The Novell Cni-upgrading to netware 6.5 (exam code 50-888) is the exam you pass to earn the CNI (Certified Novell Instructor) certification, a credential at the Professional level. It is also connected with related credentials such as CNA, CNE, Novell NetWare 6.5 Certification Track. If you are mapping out a certification path with Novell, this exam is a milestone worth planning around.

The 50-888 exam includes 70 questions, and you have 90 minutes to complete them. With that many questions on the clock, pacing is part of the challenge: divide your time into rough blocks as you go, and flag the items that stall you so you can circle back at the end instead of burning minutes on a single question. A week or two before your exam date, sit at least one full timed session in the Actual4dump test engine under the same time limit, so the pace feels familiar rather than frantic on the day.

You need 594/800 (≈74.25%) to pass the 50-888 exam, and the official registration fee is $125–$150 USD. That fee is due again in full for every retake, which makes thorough preparation the cheaper investment by far. Before you book your seat, test yourself with the Actual4dump practice questions until you are scoring comfortably above the passing mark on a consistent basis — it is the simplest way to avoid paying for the same exam twice.

Active CNI status or CNA/CNE certification; prior NetWare administration experience
