Tips for Passing the SAP MM Certification Exam

After having gone through the SAP MM certification training material, it is now time to take the exam. Before you begin, there are some key features of the MM Associate Certification Exam that you should be aware of. Firstly, remember that the exam is computer based and the exam time is three hours, during which you need to answer eighty questions.
