Thanks for the tips! I'm a 15 year old that came back from winter break and all of a sudden my school slapped that test on our faces, in each practice I was doing horrible, and I really started to doubt myself, this helped a little, thank you!

Hey Mike - I think your videos and sharing your experience is better than being in the classroom. I've never had to take an exam in MSO Ever since it's inception in the military I had to learn it and teach others so this is a new experience for me to have to show by exam what I know. Thanks for all your hard work and guidance.

Wow! Your tips actually helped with my mos exam and I finished with 800 points. Thank you!

This is great information. I would also add that the current test (at least the MS Office 365 test) allows you, with a single click, to copy to the clipboard any text between quotes ("") included as part of the question that is required on the exercises. Do not type the text manually, first because of the possibility of error and second, because you could mistakenly include the quotes which will invalidate the answer, even if you type the text correctly. I had at least three of these tasks and I didn't catch my mistake until the third one, so I had to go back and review all my projects to correct the mistakes. Time is very limited on the MOS tests.

I wasted time on the overview!!! It was my first time testing so anxiety hit me for a bit! I didn’t complete every lesson due to the 50 minute timer which I thought was 60!! BUT, Thankfully passed my Excel 2016 exam :) Your videos were of great help as well.. Thank you! 🙏🏻☺️

Hi Mike: Watched this YouTube and it was great. I still was really lost in the MOS Word 2019 O365 Specialist EXPERT exam this morning even after watching the video. I know I will be able to pass this exam but I was unprepared for the format. I think it is hard to explain until you are actually in there. I am trying to find more information and practice for the Specialist EXPERT exam (MO101) and would appreciate any direction.

My test is this coming up Friday. So very nervous about it but excited to try it out. Thank you!

[milliet]

Cool video! My question is, I've been out of work for 10+ years due to...reasons. :-) I'm handy on the computer overall, but haven't touched much of MS for quite a while. Do you think if I managed to earn this MOS cert that admin jobs would be easier to obtain? Not in the sense where sure, anything is better than nothing type of meaning, but more like, "oh hey, this guy is a 2019 MOS?! Hells YEAH!!! He's exactly what we're looking for!" type thing. Lastly, from zero to hero what would be your ballpark guess for the length of time it would take for a somewhat competent user to earn a 2019 MOS?
