Common Questions About the IBM S1000-007 Exam
What is the IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty exam all about?
The S1000-007 exam is the official IBM exam behind the IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty certification, validating the skills measured by the IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty credential. It sits at the Specialty level of the IBM certification program. It also connects to IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty, IBM AIX v7.3 Administrator Specialty, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.
How many questions are on the S1000-007 exam, and how much time do I get?
The S1000-007 exam contains 46 questions to be completed within 75 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 S1000-007 exam, and what does it cost?
The passing score for the S1000-007 exam is 31 out of 46, and the official registration fee is USD $100. 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 94 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 S1000-007 exam?
Recommended experience with AIX system administration and basic UNIX/Linux knowledge. No mandatory prerequisite exam required. Requirements can change when IBM revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.

What if I fail the S1000-007 exam, and how is my order delivered?
