How can we know if a test has been changed when a new feature or function is added?
Microsoft undertakes a review of its tests every two months. On the other hand, any changes to the goal domain or current questions are incorporated into the exam. In addition, inappropriate questions are removed from the exam, and some elements are modified or replaced. Microsoft has the right to make changes to the content to ensure that certifications remain valid and current.
Is there a negative consequence if you answer incorrectly?
If you respond incorrectly, you will not be penalized. You must react completely and precisely to obtain a point for a single-point item. You also don’t get points for incorrect elements of your response.
On the score report, is there a numerical score for each segment?
The score reports do not include a numerical score for each segment. In the score reports, just the pass/fail status is displayed, with an overall numerical score. Instead of providing a numerical score for each section, we provide score bars to show subject areas of strength and weakness.
What elements are taken into account when calculating exam results?
The points you earned on each question are totaled up and compared to the cut score to determine whether you passed or failed the exam.
Is there a problem with the result computation if I get the same score every time I retake the exam?
No. The fact that you get the same score on multiple attempts does not indicate that the program that calculates the results is flawed. It’s not uncommon for candidates to achieve similar or identical results on multiple exam attempts. This result demonstrates the exam’s consistency in evaluating skills in this content group. If this occurs frequently, you should reconsider your exam preparation and seek out alternative methods of studying and practicing the skills examined by the exam.
What is the best way for me to provide feedback on study materials or exam preparation?
Please contact the teacher directly if you have any queries or issues regarding a Microsoft training course that is being taught by him or her. If you have any feedback, fill out the feedback form that occurs after you complete a Microsoft online course. Microsoft has no control over and is not liable for the content of third-party study materials. If you have any questions or concerns about exam preparation resources created by third parties, please contact the publishers directly.
Is it possible to re-evaluate my score?
Yes, if you have any issues with the technical accuracy of a particular article, you may submit an online inquiry. An Item Challenge form will be mailed to you. In contrast, a re-evaluation of your score is unlikely to change your pass/fail status. A re-evaluation of your exam results seldom changes the final outcome of an exam because Microsoft must ensure that candidates who pass examinations and acquire certifications have demonstrated the required proficiency level(s) throughout the skill domain(s). We can’t assume you would have answered a question correctly if it wasn’t inaccurate in some way. We provide candidates the opportunity to retake the exam for free in specific circumstances.
