@MedicharlaRenu 

how did you know you obtained 72%?

I don't think they give out the percentage obtained but just pass or fail

Back in our days when I gave the exam around 2015/2016 the percentage was approx 75-80%

But it's not a definite answer.

Hi @MedicharlaRenu 

 

where did you get the percentage from? This is as far as I know not provided by ServiceNow.

Hello @MedicharlaRenu ,

 

I guess when you failed the exam, you received an email from ServiceNow about a detailed report on each section. In the ServiceNow mainline certification exam, you need 70% in each section. 

For example, if you got 80% in three sections and 65% in one section, it will be considered a Fail.

If my response helped, please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @MedicharlaRenu 

I believe the passing score for the CAD exam is 70% or higher ,
You should get pass and got certificate immediately , if your calculation is correct.

I will suggest to raise a case with them and also ask them about the accurate percentage, Since ServiceNow doesn't provide percentage after exam.

Thanks

Hi @MedicharlaRenu 

I’m not sure how you know you got 72%, because for the mainline exam, ServiceNow never discloses the percentage. And honestly, with experience, no one really knows the passing percentage for the mainline exam. You might be referring to micro certifications. Once you clear a micro cert exam, you get a certificate or a badge that you can display in your profile.

The passing score for the ServiceNow Certified Application Developer (CAD) exam is approximately 70%. However, the exact passing score may vary slightly depending on the difficulty of the exam session, as ServiceNow does not always publish a fixed percentage.
