Passing score

200-201

What it takes to pass CyberOps Associate

Cisco does not publish a fixed cut score for 200-201. Here is what is known, and how to prepare when the target is not a number.

What an unpublished cut score means

Cisco states that the passing score for 200-201 is variable and does not publish it. The exam uses scaled scoring, and the cut can shift between exam revisions as questions are recalibrated.

With no published line there is nothing exact to aim at, and a site that gives you one is guessing. Sit full-length practice under the real time limit and aim for a comfortable margin rather than a precise number.

If you miss it

A retake costs another $300.
