The passing mark for the NS0-161 exam is Pass/fail score determined by NetApp (not publicly disclosed), and the official registration fee is $150 USD.

Protect that spend by rehearsing first: drill 62 practice questions at Pass4suresVCE under timed conditions until your scores clear the passing mark with margin, then book.
