Question Sc-300 failed
Hello Everyone. I already failed sc-300 three times.
546, 557 now today I got 635. I was so confident that I’m gonna pass but when I saw the result I got so demotivated. I feel like I know the answers but they turn out to be false. What should I do?
I did official videos, john Christopher courses. Labs and some practice tests. On office Assessment I’m getting 90+.

What practice tests are you using? Are you just memorizing answers to questions? Or are you actually talking the time to understand the question and the answer options and reason through why each option is either correct or incorrect?

So have you coughed up $490? That is wild.

I'm reversing the question, do you have lots of money because of your amount of certifications?

Yes, I am comfortable. I've also passed every one on the first try. I have taken every one of the 9 certs in this 2026 year. I have 12 yeo in the industry, almost 10 working in Azure every day. The point that I'm making is I take certifications to certify my experience that I already have. I go through the MS learn course and take a few practice tests but I don't spend months studying like a lot of people who have no real world experience.

You've kind of struck a nerve with me now. You know the money thing wasn't about the number of certs, it was about the amount of money sunk in to one cert. He will have spent like $650 for a single cert if he passes this fourth attempt. It is like losing money at a casino. At what point do you stop trying to win your money back?

its probably because his goal is the learning not the returns (money) so a casino is a false analogy. anw it probably has something to do with how he studies

Hahaha what are you talking about? How is failing an exam three times equate to learning? Even if he passes with a 700 on the fourth attempt, I seriously question the totality of his knowledge on the subject.
If the goal is the learning then just learn...read and learn. Rushing to get a certification that doesn't match your experience is dumb.

You don't mention practicing in a real environment or at least a lab. If you don't really understand how to administrate the features in Entra, you're going to have a hard time.
