ASE G1 Test exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The G1 certification test has 55 scored questions and 10 unscored research questions that are not identified, so answer every question; you have 90 minutes (ASE G1 test page). ASE's study guide groups the scored questions into seven areas: Engine Systems 9, Automatic Transmission/Transaxle 4, Manual Drive Train and Axles 6, Suspension and Steering 13, Brakes 11, Electrical 8 and Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning 4 (ASE G1 Official Study Guide, 2026 edition). You can take the test in person at a Prometric test center or online with remote proctoring where eligible, and the G1 test is also offered in Spanish (ASE G1 test page). ASE does not publish a passing score for the G1 test, so the portal mock shows 70 percent only as a self-check target. Your official result comes from ASE. ASE's Register Now page lists a $34 registration fee per order plus $62 for each general test; fees and registration windows change, so confirm them on ase.com before you register. The content outline spreads questions across 7 areas; the largest are Suspension and Steering (23.6%); Brakes (20.0%); Engine Systems (16.4%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. ASE certification needs a passing test result plus documented hands-on work experience, or a combination of formal training and experience; the amount varies by test (ASE).
