Brian,

According to their Technical Data Sheet, there are two versions of the exam. One has 78 questions, the other has 79:

I know at first glance this might seem like a bit of a negative (compared to only 60 questions on the CLEP), but the more questions there are, the less any SINGLE answer is worth. This might actually help you since any question you get wrong will have slightly less of an impact on your overall score.
