About the exam
From the vendor’s own pages.
A score of 700 or greater is required to pass. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/resources/study-guides/ai-901)
Scores are reported on a scale of 1 to 1,000, and because the score is scaled, a passing score of 700 may not equal 70% of the points. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/exam-scoring-reports)
Microsoft states this for technical exams in general, not for AI-901 specifically.
Fundamentals exams: 45 minutes of exam time and 65 minutes of seat time. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/support/exam-duration-exam-experience)
Microsoft gives this for Fundamentals exams in general, not for AI-901 specifically.
Most Microsoft Certification exams typically contain between 40-60 questions; however, the number can vary depending on the exam. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/support/exam-duration-exam-experience)
This is general, and the AI-901 count is not published.
Microsoft does not identify specific exam formats or question types before the exam. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/support/exam-duration-exam-experience)
Microsoft Learn is not available during Fundamentals exams. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/support/exam-duration-exam-experience)
Fundamentals certifications do not expire. (Read the source: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/renew-your-microsoft-certification)
