What the SAFe Advanced Scrum Master exam tests

- Agile and Scrum anti-patterns: spotting and fixing common team and ART dysfunctions.

- Flow and high-performing teams: improving flow, facilitation and coaching.
- AI-empowered SAFe: using AI in the role, writing good prompts and using AI responsibly.
Sample SAFe Advanced Scrum Master exam question
Several teams on an ART keep missing PI objectives because of dependencies they discover mid-PI. What should an Advanced Scrum Master do first?
- Help the teams make dependencies visible on the ART planning board and coordinate them through the Coach Sync.
- Ask the Release Train Engineer to assign the dependencies to one team.
- Lower the PI objectives for all teams.
- Tell each team to work around the other teams.
Answer: 1. Hidden dependencies are a flow problem across teams. Making them visible and coordinating them regularly lets the teams solve them together instead of being surprised mid-PI. Every question in our bank explains its answer like this.
Two ways to prepare: Practice Mode and Mock Exam Mode
- Practice Mode: study at your own pace. Choose how many questions you want in each session, from a short set to all 100+ questions, with no time limit and an explanation after every answer. Progress saves automatically.
- Mock Exam Mode (Timed Mode): sit a full mock exam that mimics the real one: 60 random questions in 120 minutes, scored at the end. Every attempt draws a new random set.
- Benchmarking: compare your scores with other candidates and see which topics need work.
- Lifetime access with updates whenever Scaled Agile changes the exam.

SAFe Advanced Scrum Master FAQ
Do I need SAFe Scrum Master first? Scaled Agile recommends SSM or equivalent experience before SASM, because the exam assumes you already know the Scrum Master role in SAFe.
Do I have to take the course? Yes. Scaled Agile only gives exam access to people who attend the matching course, and the first attempt is included in the course fee if you take it within 60 days.
How hard is the SASM exam? Harder than SSM. It has more questions, more scenarios with several reasonable answers, and an 82% pass mark.
Does this cover the new AI-Empowered exam? Yes. Scaled Agile added AI topics to the exam in 2026, about 12% to 14% of the questions, and our bank includes them.
Does SASM expire? Yes. SAFe certifications are renewed every year through Scaled Agile.
Are these real exam questions or dumps? Neither. Scaled Agile’s real questions are confidential, and using dumps breaks its exam rules and can cost you the certification. These are original questions written to the same format and topics, each with an explanation.
What if I don’t pass? Our money-back guarantee covers you. See the guarantee terms.
