GH-900 Exam Essentials: A Quick FAQ for Candidates

The GH-900 exam is the official assessment for the Microsoft GitHub Foundations certification offered by Microsoft. It checks whether you can apply the knowledge areas in the exam objectives to practical situations, and passing it earns a credential that employers across the industry recognize. For professionals who feel stuck in their current role, it is often the most concrete next step available.

No prerequisites required. Basic understanding of Git and GitHub is recommended.

The official outline for the GH-900 exam highlights these domains:

  • Collaboration Features (20%)
  • Privacy, Security, and Administration (10-15%)
  • Introduction to Git and GitHub (25%)

Weighting your study time toward the heavier domains first is a sensible strategy, and the Microsoft GitHub Foundations practice questions at RealVCE follow the same objective structure.

The GH-900 exam gives you 100 minutes minutes to answer 40-60 questions. That pace leaves little room for hesitation, which is why rehearsing under a timer — for example with the online test engine at RealVCE, where you can set the session length just like the real test — is such a useful habit.

The online test engine is exclusive to RealVCE and runs on any electronic device — phone, tablet, or computer — with no installation barriers. It recreates the atmosphere of the real GH-900 exam: you set the test time the way it will be on exam day, work through the Microsoft GitHub Foundations practice questions under that pressure, and at the end the engine marks the questions you got wrong and reminds you to practice them again next time. Over a few sessions, that loop turns weak areas into reliable ones.

To pass the GH-900 exam you need a score of 700, and the registration fee is $99 USD. Since each attempt costs the full fee, arriving over-prepared is cheaper than arriving under-prepared — timed mock sessions and repeated review of missed questions are the usual ways candidates close that gap.

Right after payment you get instant access to the GH-900 exam product — 160 practice questions for the Microsoft GitHub Foundations exam with expert-verified answers — and the download link is also emailed to you automatically, typically within a minute. Your purchase includes 365 days of free updates; our team checks for exam changes daily, and when a new version is released the system sends it straight to your mailbox. A 50% renewal discount applies if you extend updates beyond the first year, and payment by Credit Card is handled through a secure checkout.
