CompTIA RF0-001 Exam: Frequently Asked Questions
The CompTIA RFID+ Certification exam is the official CompTIA test registered under exam code RF0-001. Passing it earns you the RFID+ certification, a credential at the Professional level. CompTIA exams are valued because they test job-ready skills, so a passing score here carries real weight on a resume.
The CompTIA RFID+ Certification exam includes Up to 100 questions to be completed within 90 minutes. Do the pacing math before exam day: with that many items on the clock, you need a steady rhythm and the discipline to flag a hard question and move on instead of stalling. Two or three full timed sessions with the ActualCollection test engine will show you exactly what that pace feels like, so time pressure stops being a factor on the real day.
To pass the CompTIA RFID+ Certification exam you need 700 (on a 100–900 scale), and the official registration fee is $258 USD (historical pricing; may vary by region and provider). A retake is not discounted: a failed attempt means paying the full $258 USD (historical pricing; may vary by region and provider) again, so treat your first sitting as the expensive one. A sensible rule is to book your seat only after you are scoring comfortably above the passing mark on the ActualCollection practice tests, not just squeaking past it once.
