are not Microsoft employees). This list of skills, called the “objective domain,” is the basis for exam development.
The number of questions that measure each skill area is determined through the
sections of the
exam measuring critical and/or more frequently performed skills will contain more questions than those that assess
less important or less frequently performed skills.All learning materials related to exams, including Microsoft training and Microsoft Press resources, are developed independently
of exam content, because the exams are intended to assess competence when using the technology, not the effectiveness
of training materials or learning. Qualified candidates must have sufficient experience in working with the technology
to pass the exam. Training is a great first step in preparing for a Microsoft Certification exam, but it is not required
and does not guarantee that you will pass the exam. Experience is required.Microsoft works hard to ensure that some form of training material exists for all skills that will be measured on an
exam. Use the information provided on the exam details page to identify which Microsoft training resources cover the
skills assessed in the exam.The best way to prepare for an exam is to practice the skills listed in the "Skills measured" section of the exam details
page. The exam details page also contains a list of preparation tools and resources provided by Microsoft that candidates
may find helpful, and
may have additional learning materials and resources to help you prepare for an exam. You may also consider reading about how tasks assessed on the exam are performed (for example, in white papers and on
blogs, MSDN, TechNet, and so on), listening to others describe how tasks are performed, watching others complete them,
and leveraging community resources, such as

do on the job. Scenario-based questions included in the case studies are designed to test your ability to identify
the critical information needed to solve a problem and then analyze and synthesize it to make decisions. You can refer
to scenario details as often as you’d like while you are working on questions in a case study.You may review the questions in a case study until you move to the next case or section of the exam. Once you leave
a case study, however, you will not be able to review the questions associated with that case. When you complete a

the existing questions to determine whether any content areas and/or questions have become technically inaccurate because
of the changes. Technically inaccurate questions are removed from the exam. If the change adds functionality that maps
to an existing objective, new items may be included to address this functionality without making changes to the objective
such changes will be reflected in the ”may include” statements. Occasionally, new objectives may be added to
cover new skills and/or functionality that subject-matter experts believe is necessary to demonstrate competence with

to be added to the exam. We also include information about such updates in our newsletters, blogs, and through other
appropriate communication channels, and we encourage you to sign up for such communications if you would like to know
about these types of changes to the exam content.Because our primary communication with candidates about exam content is through the exam details page, we will update

that you review it regularly as you prepare to take an exam. If you are preparing for an exam on a technology that has an upcoming revision or service pack, we recommend that you
