Thank you

Request clarification before answering.
Dates/locations depend upon where you are and can be found in the online content...you can also schedule your exam there, as I recall. When you sit down for the exam (done on a PC), the computer will generate a set of questions for you from the bank of 500 or more. Scoring is immediate upon completion (or it was for me when I took SCM Order Fulfillment exam). You can take nothing with you to the seat, and the exam is timed.
I am aware that currently SAP is offering multiple levels, in NetWeaver for ABAP or Java tracks, the Development Associate, Professional and (coming soon, I read) Master. I think the Associate level is 90 questions, with three hour time limit.
There is an excellent manual, which I recently purchased, entitled "ABAP with NetWeaver 7.0", described as an "SAP Certification Success Guide" for the SAP Certified Development Associate. The manual is available from SAP Press and contains sample questions for each of the many chapters. This manual is intended as prep for exam C_TAW12_70, the development associate in ABAP. Review the content carefully...the associate and professional levels are significantly different in content and knowledge requirements.
You can find exam content and weighting, along with some sample questions, in the online resources for SAP certification.
In my experience, there were two questions that contained code snippets for my earliest ABAP certification. The remainder was about a variety of stuff from DDIC, to function keys to all aspects of the development workbench. So, don't expect to see code or to write code for the exam.
Scoring has also been changed....previously you got points for every right choice, so you could help yourself by guessing...Today, on multiple correct choices answers, you must exactly match the correct pattern (like A,B,E true, C,D false) to get ANY points for the question....that eliminates guessing, entirely, I think.
