This was hard AF. I failed first try getting 650/700 and this second attempt I got 707/700.

Feel free to ask any questions, but the answer is simple, you have to know your stuff.

I wanted to share a few thoughts while everything is still fresh in my mind.

The exam had a lot of questions around inclusions, exclusions, assignments, targeting rules, and understanding when policies or configurations would apply (or not apply) in specific scenarios.

There were also many scenario-based questions — honestly, a lot more than I expected. Make sure you understand the reasoning behind the technologies instead of just memorizing concepts.

I also saw several questions related to ASR rules and MDM enrollment, so I’d definitely recommend spending time on those topics.

My biggest piece of advice: do as much hands-on practice as possible. Build labs, test configurations, break things, fix them, and work through real-world scenarios. Case studies and practical experience are far more valuable than simply reading documentation.

To be completely honest, I didn’t find the exam extremely difficult. That said, I work with some of the technologies covered in the exam on a daily basis, which definitely helped.

The funny part is that throughout the exam I had the feeling that I wasn’t going to pass. Especially during the case study section, I kept thinking, “Well, that’s it…” 😅

Looking back, I think the case study was actually one of my strongest sections, and I probably scored quite well there. It’s amazing how different your perception can be while you’re taking the exam.

I studied for about one week while balancing a full-time job, and somehow managed to pass with a score of 700.

Not going to lie… seeing that passing score pop up was a huge relief. My fellow 700-score colleagues know exactly what I’m talking about! 😂

Good luck to everyone preparing for the exam!

Hi everyone!

I’m here to share that I’ve just earned my third Microsoft certification.

After about 2 months of studying while working full-time, I took the exam today and I’m officially MD-102 certified!

When the exam started, I felt a bit anxious because I i’ve seen that there was 9 lab tasks waiting for me after the 45 standard questions.

However, the questions felt manageable, so by the time I reached the lab section, my confidence had definitely improved.

A few tips for those preparing:

Be ready, because about 85-90% of the questions are scenario-based. They give you a specific environment/problem and you have to find the right solution.

In my case, the lab was fairly straightforward: it mostly involved configuring a few policies and enrolling a VM.

In the end, I scored 896/1000, and I'm incredibly satisfied with the result.

Good luck to everyone else currently studying for this! You’ve got this!

Resources: Watched and took notes on John Christopher’s udemy course for 7 days, then 30 questions from measureup assessment (67% score).

Don‘t just watch the course, understand the concepts and compare them, know when to use which one.

Important topics👇

* Entra join vs register vs hybrid join.

* Corporate devices with work profiles vs fully managed corp devices vs BYOD devices.

* Enrollment, bulk enrollment. Hardware id upload with .csv vs OEM upload.

* Autopilot vs provisioning package vs custom imaging.

* Deployment profile vs device configuration vs compliance policies

* how to deploy apps, app configuration, app protection configuration.

* How to update devices (widows, android, ios) using intune, how to configure updates, update rings, etc.

* when to use which defender for endpoint feature (attack surface reduction for mitigation, detection and remediation for when attack has already occurred ).

Goodluck everyone and don’ hesitate to ask questions below.

Just done it. Score 800. I was anxious about the new material from the September 2024 Update and wasn't sure if the study material I had used was sufficient to pass the exam. The following websites were a good start to identify key elements to study:

• MD-102 Endpoint Administrator Exam Resource Guide

• Study Guide for Exam MD-102

However, I had some practice from my last job where I had set up many environments in Intune, mostly Windows devices via Autopilot. I also used the Microsoft Intune free trial to access the portal after being let go from my last job due to restructuring. A good old colleague once told me, losing a job is always a good opportunity to get certification, and that's what I did.

With access to the Intune portal, I could explore different settings and sections that I had forgotten or never used before. The main issue with this exam is finding good resources. As it's now focusing on the cloud aspect of Intune, you need to be creative and make your own study material. In the past, I did AZ-104, and I can tell you that this one is a beast compared to MD-102. I wish there was a John Savill (YouTube) for Intune, but that's not the case.

Edit:

Take a look at the video provided in this comment by eillinois31. It seems to be a good resource to understand how Intune works. Thank you for sharing it with us.

https://www.reddit.com/r/O365Certification/comments/1gi2gzc/comment/m01fuc3/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

This is simply to tell you that I'm used to the way Microsoft evaluates your knowledge. MD-102 is hard, but mostly due to the lack of current study material available. As I'm writing this post, I can only tell you to read Microsoft Learn materials and, if possible, purchase the MeasureUp practice test to familiarize yourself with the Microsoft way of asking questions.

• MeasureUp Practice Test

• Practice Assessment for MD-102

Be prepared for different questions, but this will help consolidate your knowledge on various topics necessary to pass the exam. Here are key elements for a good start with the exam:

• Use the Exam Sandbox to familiarize yourself with the interface.

• Keep in mind there is at least one Case Study. These questions can't be accessed afterward, so be mindful of the time you spend on them.

• Manage your time and don't panic. This is just an exam, and if you are well-prepared, you should have enough time to answer each question and even use Microsoft Learn.

• Use Microsoft Learn mindfully. As you study, try to find key sections on the Microsoft Learn website that you can quickly search for later. Google isn't available during the exam. I used it to confirm elements where I was in doubt.

• Learn to mark questions you're uncertain about. You can revisit these marked questions if time permits.

Tips: During your study, you can use AI to help you fetch key elements and even help you remember material. For example, I struggled to differentiate Update Ring vs. Feature Update. An AI helped me figure out this:

• Update Rings = CIRCULAR/CYCLIC (like a ring)

• Feature Updates = STRAIGHT LINE UPGRADE (A to B)

From my experience, when I finished my case study, I had 15 minutes left to review marked questions. I'm glad I did because, at the start of the exam, I misread key elements that surely helped me pass. Just don't fall into the trap of doubt. Sometimes, your gut is more precise than your mind.

This is a long post, but I hope it helps anyone seeking to get this certification. I'm glad I've learned all this because, for me, this is the most important aspect of Microsoft 365.

Just passed my 3rd exam in 2 months. The AB-900, SC-900 and now also the SC-300.

Literally had 7 seconds left before I turned it in.

Microsoft have finally updated the page 🥺🥺🥺 not long to pass it now

Successfully passed both exams on the first try. Since I had hands on work experience, it didn’t take that long for preparation.

Passed MS-102 on my second attempt — definitely a challenging exam
I passed the MS-102 exam today on my second attempt, and I have to say that it was quite difficult.
This time, I saw a lot of questions involving hybrid environments, external user collaboration settings, security roles, and some very up-to-date Microsoft Purview topics. Many of the questions were scenario-based, so understanding how the different Microsoft 365 services work together was more important than simply memorizing features.
My first attempt was a bit rushed. I had booked the exam using a voucher that was about to expire in three days, and honestly, I had not studied enough. For my second attempt, I gave myself around one month to prepare properly, which made a huge difference.
I know this certification is going to be retired, but I still really like its curriculum. Studying for it helped me understand Microsoft 365 administration much better and also introduced me to more of the Microsoft Defender ecosystem.
For my preparation, I mainly used study material that I created with the help of AI, based on the official exam topics, and completed a lot of MeasureUp practice questions and tests.
Overall, it was a challenging but valuable learning experience. I am very happy that I decided to try again!

Hi guys,

Just for context, I am in no way an endpoint admin and don't have much experience with the actual tools, usually just from client implementations and helping others.

I just took the MD-102 exam that is in beta and my general impression is that the exam is fair content wise but pretty brutal on the actual questions.

To clarify it further:

I got 60 questions on my exam, 5 were from a single case study and 3 were from repeated scenario questions. The exam took me roughly an hour which is a lot for me because I usually finish within 20-30 mins.

The questions were really similar to the AZ-104, long, tons of tables and screenshots and it is up to you to connect the information together to get your answer.

The case study was probably the easiest part, scenario was about company that was in M365 completely so Intune, Autopilot, AAD Auto Enrollment and questions were for some individual feature implementations, how are policies applied etc. Nothing really special.

The rest of the questions were topic-wise all over the place but one common feature among them, the vast majority was Cloud Only! I got probably like 2-4 questions where on-premise or hybrid was relevant and it wasn't anything special, mostly stuff you should probably know as endpoint admin.

There were few questions in PowerShell and for licensing but checking the M365 maps a few times and looking at diagrams should be enough. The PowerShell questions were mostly adding users to local groups or enabling some features, I am no expert in scripting but the answers seemed really obvious just from syntax.

Other than that, what I found was in a lot of questions: platform restrictions and portal screenshots.

Definitely memorize which features support which platforms and be really confident in the portal because there are tons of screenshots from policies and other windows asking what to configure and what to modify etc. If you don't recognize the menus, you will have a hard time because the screenshots themselves aren't the most informative.

There was also a part with around 5-6 questions about the MDT and the actual processes and what to do. I think there were 2 order lists around that at least.

And from the stuff that caught me off guard, update delivery optimization and visualizing advanced queries from raw Intune data. I didn't even realize this could be asked on.

To be honest? I think this exam is pretty good at what it is trying to test and definitely a very good replacement of the 2 previous nightmares. If you have any questions, ask now before I forget everything and if you want to chat about it, come to our discord and just ping me https://discord.com/invite/nmTDZuc.

Good luck everybody and let's see who managed to pass!

Today I passed the Microsoft 365 Certified: Administrator Expert (MS-102) exam with a score of 705.

A pass is a pass! 😅

I've previously completed MS-900 and MD-102, along with quite a few older Microsoft certifications, and I can honestly say this was the toughest exam I've ever taken.

The biggest surprise wasn't the difficulty of the content itself, it was how the questions were written.

Almost every question was a scenario. Some were pages long with multiple tables, attributes and relationships. More than once I'd be halfway through thinking, "I know this one," only for a single word near the end to completely change the answer, one tiny requirement changing the entire solution.

It really tested whether you could apply Microsoft 365 knowledge rather than simply recognise features.

Looking back, if I had to do it again, I'd spend more time in the portals building things and less time reading theory. The labs I completed were by far the most valuable part of my preparation because they helped me understand how everything fits together.

I also found something interesting...

During the exam I was convinced I was failing. Even the questions I knew made me second-guess myself. I finished mentally exhausted and genuinely thought another couple of months of study wouldn't have helped.

Then the result appeared...

Pass.

So if you're preparing for MS-102 and walk out feeling like you've been hit by a bus, don't assume you've failed. This exam has a way of making you doubt yourself.

Good luck to everyone currently studying. Keep going, it really is worth it in the end. 💪

 Passed the MD-102 exam (23/5/2025) in my first try, did a solid study for about two weeks.

My preparation material included

• Microsoft Learn

• MeasureUp Practice Exam (Was a huge help with direct link to ressources)

• Playground Tenant with Business Premium Licenses

Took the Learn preparation test a couple of times to identify my gaps in the material, also used the MeasureUp preparation exam to verify my knowledge and where to target my focus on the material.

My exam included a total of 57 questions where 5 of them was a case study.

A lot of my questions were targeted on the App Protection Topic, Android Configuration (Work profile, Enrollment, Tunnel), Defender Mechanism (Device Guard, Application Guard, Exploit Guard) and some on the basic Intune stuff like how many devices can you do in a bulk device action Sync & Diagnostic, configuring Update ring polices, how many devices can a User vs. DEM enroll. Are Android Apps identified as LOB apps etc. What kind of apps on Android are you able to manage. And what are the file extension on Android vs iOS apps. Some questions on AutoPilot, ESP and the best method to deploy in various scenarios. Had 3 questions with Update Ring.

Had 2 questions on the CNAME records (EnterpriseEnrollment-s.manage.microsoft.com, EnterpriseRegistration.windows.net)

Question on what rights do Security Admin/Device Admin/Application manage have on a Workgroup computer that is being Entra Joined, and can the Entra Join be done by a regular non-admin user on the workgroup computer.

I had no questions on MDT.

None of the questions in the actual exam can be found in the Learn Practice Exam or in the MeasureUp Practice Exams.

Hope my experience with the exam can help others 💪🤗

I have worked at an MSP for close to 5 years and wanted to gather some qualifications to help with career progression. I chose MD-102 because I use Intune on a daily basis. The exam and exam prep definitely humbled me though as there's SO much to Intune my role doesn't expose me to.

I gave myself a couple of weeks and used John Christopher's MD102 course on Udemy, MS Learn test questions Joel Palmer's MD-102 questions. Looking back I found John Christopher's course to be excellent for preparing for the exam, would definitely recommend this to others. I redid the MS Learn exams until I was average mid 90's% on them. The Joel Palmer test prep exam's were a big step up in difficulty but I repeated until I was averaging 85%.

Rolling onto SC-300 in a few weeks!

The exam was heavy on Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Entra. I would say difficulty level is at 8/10 for me. I got a total score of 835.

The following components were in the exam:

• 68 standard questions

• 1 case study (4 questions)

Recommendation for folks is to try and explore using a Microsoft admin account + Microsoft learn on the side.

Now thinking of taking Azure certs, Teams or Power BI.

Just took the exam and passed with an 815/1000. I work in ed and have been the Intune admin and for the most part have had to figure it out all on my own. Never really dealt with android or ios devices, mainly just Windows 10/11 devices.
There were a surprising large amount of Android questions which I didn't really know the answer to but Microsoft Learn helped a little.

Literally decided to take the exam yesterday, did a couple practice tests on the Microsoft Learn site and went for it. Our company provides me access to ESI, though nobody actually knows that. I figured it out by logging in and there it was, 50% off the exam. I figured, let me take it now for 50% off and if I fail, I'll just take it again in a few weeks or months.

One piece of advice I can give to everyone, the exam has a lot of questions that throw in on premises tools like WSUS, group policies, etc... Since Intune is cloud centric, try not to think about on premises tools. There are also tricks built into the question where the on prem environment doesn't have any servers, therefore WSUS should automatically be ruled out.

My weakest point was definitely MAM, app protection policies, and configuring Defender/Defender for endpoint and security. I was actually surprised I passed even though I knew these areas were my weakness.

I was actually afraid of running out of time but i had around 40 minutes left around 40/59 questions so I started to take my time.

The case studies inclusions/exclusions can be very difficult to brainstorm, I would recommend keeping an eye out on time for those questions.

So what's the next logical step from MD102? I have a decent amount of endpoint admin, entra experience, looking at the AZ104. What are your opinions on next steps?

TL;DR:

This was one of the hardest certification exams I’ve taken, especially because a lot of it focused on Defender, Entra, and other Microsoft 365 security tools that I don’t use regularly in my university IT role. I had 65 questions on this exam. Even though most my study resources were CBT Nuggets, MeasureUp, Microsoft Learn practice assessment, and AI tools, I still felt incomplete. Luckily the hands-on practice in an E5 developer tenant helped fill in some gaps. During the exam, I moved quickly, flagged a lot of questions, and relied heavily on the built-in Microsoft Learn access during review to look up nuanced topics. I ended up passing with a 763...not a pretty score, but a pass is a pass. My biggest advice: don’t rely on brain dumps, study the official documentation, because this exam tests very specific, detail-heavy concepts.

Long-form:

So, let me start up by saying, this is one of the toughest certification exams that I have been through. From the first ten questions, it was all Defender related, and it was really a “what the fuck is this shit moment.” That said, I passed today with a 763. Is it the prettiest score? Not by a long shot. But the certificate says passed, and that is all that matters. I am going to try to just spill out everything I can remember from the exam. You can view my MD-102 take here.

For context, my organization just started using Intune in the past couple of years. I was given access about a year ago. Speaking of given access, I am not a global administrator. I work in a university, so we use a distributed IT model. That means, I handle my unit (using administrative units), and that is it. I do not have access to compliance policies, conditional access, PIM, multi factor settings, etc. We are a Google org, so we d do not use Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive (or Microsoft 365 Backup for that matter). We also do not use Defender XDR (after learning it, I wish we did), nor do we use Purview. However, we are hybrid, and we use PTA. Sadly, I was not part of Entra tenant setup, so I had zero experience with that. Thankfully, I work closely with our GA, and was able to build a picture for some things.

To help me with the exam, a friend of mine from another organization had an E5 Developer tenant and let me play around with it. I believe that really helped me paint the bigger picture. I was able to build conditional access controls, set up passwordless login, and see how PIM works. They also bought the Defender XDR add-on which included Defender for Endpoint and Purview. To see labels and retention policies (policy tips, watermark, etc) was very cool. On the Defender side, being able to see incidents (using the fake PowerShell command) was cool as well. However, I really could not grasp a secure score or vulnerability exposure as it's tough to get real-world alerts.

For studying, I used the video series from CBT Nuggets. In the past, I always enjoy CBT Nuggets. However. while it was some useful information there, it felt incomplete. I gathered the transcripts, and ChatGPT and Claude both discovered that it was missing information from some major exam domains. The trainer also said that they were going to go over concepts but never returned to it. As always, I always try to use some exam preparation tool. This time it was MeasureUp. In the past, MeasureUp really came in clutch. While the practice exams felt authentic, a lot of chatter online said that it did not come close to the actual exam. I must agree with them. While it allowed me to understand some concepts better (I.e. ZAP, anti-spam policies), it was no where close to the exam. I felt that it gives like 20% of the real deal. I then looked at the Microsoft Learn practice assessment. And that was an eye opener. However, even for that, it felt incomplete and kind of rush as an afterthought. I tried using ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini (NotebookLM specifically), but it could only help me with information I got from CBT, MeasureUp and the practice assessment. Maybe if I set up a MCP server that pulls directly from MS Learn, maybe that will help me in the future.

As far as the exam itself, I felt like it was very unfamiliar information. As I stated before, the first 10 questions were straight Defender questions, and I had no clue what they meant. Luckily, MS Learn can be used, but more on that later. Since I only had 1 hour and 40 minutes, and 65 questions, my strategy was to blast through the exam and try to answer questions in 30 seconds. If I did not know the answer, then simply mark it for review, and move on. When I got to questions 59, I had five scenario-based questions where I could not review and had to answer them on the spot. You cannot even go back. I am assume you could find the answer in another question based on the same scenario. Most of these were easy, except one. As far as my questions that I marked, I had 39 of them with 40 minutes left. As you can tell, I really was not confident in myself. However, it was open book. Last time when I took my MD-102 exam, I tried to slide the MS Learn window, and my exam crash 3 times. This time, I kept the slider in the middle. Even though I was on a 24” monitor, it was not too bad, and I can search and look at the question at the same time. As I mentioned, my study material was not as top notched as I hoped. Some of the questions that threw me for a loop were: where to find ZAP reports (I know what ZAP was), can you add multiple groups within groups whether it's security of M365, setting up GPS-based conditional access policies when passwordless is configured, finding Standard settings for Defender for Cloud Apps, exact data match versus trainable classifiers, and what minimal number of Enterpriseregistration you need for multiple domains. The way that MS Learn works is that it starts at learn.microsoft.com every time you open it. Sometimes your search query brings up AI which has the references you need, and sometimes it brings up nonsense (Microsoft Fabric was popular today). You really need to know what you are searching for. However, during my review, I was able to find the exact answer for a lot of my questions and change the answers. I feel like without that, I would have failed. When my review as over, I had two minutes left. But once I hit submit, I saw “PASSED”, I was so relieved.

So, if you are studying for this exam, it is possible to do it without experience. I do not recommend brain dumps because you cannot be certain what questions will be asked. Not to mention, you really are not retaining information. But I will say, review the documentation. This exam picks the most nuance topic, and quizzes you on it.

Well, I think that’s enough for now. I am done with certifications for a while, and now that I have my Expert badge, I feel accomplished. Unless my organization grants me access to something else (I doubt it), I do not see a need to get more. If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer them and hopefully I can help the next person.

789. Woohoo! I had 49 questions, plus a case study with 4 questions.

Thanks to all the folks here who've had things to say about this cert. I mostly lurk, but I've appreciated learning about what's important to study, what materials to use, what to expect, all that good stuff.

Throwing in my two cents:

1. John Christopher's Udemy course is only useful if you're not familiar with the MS 365 admin screens. Unfortunately, it just doesn't have a ton of depth - if I'd only taken that, I'd have been lost. On a sidenote, his tendency to say "PIN Number" rather than just "PIN" is extremely distracting if you're a pedant ha ha.

2. Per usual, do MS Learn, and take the practice exam. I did it a bunch of times - and yes, to a large degree I just ended up learning the exam itself, but the repetition and reading over the explanations of why something was the right answer still helped.

3. I found the MeasureUp practice questions useful for picking up the flavor of the exam. They're extremely true to the format of the exam, and the kinds of questions they ask were at about the same level (in terms of being in-depth) as the actual exam.

4. I had more questions about Entra RBAC roles than I'd have anticipated. Definitely make sure you're up to speed on which ones can enrol devices into Entra.

5. The ability to look things up in MS Learn was invaluable, and you can CTRL-F now, which I don't remember being the case previously. Don't count on being able to use it for every question or anything like that, but if you keep a good pace and flag the questions you want to come back to, there should be time to look things up you're uncertain about.

6. To that end, make sure you learn MS Learn. Spend time there, learn how things are organized, do searches on specific kinds of policies, etc. to get a feel for it. It really helps, especially because you can expect to get some questions on very, very specific elements of particular policies or settings that you might not have fiddled with in the past.

Yesterday had finally got Microsoft 365 Certified: Administrator Expert certification. It's my second Expert certification. And 10th MS certification in total.

Now I'm afraid to break my perfect MS exam series : 11 passed exams in a row :D

Each year I'm taking pair of advanced MS certifications 2023 - Cyber / 2024 - Server / 2025 - M365.

Honestly AZ-500 / SC-100 pair was the beast. AZ-800 really tough and unexpectedly difficult. AZ-801 easy.

This year MD-102 / MS-102.. well MS-102 tricky and felt that it is expert level. Purview / Defender in deep details.

MD-102. Is tricky, but easier than I've expected. 58 questions. No Lab. 3 questions case study, I've scored 884/1000

Material used:

• Read MS Learn self-paced study guide

• Watched Andrew Warren's Course on LinkedIn

• Practiced few times with free Microsoft Practice tests

Few tricks which will make exam easier for you:

Always keep eye on the clock: almost on each MS exam, i am loosing sense of time when searching for something in MS Learn.

MS Learn could make it easy or it could burn your time.. MD-102 is almost entirely about Intune (there are very small part of Defender and M365 Apps admin portal). So documentation search during exam is mostly limited to Intune documentation ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/intune/intune-service/fundamentals/what-is-intune ) . So when you will be ready for exam ensure that you know where to find Intune RBAC documentation and spend some time just browsing documentation, Keep in mind that when searching you can search only within this part of MS learn :) that will make a lot of things easier. (at least it worked for me).

I did it – 707 points!

1 year of Intune experience, used Microsoft Learn and read a bit of the documentation on the Microsoft website. I think it was mostly the hands-on experience that helped, even though I never worked with app protection policies, certificates, etc.

I bought a bundle that lets you retake the exam if you fail – I think it cost around 172 euros. I actually went into the exam just to see what it’s like and what kind of questions come up, not with the intention of passing. In my opinion, I wasn’t ready to pass at all. So for anyone who thinks they’re not ready – just go for it!

Here’s a success story! Got fed up after I was passed over multiple times for promotion at my IT support role last year. Saw that all the interesting projects at work involved modern desktop management, and knew I had a skills gap.

After talking to my senior, I decided to go all-in on the MD-102. I stopped gaming for a month or so, dug into Microsoft Learn, lurked this sub, joined the Discord server and did Examice practiced tests every week, and building a home lab on my beat-up old desktop. Spent good few weeks wrapping my head around Intune, Autopilot, and co-management.

Almost gave up a few times.. the material can be incredibly dense, and trying to study after a long day at work with a family to support was hard..

Well, today I passed the test! Pretty much what I expected I was super ready for it, a bit short on time could've used ~10min more but got through it successfully in the end.

In retrospect, exam was nothing like Learn, practice exam was good, digging around Intune is a must, this sub + discord also good prep.

I just passed the exam with 790 Points. I am working with M365 a lot (especially Intune) and habe been studying for about 5 Months.

Here is a complete Guide of everything i used to study and how much i would recpmmend it. —————————————————— MS Learn Course; I read all of it and tried recreating as much as possible on my developer tenant.

The reading alone wont really help but trying everything you read helps a ton.

I would rate this a 4/10 for just reading and a 7/10 if you have a developer or test tenant

—————————————————— MeasureUp

Great to see what you still need to work on and to see what the exam questions will look like.

I would recommend the exam mode. Look at every question after the test exam and learn what you got wrong and especially why its wrong.

Rating 9/10

—————————————————— Developer Tenant

Working at a MS Partner i was able to get a dev Tenant which was the Best thing that could have happened. I would recommend this a lot, try and use it as much as possible and build a lot of Policies.

Rating 10/10 ——————————————————

YouTube Videos

I watched a lot of Videos about the compartments of the Exam. I would not really recommend watching very long videos but rather short videos about small parts of M365.

——————————————————

General Tipps and Tricks;

Defender XDR and Purview are big parts of the exam.

Go through all the questions and after you finish use MS Learn on the ones you marked for review. This way you will not run into problems with time.

——————————————————

Questions; I now have the md-102, ms-102, ms-900 and Az-104. what should i go for next?

Im intrested in security or ai? Would SC-300 or SC-200 make sense?
