Exam facts verified against NVIDIA's NCA-GENM page on 2026-10-08. Unverified: domains[].objectives. The official page lists domain names and weights only; objective-level detail is in NVIDIA's study guide PDF and is not reproduced here. NVIDIA's page is internally inconsistent on question count: summary says 50 questions, exam details say "50-60 multiple-choice". Always confirm on nvidia.com before booking.
