The very shallow introduction basically stays at the popular science level suitable for junior high school students to read. It doesn't mean much to finish.

It is just an overview. It does not go deep enough to be of any practical use.

The material is out of date. Within two days of passing this course I took the MS900 practice exam only to fail miserably. The practice exam included questions I was totally unprepared for and introduced terms and MS Office products that I was completely unfamiliar with. 11/20/25

Frankly, it is an incomplete, insufficient, irregular, and not properly organized course. Unfortunately, it is one of the worst courses I have ever applied for.
