Where candidates lose points
Self-reported, from candidate write-ups. Your own Miss list will disagree with this one, and it is the one that counts.
- 01
Azure networking
One failure report said the questions were almost entirely containers and networking. On-prem concepts do not map across.
- 02
Containers
Container Instances against Container Apps against AKS, and how each scales. Named alongside networking in failure reports.
- 03
ARM templates and Bicep
Reports say the exam asks when to use them, not deep template syntax. Preparation often misses that framing.
- 04
Scenario wording
Failure posts say the real question style and edge cases felt unlike the practice materials they used.
- 05
Skipping Microsoft Learn
One repeat-failure post blamed not working through the Microsoft Learn modules. Video courses alone left gaps.
Reported preparation ranges from about 2 months down to 15 days, on Microsoft Learn modules, practice exams and hands-on labs. Those are community figures: Microsoft publishes no recommended duration.

Questions about AZ-104
- How many questions are on the AZ-104 exam?
- 40 to 60, usually including one or two case studies. Microsoft does not publish a fixed count.
- What is the AZ-104 passing score?
- 700 out of 1000. Microsoft scales the score, so it is not a percentage of questions right.
- How long is the AZ-104 exam?
- Microsoft Learn allows 100 minutes for the assessment. Some third-party blogs cite about 120 minutes for the whole appointment.
- Can I drill my own AZ-104 notes instead of a question bank?
- Yes. That is what this is. Upload your study guide as a text PDF and the questions are written from its pages.
- Does the free drill need a card?
- No. A free account, one upload, 10 questions, your score and your missed topics. No card.
- Will it read a scanned PDF?
- No. We need a text layer. A scan is refused before anything is charged, and the upload returns.
