Can I Switch Exams After Purchase?

No — a Premium purchase is tied to the specific certification exam you bought it for, and it cannot be moved to a different one. Each exam is its own product, so preparing for another exam means a separate purchase for that exam rather than switching the one you already hold.

This is not a restriction waiting to be lifted so much as the shape of the product: what you buy is access to one exam’s Premium simulations, not a general credit you later point at whichever exam you like.

Why Each IT Exam Is Its Own Purchase

A Premium exam is priced, built, and activated around a single certification — its question pool is drawn to that exam’s published objectives, and buying it unlocks that pool and no other. The model is close to a node-locked software license, which authorizes the one machine it was issued for rather than any machine you later move it to. So a purchase made for one exam stays with that exam: a security certification and a networking certification are two separate products even when both are bought from the same account. Preparing for an additional exam is therefore a fresh purchase for that exam, made from its own page, and it leaves the Premium you already hold untouched.

So Premium does not switch between exams; it belongs to the exam it was bought for. Adding another certification to your preparation is simply another one-time purchase, made the same way from that exam’s own page.
