The 156-835 exam is the official Check Point exam behind the CCME certification, validating the skills measured by the CheckPoint Check Point Certified Maestro Expert credential. It sits at the Expert / Specialist level of the Check Point certification program. It also connects to Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA), Check Point Certified Security Expert (CCSE), so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

The 156-835 exam contains Approximately 50 questions to be completed within 60 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Lead2Passed test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

The passing score for the 156-835 exam is Not officially published, and the official registration fee is Approx. USD $250. Retakes are not discounted — every new attempt means paying the full fee again — so it pays to measure yourself before you book. Work through the 66 practice questions on Lead2Passed, sit a timed practice test, and schedule your exam only when your scores are consistently comfortable. That simple habit is the cheapest exam strategy there is.

Recommended experience with Check Point Maestro and prior Check Point certifications (CCSA/CCSE) but no strict prerequisite mandated Requirements can change when Check Point revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.
