Passing was 72 out here, before the board decided to drop the exam completely last year.
I think that is a poor decision.
Since it is a True or False test, I also advocate scoring the exam a little differently.
In order to discourage people from inflating their scores by random guessing, each correct answer should receive +1 point, each question left unanswered gets zero, and -1 is tallied for each incorrect response.
This means that a person who knows 60 of the 100 questions would be much more likely to score near 60 as opposed to near 80 if he just guessed on the other 40 questions.
