Your Microsoft Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure Questions, Answered

How much does the AZ-800 exam cost, and what score is required to pass?

Bear in mind that an unsuccessful attempt is not discounted the second time around — a retake is charged at the full fee again. That is why experienced candidates test themselves with the 342 practice questions from PracticeTorrent until their results are consistently strong before spending money on the real thing.
