Microsoft Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/2014 Databases (70-464) Practice Exam

I passed. If they expand the hard-tier items, I’d give it a full five. Still recommend it for prep.

I liked that difficulty varies. Easy ones build speed; the hard ones force you to think like the exam writers.

Passed with a comfortable margin. I wouldn’t skip the harder items — those taught the most.

Realistic enough that exam day wasn’t a shock. Knocked one star off for a few outdated-feeling stems.

The practice mode is what sold me — check the answer, read the explanation, move on. Cleared 70-464 without needing a second attempt.

Passed. Tell a friend who’s stuck in tutorial hell to switch to practice questions sooner.

If you’ve read the official guide once, jump straight into this bank. That’s the loop that worked for me.

Took me longer than planned because I kept re-doing wrong answers until they stuck. Worth it — passed first try.

About 98% of what I saw on the real 70-464 lined up with topics I’d practiced. Felt fair, not spooky.

I’m usually skeptical of “exam dumps.” This felt more like guided practice. Cleared 70-464 last month.

Supportive without being cheesy. Just clear write-ups when you miss. Cleared the exam last Friday.

Used the bookmark feature heavily. My “wrong twice” list became the only thing I studied the final two days.

Not flashy, just solid practice. Instant feedback made it easy to fix weak domains before exam day.

Booked 70-464 two days after my last practice run. Confidence was high enough that waiting would have just added anxiety.

After finishing, I could explain answers out loud — good sign I wasn’t just pattern-matching letters.

Used this bank after work for two weeks. Timed a few full runs, reviewed misses, and walked into the real exam less shaky than my last cert.

Mobile-friendly enough for lunch breaks. Those small sessions added up more than I expected.

Helped a lot with pattern recognition. Volume was fine for me; advanced scenarios could go deeper.

Reviewed bookmarked questions the morning of the exam. That last pass over my weak spots was useful.

Passed 70-464. Coverage of the core domains was strong; I wanted a few more obscure edge cases before exam day.

Used this as my primary bank and cleared the exam. UI is simple (good), question count could be higher for heavy topics.

I study better with concrete items than with slide decks. This bank matched how I learn.

Four stars: strong overlap with real exam style, minor wish-list for more cost/architecture tradeoff scenarios.

The overlap people talk about felt real for me — roughly in the 98% ballpark on topics and framing.

Had about a month. Finished the set once, then a second pass on bookmarked misses. That was enough.

Good for last-mile prep if you already know the product. Don’t expect a full course; expect exam practice.

I came from a non-traditional background. Structured practice here made the exam feel learnable.

Passed first try. I’d still skim the official outline once so you know nothing major is missing.

Coworker recommended this after he passed. Same story for me: coverage felt aligned with what showed up on test day.

Useful main drill set. I’d add more timed full-length mocks, but the question quality is solid.

Solid value. I supplemented with the official whitepapers for two weak areas and that filled the gaps.

Scored in the mid-80s on my last practice run, booked the exam that week, and passed. Good calibration tool.

Bought this mainly for the explanations. Memorizing letters never worked for me; understanding the tradeoffs did.

The feedback after each question kept me honest. Easy to fool yourself with “I’ll look it up later.”

I paired this with the vendor docs for anything I didn’t fully understand. Combo worked — first-attempt pass.

Passed 70-464 after using this as my primary drill set. Official docs for gaps, practice for fluency.

Got me through on the first attempt. Four stars only because a handful of explanations felt thinner than the rest.

Short review: good questions, better explanations, passed 70-464. Moving on to the next cert next quarter.

I’m not a natural test-taker. Repetition here reduced the panic factor more than anything else.

For Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201…, this was the closest I found to actual exam pacing and wording.

Quietly effective. No hype in the product, which oddly made me trust the material more.

Had 70-464 on my plate for a promotion. This set kept prep structured when my schedule was messy.

No nonsense. Questions, answers, explanations. That’s what I wanted for Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201….

Used this during a busy on-call rotation — 20 questions when I could. Still cleared 70-464.

Recommended it in our study Slack. Three of us sat 70-464 this quarter; all passed after using this set.

Not every question is perfect, but the set as a whole prepared me well. First-try pass.

Sat the exam in a testing center; nothing on the screen felt alien. Practice here had covered the style.

Passed yesterday. The “same questions” feel people mention is more about patterns than literal copies — still very helpful.

Cleared 70-464. Good explanations overall — a small number were vague about why the distractor failed.

Cleared it. Wish I’d found this before wasting money on a video course that barely touched the exam style.

Clearer than the free PDFs floating around. Explanations actually cite the reasoning instead of just restating the answer.

Scored lower on early practice runs than I liked. Kept going; the curve bent up before exam week.

Real exam felt like a continuation of practice, not a surprise quiz. That’s rare with prep materials.

Passed Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201…. Several questions on the live test used the same decision patterns I had already practiced here.

Cleared 70-464 after bouncing off another site’s poorly written questions. Quality of stems matters.

I failed a different cert last year from under-preparing. Didn’t make that mistake here — finished the set, then sat.

Sat 70-464 last Tuesday and passed. I had been grinding the scenario items here for about 10 days — the wording felt familiar without being a copy-paste dump.

Explanations are concise — not essay-length walls of text. Easy to revise on a commute.

Realistic stems, useful notes, no spammy upsells inside the practice UI. Appreciated the focus.

I tracked domains in a spreadsheet while practicing. Once every column was green, I booked the test.

Used full-length timed sessions twice. Time management was my issue; those drills fixed it before 70-464.

Short sessions beat marathon cramming for me. I did 25–40 questions a night and finished the bank before booking the exam.

I was weak on the longer case-style items. Drilling those here closed the gap; scored comfortably over the cut.

Cleared Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201…. A couple topics felt light compared to what showed up, though overall prep was good.

Solid coverage of the domains I cared about. A couple niche topics were light, but core material was strong.

What helped most was reading every “why this is wrong” note. I kept missing distractors until those clicked, then cleared 70-464 on the first attempt.

The distractors here are sneaky in a good way. Taught me to read the last sentence of each stem carefully.

Bought access, finished ~70% of the bank, then focused on misses. That was my whole study plan.

I work in a related role already, so I needed exam-style practice more than theory. This hit that need.

I’m mid-career and rusty at multiple-choice. This got me back into the rhythm without wasting evenings.

Marked a bunch of questions, then filtered to those only. Fixed three weak areas in a weekend and sat the exam Monday.

Felt realistic without claiming to be a brain dump. That’s the balance I look for in prep tools.

Passed on attempt one. Biggest win was learning which options look right but fail a constraint in the stem.

Practice questions alone won’t replace experience, but for Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201… they sharpened how I approach multiple-choice.

Did one domain at a time until accuracy stayed above ~80%, then mixed sets. Passed Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012/201….
