This simulator works like the real exam. The questions use the same formats Microsoft uses (drop-down lists, drag and drop, build lists, Yes/No grids, scenario series, and case studies), so the first time you meet them is not on exam day.
Choose Exam mode to answer everything and see your score at the end, or Practice mode to check each answer as you go. Questions and answer options are shuffled on every attempt. Miss one, and the review explains why the right answer is right and links to the Microsoft Learn pages that support it.
Exam simulator
109 fact-checked questions in 8 question formats, including case studies, shuffled on every attempt. Scored 0–1000 the way the real exam reports, with 700 to pass.
Nothing is sent anywhere and nothing is stored. Reloading the page ends the attempt. Case study questions appear together at the end, as on the real exam.
By domain
Each correct selection earns one point, as on the real exam. The real exam uses a scaled score, so this 0–1000 figure is a proportional approximation: a guide, not a prediction.
Fact-checked against current documentation#
Every question and answer has been fact-checked against current Microsoft Learn documentation and mapped to a skill in the official AI-200 study guide.
Each explanation in the review links to the pages that support it, so you can confirm the answer and read further. The same questions, answers, and explanations are in the PDF download above. Company names in the scenarios and case studies are fictitious.
How the scoring works#
Microsoft reports AI-200 on a scaled score from 1 to 1000, and 700 passes. On interactive questions, Microsoft’s own instructions say “Each correct selection is worth one point.” The simulator scores the same way:
- A drop-down, drag-and-drop, or Yes/No question earns one point for each part you get right.
- A “choose two” question earns a point for each correct choice.
- A build list earns a point for each action in its correct position.
Your total is then mapped proportionally onto 0 to 1000. The real exam weights questions in ways Microsoft does not publish, so treat the number as a guide to readiness, not a prediction of your score. The results screen also shows your score in each domain, so you know where to study next.
Practicing under time pressure#
The timer is off by default. Tick Add a 120-minute timer before you start to match the real exam’s duration. The countdown turns amber with ten minutes left and red in the final minute, and at zero the exam submits itself with whatever you have answered.
How the question formats work here#
- Drag and drop: drag an answer choice onto a target, or select a choice and then select a target (this also works on touch screens and with the keyboard). Remove a placement with the × on the target.
- Build list: select an action, then use the arrow buttons to move it into the answer area and up or down. You can also drag actions, or double-click to move one across.
- Scenario series: as on the real exam, once you move past a question in a series you cannot go back to it.
- Case studies: the case study stays beside its questions. Use the tabs to switch between its sections. Case study questions appear together at the end of the exam, as they do on the real one.
Before you take the real exam#
A practice exam is a diagnostic, not a syllabus. Passing this comfortably means you know these questions, which is not the same as knowing the material, and the real exam draws from the whole study guide.
When a question surprises you, read the explanation and the linked documentation rather than memorizing the answer:
- The four exam domains for the skills each one covers and the official training
- Hands-on exercises for the parts that only stick once you have done them
- Resources for the study guide, the exam sandbox, and registration
