They are very strict. For a type of process I had to pass several separate certifications designed by Netflix and they only accepted 100% score. If you plan on working for Netflix, they do love their tests...
Regarding the test, as previously mentioned, they do have several types of processes in addition to actual subtitling. For some of them, you do not have to translate or subtitle at all. The first parts, particularly the 4th part, are designed for these processes. They are not less important, as some may believe, they simply serve a different purpose.
I was led to believe that having an H number is important, because they may require only people with H numbers for some projects.
If you fail the test, you can retake it to get a better score.
