Huawei exams are valued because they test job-ready skills, so a passing score here carries real weight on a resume.
The Huawei HCIP-Datacom exam includes 60 (approx.) questions to be completed within 90 minutes. Do the pacing math before exam day: with that many items on the clock, you need a steady rhythm and the discipline to flag a hard question and move on instead of stalling. Two or three full timed sessions with the GetValidTest test engine will show you exactly what that pace feels like, so time pressure stops being a factor on the real day.
To pass the Huawei HCIP-Datacom exam you need 600/1000, and the official registration fee is USD 180 (approx.). A retake is not discounted: a failed attempt means paying the full USD 180 (approx.) again, so treat your first sitting as the expensive one.
