Hello, 

Thanks for your question! 
That's the general idea yes, but if you write us about e.g. not completing due to some emergency, we usually provide you with one more attempt. 

FYI, here's a few more questions that we typically get.

How many attempts do I have for an exam? 
You have 2 attempts to pass the exam. To pass the exam, you'll need to score 90% or above. 50% of the questions come from the quizzes available with the lessons, which you can use to practice beforehand. If you fail, you won't be able to use your second attempt until 6 days later. 

How long do I have to complete the exam? 
You will have 90 minutes to complete any Wwise Certification exam. The Wwise 101 and Wwise 201 exams consist of 80 questions. 

Will I be able to review my mistakes after I complete and submit the exam? 
No. You will receive an overview of how many questions you answered correctly per lesson, along with time spent, and your overall mark. 

Will the purchase of an exam expire? 
Once purchased, there's no time limit for when you can take an exam. 

All that aside, keep in mind that more than 70% pass the Wwise-101 in their first attempt. So most don't even need their second attempt. 

Hope that clears it all up. 

All the best
