My feedback after the exam

[Venkat Subramani]

I would say many of the questions were in line with what I saw here. However the cases studies were tougher. If we have to AD forest on Prem and one of them was for strictly onPrem R&D resources not migrating to Azure, would you move that AD to Azure.

I was not sure which scalable Azure sql db supports seconds billing.

Hi Venkat,

Serverless compute tier for Azure SQL Database bills for the amount of compute used per second.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

I am scheduled to take the AZ-305 Exam Friday, February 27th. I crush it on the TD practice tests and also the MS Learn practice tests. I watch videos and study what I can. Not too much lab work at all though. I did get AWS certs some years ago.

Hi Michael,

That’s awesome! Sounds like you’re in a really strong position going into Friday! If you’re consistently scoring well on both TD and Microsoft Learn practice tests, that’s a great indicator that you understand the concepts and exam style.

For AZ-305, focus on:

• Architecture design trade-offs (cost, performance, security, reliability)

• Identity (Entra ID), governance, and hybrid scenarios

• Networking design (VNet, private endpoints, DNS, connectivity)

• Data storage choices and high availability strategies

Deep hands-on labs aren’t strictly required for AZ-305 since it’s more design-focused, but make sure you’re comfortable choosing the best solution among several valid options.

At this point, I’d recommend light review, rest well, and avoid cramming. Go in confident, you’ve clearly put in the work.

Wishing you the best of luck on Friday—you’ve got this!
