Notes:
System Requirements
A practice test simulates the actual test and aims to provide you with optimal preparation for what to expect on the real exam. A MeasureUp practice test includes around 150 questions covering the exam objective domains. There are two possible test-taking modes to prepare students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.
- Practice Mode allows users to highly customize their testing environment. They may select how many questions to include, the maximum time to finish, randomize question order, and choose how and which questions are shown.
- Certification Mode simulates the actual testing environment. It is timed and does not permit users to view answers or explanations until after the test.

How to use the SC-300 Practice Test?
We first recommend you take the SC-300 practice test in certification mode. By studying the generated report on completing the test, you will get a helpful overview of which areas require further attention. You should then take the test in practice mode in order to develop those areas. Once you are confident you have improved your knowledge in these areas, you can re-take the test in certification mode and, on passing 3 consecutive times with a score of 90%, you know you are exam-ready!
Will the questions be the same as the actual 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.
