The Introduction-to-IT exam, officially known as WGU Introduction to IT, is the WGU test that leads to the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (foundational course requirement) certification at the Associate level. Passing it validates the skills employers expect from a certified professional.

The Introduction-to-IT exam contains Approximately 60–70 multiple-choice questions (varies by version) questions, and you have 120 minutes to complete them. Work out your per-question pace before test day, and flag slow items instead of stalling on them — time pressure, not knowledge, sinks many first attempts. Timed mock exams in the ValidTorrent test engines are the most reliable way to build that rhythm.

The passing score for the Introduction-to-IT exam is Competency-based (WGU passing standard: 'Competent' / typically equivalent to ~70%+ benchmark, not publicly fixed), and the official registration fee is Included in WGU tuition (no separate exam fee). If you miss the mark, a retake means paying the full fee again, so book your seat only when you are ready. A practical benchmark: score consistently above the passing line on timed practice tests before scheduling the real exam.
