The 70-536 exam is the core exam for both the MCTS and MCPD certification paths. The exam is specifically targeted towards the .NET framework and can be applied to the .NET 2.0 and .NET 3.5. The exam targets the .NET development foundation.
The 70-536 exam consists of between 50 and 60 questions and you have just over 2 hours to complete the exam. If English is your second language you will be granted more time but this is must be declared when you book the exam. Before the test starts you around 15 mins to read the terms and conditions, and also complete a questionnaire about your chosen testing centre.
Most testing centres prefer that you arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of your exam so that you have time to register.
