Via the hexagon: time and cost are fixed and protected, scope and quality flex within agreed tolerances (using MoSCoW), and benefits and risk are actively monitored — so the Project Board keeps oversight while teams deliver iteratively.
The hexagon shows the six project aspects and which to fix vs flex; the Agilometer scores how ready the project environment is for agile working, guiding how much agile tailoring is appropriate.
40 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes, closed book, no negative marking — the current Version 2 exam built on PRINCE2 7 terminology (the older 50-question Version 1 is being retired).
