I just updated the MD-100 guide, which really didn’t need many changes at all, but this one definitely needed a few. There have been some changes in the weightings of the different sections, the objectives have been reorganised, as well as some name changes that need to be factored in.
While limited Configuration Manager exposure was required in the original version of the exam, there’s a bit more required now because Desktop Analytics (DA) has replaced Windows Analytics (WA) in the exam, but DA can’t work standalone like WA could, so make sure you have set up the Windows and Office Deployment Lab Kit.
