Hi everybody,
next week i'm gonna have the 70-290 with prometric..
I've searched the net about how much time it will be available to me to complete the 45 questions, but i got different answers..
some tells 90, some 120, others says 180
Also i got different answers about the min score to pass the exam.. some passed it with 700, but it seem strange to me...
all test-sim i tryed put the minimun at 87, so i suppose it is 870

Please let me know...

Thank a lot!

I took it with prometrics too and the allocated time was 2 hours (120 minutes). Can`t remember the score and I'm not at home to check.

Minimum score is 700, time should be about 2 hours.

most sim tests aim to make you score at least 80% so when you go into the real test your chances of passing are better :)
2 hours and 700 pts to pass

True, this is generally referred to as the "10% Choke Factor" as there is usually much more pressure on you during the "Real" exam -vs- the practice exam where there is no ($125) penalty for failure. Although MS is offering one free redo per exam these days (not that one should need it...:)).

@ Doctor#99 Good Luck on the Exam!
