Hi All,

Greetings for the day 🙂 LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL 🙂

Recently in second week of this month I passed the exam AZ – 900 – Microsoft Azure Fundamentals

Generally I am not keen or not big fan of certifications but then set resolution for new year to learn Azure in details and exams 🙂

So started preparing for my first Azure exam – Exam AZ-900: Microsoft Azure Fundamentals. Its one month preparation

Exam :

• I have scheduled virtual exam from my home office
• Make sure during exam, nobody enters in room
• Nothing is there on your desk except ID proof
• I have total around 36 questions
• Also one more important point is – survey which Microsoft takes before starting exam – this survey is related to our knowledge about the exam topics. Please make sure we are giving true answers there since I believe exam questions appears based on survey (though not sure 🙂 )
• Question Type :
  • Most of the questions are for – Yes / No answers
• Also please don’t forgot to “Mark a Review” so that after first round we can review the answers

Couple of my friends asked me for study material and so thought to share how I prepared for the exam. What reference / study material I used
