I scored 800 out of 1000. You only need 700 to pass. The test was HARD. There were a few topics I was not expecting and used the process of elimination and flat out guessing to answer. I have 6+ years experience in Power BI, most of which has involved managing a team of developers and most recently included role of architecting solutions in Fabric. Literally, learning on the job as I went. I had taken most of the MS Learn items that were part of the Ignite challenge earlier this summer, as well as a large portion of the learning path associated with this exam. My hands on development experience definitely helped me with the sql, dax, m code, power query, semantic modeling, and other core Power BI questions. The 6.5 hour video on this community really helped me figure out my areas of deficiency that were truly just lack of experience. Optimization was a big topic on the exam. I learned about OPTIMIZE and VACUUM from the video. I discovered I had a HUGE gap in knowledge of managing XMLA endpoints and access that I needed to brush up on. I highly recommend the Learn modules on lakehouses (there are a lot of question about them), endpoints, security, and optimization if you've experience has mostly been in development and not as much about governance or architecture planning. Anyway. I'm thankful to have found the video here because I would not have passed without watching it. I would not have had any idea the left of detail I had to know for the exam in some areas. I hope to stick around and be active in the community. fabric is ever-changing and I'm excited to be connected with people that can learn and grow together.

Hi everyone, things have gone fast since I launched this community back in January 2024!! I still remember my proud post when we reached 50 members (see below). Well, recently we crossed a previously unimaginable milestone of 5k members. Thank you to every one of you that chooses to spend your time here learning Fabric and engaging with the community. So far, we have had over 1200 conversations/ threads about Microsoft Fabric (the search bar contains a wealth of information!). I hope it has helped you learn Microsoft Fabric. The best thing is that this is just the start, I will continue to invest in this community because I can see it's making (at least a small) difference. But a community of this size is difficult to manage alone (especially as now I spend a lot of time in Fabric Dojo too). As such, I'm delighted to announce that I've brought on board Maleek - @Mubaraq Abdulmaleek to support yourselves (and me!) around the community. Maleek is hugely passionate about Fabric (he was one of the first members of this community back in January!), DP-600 certified and eager to learn as much as possible. He'll help new members get onboarded, help members find stuff (course content/ previous answers to community questions), and generally help make sure you have a great experience here. Great to have you here, Maleek! Soon, I'll share what I have planned for this community in 2025 and beyond. Thank you so much for being a part of this community we're building!
