C1000-136 Exam FAQs for 2026 Candidates
Which certification does the C1000-136 exam lead to?
The C1000-136 exam is the official IBM exam behind the IBM Certification certification, validating the skills measured by the IBM Cloud Pak for Data v4.x Solution Architecture credential. It also connects to IBM Certified Solution Architect - Cloud Pak for Data v4.x, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.
How many questions are on the C1000-136 exam, and how much time do I get?
The C1000-136 exam contains 63 questions to be completed within 90 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.
What score do I need to pass the C1000-136 exam, and what does it cost?
The passing score for the C1000-136 exam is 42 out of 63, and the official registration fee is USD 200 (approx.). Retakes are not discounted — every new attempt means paying the full fee again — so it pays to measure yourself before you book. Work through the 65 practice questions on Getcertkey, sit a timed practice test, and schedule your exam only when your scores are consistently comfortable. That simple habit is the cheapest exam strategy there is.
