Doubt about 70-417 to pass exam

fibercool

I know before it was compulsory to pass all 3 sections of the exam (410-411-412) but i think recently they changed this, could anyone confirm?

I cant find where it says that you need to pass all 3 sections in https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/exam-70-417.aspx

Thanks

crap your right, i see 417 now and not 412. I was studying for the 412 for months. I think from others in the past you can email them to try to take the 412, im about to do that now and see

if you look at your Your benefits & Exams on the microsoft dashboard, you will see 70-417 has been put there and 7-412 has been taken out.

The requirements for MCSA: Server 2012 haven't changed. You still need to pass 70-410, 70-411, 70-412.

The OP is asking about taking the 70-417, which upgrades a previous MCSA to MCSA: Server 2012. On upgrade exams, you used to have to pass each section to move onto the next section. I believe this requirement has been removed, but I don't have a link saying that.

Interesting. I certainly hope it has. I know the 70-743 has been structured like that since the beginning, but I was under the impression that you still had to pass the individual sections for 417.

Thanks srocky26 for the clarification, english is not my native language and i think i have not explained myself so well.

I'm not saying that it has changed, but I thought I read somewhere that it had changed. I can't find any supported evidence, so don't take my word on that.

According to this article this doesn't apply to the 70-417 exam just new upgrade exams starting with 70-743.
