming higher before I schedule my actual exam?
Also I noticed on CST - Certified Scrum Trainer — are the practice questions usually harder or easier than the real thing? Trying to calibrate how ready I actually am.
Any recent test takers who can share what the real cutoff is?
For what it's worth from someone who's been through it:
The CST is one of those exams where the practice tests really do prepare you well. The style of questioning is pretty consistent. If you're comfortable with "CST" material under timed conditions, you'll be fine.
The one thing I'd add: read the question stems very carefully. They sometimes add a qualifier that completely changes the right answer and it's easy to miss when you're going fast.
Also check whether you need to schedule the exam in advance — some testing centers book up 2-3 weeks out.
