Pass Rate
98% of our AZ-900 candidates pass on first attempt.
The global AZ-900 first-attempt rate is around 78%. Our 98% comes from 30 days of Azure sandbox access, three timed mocks, and an instructor who has run two MY government cloud migrations across the past 4 years.
Most candidates underestimate the breadth of services. They study compute deeply and miss governance, billing and SLAs entirely.
Nexperts: 98%
We force every service to memory through the sandbox. We hard-gate on a clearance mock at 87%.
