Scrum Professional Scrum with Kanban level I Exam FAQ: What Candidates Ask Most

What is the Scrum PSK-I exam?

The PSK-I exam is the official Scrum.org exam behind the Professional Scrum with Kanban (PSK I) certification, validating the skills measured by the Scrum Professional Scrum with Kanban level I credential. It sits at the Professional level of the Scrum.org certification program. It also connects to Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I), Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I), so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

How many questions are on the PSK-I exam, and how much time do I get?

The PSK-I exam contains 45 questions to be completed within 60 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 PSK-I exam, and what does it cost?

The passing score for the PSK-I exam is 85%, and the official registration fee is $200 USD. 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 75 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.

Are there any prerequisites for the PSK-I exam?
