Retake the PSM1 exam
I am almost confident to take the PSM1 exam today. Just in case, if I did not cut through, what's the policy on retaking the exam ?
Do I have to pay everytime I retake the exam ? And how soon can I retake the exam ?
Thank you.

I am preparing and planning to appear PSM 1 certification. could you please suggest what I need to focus and refer more to get through the certification in one attempt.
Thank you
That would be the Scrum Guide.
There is no other way than to pay and take the exam again. If you were allowed to take more than one attempt, you will not be taking the exam at the right time. Idea is to ensure that you are confident in your learning and understanding. If you feel lack of confidence in your learning, you should spend more time trying to go through reading material.
And trust me, that amount you spend on each attempt is nothing in long run. I have had that happen to me twice, where I missed by just couple percentage. Both times I spent 6 months more continuing my learning, and I actually learnt more than I could have if I finished the exam in first attempt. So, don't worry if you fail. It just means you got one more chance to learn.
Can I redo the PSM I exam after I already passed it, just for refreshing my memory? :P
I do not think the site will prevent you from retaking one of its exams, even if you have passed, as they are receiving your money after all.
Normally, the only reason to retake one of this sites exams would be if you wish to become a trainer and one of your pass marks is below that required to become eligible to move to the next stage of the process.
