PRMIA Exam II: Mathematical Foundations of Risk Measurement - 2015 Edition Exam FAQ: What Candidates Ask Most
What is the PRMIA 8007 exam?
The 8007 exam is the official PRMIA exam behind the PRM certification, validating the skills measured by the PRMIA Exam II: Mathematical Foundations of Risk Measurement - 2015 Edition credential. It sits at the Professional level of the PRMIA certification program. It also connects to Professional Risk Manager (PRM) Certification, Exam I: Finance Theory, Financial Instruments and Financial Markets - 2015 Edition, Exam III: Risk Management Frameworks, Operational Risk, Credit Risk, Counterparty Risk, Market Risk, ALM, FTP - 2015 Edition, Exam IV: Case Studies, Standards, Governance, Best Practices and Ethics - 2015 Edition, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.
How many questions are on the 8007 exam, and how much time do I get?
The 8007 exam contains 24 questions to be completed within 120 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 8007 exam, and what does it cost?
The passing score for the 8007 exam is 60%, and the official registration fee is USD 200. 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 133 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.
