I'm not sure.....there are 200 questions, and 20 of them don't count (according to the AAMA website). So you have 180 questions that DO count. My guess is you would need at least 80% of them right.

The sections you should definitely review: medical terminology, A&P, and the administrative part. Those are the areas most of my questions came from. But be sure you review it ALL. You'll know immediately after the test is done if you "unofficially" passed or not.

Good luck, Steve!
