About the 70-417 exam

This exam is the upgrade path to earning the new MCSA Windows Server 2012 certification. It’s a combination of the core exams (70-410, 70-411 and 70-412). Before taking the exam, you should be proficient in all of the subject areas including installation, configuration, administration and the more advanced side of Windows Server 2012.
