Scrum Professional Agile Leadership (PAL I) (PAL-I) — Questions Candidates Actually Ask
The PAL-I exam, officially known as Scrum Professional Agile Leadership (PAL I), is the Scrum test that leads to the Professional Agile Leadership (PAL I) certification at the Intermediate level. Passing it validates the skills employers expect from a certified professional. It is also associated with related credentials such as Professional Scrum Master (PSM), Professional Scrum Product Owner (PSPO).
The PAL-I exam contains 36 questions, and you have 60 minutes to complete them. Work out your per-question pace before test day, and flag slow items instead of stalling on them — time pressure, not knowledge, sinks many first attempts. Timed mock exams in the Actual4Exams test engines are the most reliable way to build that rhythm.
The passing score for the PAL-I exam is 85%, and the official registration fee is $200 USD. If you miss the mark, a retake means paying the full fee again, so book your seat only when you are ready. A practical benchmark: score consistently above the passing line on timed practice tests before scheduling the real exam.
