Answering here rather than privately, because then more people can benefit...

You're not going to find a list of what material uses what question types. It's not even consistent, that can and will change as MS adds new questions and new question types to their exams. Plus any discussion of exam contents is in violation of the NDA. Best thing is to know the material well.

With the 'build up an answer' type. When you get those, ignore the answers. Take the scratch paper/board that the exam centre provided and write out a solution to the question. Once you've written out a piece of code that will do what is asked, then look at the snippets given and arrange them to match what you've already got.

Hi

For those avoiding brain dumps (I hope everyone! ;) and looking for practice tests which can help you get used to style of Microsoft Exams so you can prepare better I have very good news.

We have decided to create a test has similar style to Microsoft questions. The differences are:
1) It has similar style questions to Microsoft + those that Microsoft doesn't have yet (or have on different exams)
2) Similar level but slightly more difficult as we provide answer in a way that guessing is minimized so normally you will get 10-20% less comparing to exam where educated guesses are possible.
3) We support answers with our tutorials + videos (+ Microsoft links)... this feature is coming soon.

Unfortunately test is paid but affordable... cheaper than Measure up (30£ per 3 full tests with 150 questions) and you can buy "weak points" or min-test from 2£ per 10 questions.

I believe there is demand for this kind of tests (those avoiding brain dumps who just want some practice)

So far we just have 1 test with 10 questions but over the next 2-3 weeks we will have 3 full tests (150 questions)... here is the link 70-461 Exam Practice Test

Hope that helps

Take care
Emil
