If you are purchasing for a company, take all three versions of F5 BIG-IP Administrator, since different employees study differently. If you are buying for yourself, pick the single version that matches your habits: the PDF for printing and writing on paper, the PC test engine for simulation tests with scored feedback, or the APP online engine for cross-platform use with offline support.
201 requires 245 / 350 (scaled, approx 70%) to pass, and the official exam fee is USD 180. Remember that a retake means paying that fee again, which is why focused preparation matters.
The 201 exam contains 80 (70 scored, 10 unscored) questions within 90 minutes minutes. Rehearsing under the same limit on the Pass4suresVCE engine builds calm, automatic pacing.
