AMFTRB MFT Exam exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The AMFTRB and PTC candidate handbook describes the National MFT Examination as 180 multiple-choice questions taken in four hours; the portal mock uses 180 questions and 240 minutes. The exam covers six domains: The Practice of Systemic Therapy 16 percent, Assessing, Hypothesizing, and Diagnosing 16 percent, Designing and Conducting Treatment 17 percent, Evaluating Ongoing Process and Terminating Treatment 16 percent, Managing Crisis Situations 16 percent, and Maintaining Ethical, Legal, and Professional Standards 19 percent. AMFTRB has announced a 2027 edition of the exam in which 155 of the 180 items are scored and 25 are unscored pretest items; the 2026 edition counts all 180. AMFTRB does not publish a fixed passing score; the passing standard is set by a panel of expert judges using a modified Angoff method, so the mock shows a percent score only as a rough self-check and not as a prediction of your official result. AMFTRB's exam roadmap page lists an examination fee of $365 with no discounts; rescheduling and transfer fees are charged separately, so confirm the current fee schedule in the PTC candidate handbook before you register. The content outline spreads questions across 6 areas; the largest are Maintaining Ethical, Legal, and Professional Standards (19.0%); Designing and Conducting Treatment (17.0%); The Practice of Systemic Therapy (16.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. Your state or provincial licensing board approves candidates to take the exam; confirm eligibility and the application steps with your board and the AMFTRB candidate handbook.
