About the questions

Are these the real exam questions?

No. Real exam questions are protected and sites handing them out are sharing stolen material. Using them can get your Microsoft certifications taken away. Everything here is written by us, from the list of skills Microsoft publishes for each exam.

Will these exact questions come up in my exam?

No, and nobody can honestly promise that. They cover the same topics from the same published outline, so being able to answer these and say why the other options fail is good evidence you understand the material. Whether that is enough on the day is not something we can tell you.

How hard are they?

They are written to the level the skills outline describes, and some are harder than they need to be on purpose. We will not tell you what score here predicts a pass, because nobody has sat both and measured it, and a number invented for a sales page is worth nothing to you. Use the topic breakdown instead: it shows which areas you are weakest in, which is the part you can act on.

Who writes them?

A Microsoft Certified Trainer who works as a security architect on live Microsoft projects. Every question is written against Microsoft's published outline for that exam and links to the documentation it rests on, so you can check us. Not a content farm.

What if I think an answer is wrong?

There is a link under every question to tell us, and it carries the question with it so we know exactly which one you mean. We check it against Microsoft's documentation and fix it if you are right. You will hear back either way.

Using the site

Do I need an account?

No. All the free questions run without an account, and a test you have started is kept in this browser, so closing the tab or reloading by accident does not lose it. An account opens your dashboard, where your score on every exam you have sat, your weakest topics and any unfinished test are gathered together. Signing in keeps your scores and weakest topics against your account, so another device shows the same numbers. A test you have not finished stays in the browser you started it in. A card is only needed if you buy a full exam.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in any browser with nothing to install, though a bigger screen is easier for the longer practice tests, where the scenarios run to a few lines.

Can I retake a test?

As many times as you like, and the questions are shuffled each time. When you finish, you can go straight back through the ones you got wrong in that attempt. What does not carry between attempts is the individual answers: a finished test is kept against your account as a score and a breakdown by topic, which is what your dashboard reads, but the specific options you picked are not stored, so a later attempt cannot hand you back only the ones you missed last time.

Paying

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay once for an exam and it is yours. Nothing renews and no card is kept on file. Buying is not open yet, so this is how it will work rather than how it works today.

Can I get a refund?

Nothing on this site can take your money yet, so there is nothing to refund. When buying opens it will be 14 days, and the refund policy is already written.

What if Microsoft changes the exam?

We rewrite the affected questions and, once buying opens, anyone who owns that exam will get them free
