Free PSM I practice questions

361 Professional Scrum Master I questions, untimed and free. Each one explains why the correct answer is correct — and why the plausible wrong ones are wrong.

PSM I checks that you know Scrum as the Scrum Guide describes it, and can apply it. Marks are mostly lost in three places: event timeboxes, the commitment attached to each artifact (Product Goal, Sprint Goal, Definition of Done), and who holds which accountability in the Scrum Team.

At 85%, you can afford 12 wrong answers out of 80. Start with the topics you hesitate on, read every explanation even when you were right, then sit a full mock exam to hold the pace of 45 seconds a question.
