Latest PMP exam is based on domains, (i.e. People, Process, Business Context). Each Domain has multiple Tasks which is the project manager's responsibility. Under task there would be enablers which like examples or illustrations within the task. These are available in Exam Content Outline. This is for your reference.

7. Test Center Lists:

After 2020, PMI allows participants to take exams from home; however, I always recommend going to the test center (Wonder why? check my another article: https://www.dhirubhai.net/pulse/pmp-exam-5-key-things-keep-mind-before-scheduling-mandar/).

This is conducted by Pearson VUE. It has test centers across the globe. You can always look for a test center and schedule an exam.
