Ideally, you would have some basic knowledge of Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365, and you would be keen to deepen your knowledge about Microsoft Security, compliance, and identity solutions.

System Requirements

A practice test is an informal exam that simulates the real test and aims to prepare you better for what to expect on the actual exam. A MeasureUp practice test contains approximately 150 questions covering all of the exam objective domains. In a MeasureUp practice test there are two specific test-taking modes to train students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.

The Practice Mode enables users to highly customize their testing environment. Users are able to select how many questions they want to include in their assessment, the maximum completion time, the possibility to randomize the question order, and select how and which questions will be displayed in the test.
The Certification Mode simulates the actual testing environment users will find when taking a certification exam. They are timed and do not allow users to request the answers and explanations to questions until after the test.

How to use an online Practice Test?

In a Practice Test there are two specific test-taking modes to prepare students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.

Practice Mode. The Practice Mode allows users to highly customize their testing environment. They may select how many questions they want to include in their assessment, the maximum time to finish the test, the possibility to randomize the question order, and select how and which questions will be shown in the test.
Certification Mode. The Certification Mode simulates the actual testing environment users will encounter when taking a certification exam. They are timed and do not allow users to request the answers and explanations to questions until after the test.

Will the questions be the same as the actual SC-900 exam?

Although the questions will emulate those of the official exam in terms of style, content, level of difficulty, for reasons of copyright they will not be exactly the same. This will allow you to fully understand the content you are studying so that, no matter how the questions are focused, you can be confident you are covering the same material and that you will have no problem in passing the exam.
