The 070-462 exam includes 40–60 questions and allows 120 minutes. Before test day, divide the available time by the number of questions in a timed practice set to establish a steady per-question pace. If a difficult item starts consuming too much time, mark it for review and move forward instead of losing momentum. A full timed practice session can help you decide when to move on, when to return, and how much buffer to reserve for a final check.

The passing score for 070-462 is 700 (on a scale of 100–1000), and the official exam fee is USD 165 (approx.). Because a retake requires paying the exam fee again, use timed practice results as a readiness check before scheduling your next attempt. If your performance remains inconsistent, continue reviewing weak domains and repeat a timed session before booking the exam.
