Q17: answer is wrong, orderDate must be in the select list, when you want to order it. maybe they want something like this as an answer:

WITH temptable as
(SELECT c.Lastname, MAX(o.OrderDate) as MostRecentOrderDate
FROM Customers c inner join Orders o
ON c.CustomerID = o.CustomerID
GROUP BY c.LastName)
SELECT * FROM temptable
ORDER BY MostRecentOrderDate DESC;

Valid. Scored 9xx.

All the questions included in the dump.
However, answered all the questions as indicated in the dump, so some of them are incorrect. Still passed.

Tuesday, May 28, 2013 6:58 PM UT

Hi guys, as it says in ur comments that this dump covers the whole real exam questions, but in the dump there is only 43 questions 10 of them are writing codes, so how come it covers the real exam since the real exam contains between 45 and 55 questions.? kindly advise.

Valid dump, passed with 943. No answer to write. A few difference in formulation of answers. EG: B, Q36 has an option more. C, Q8, has an option left.
2 new questions, but very similar to these in the dump.
1) Asks for correct type for a fixed precision with 6 scale digits with options: biging, varchar, real, decimal.
2) In Employee table, question is about which field should have a self-referenced foreign key.

Bel lavoro Ax, grazie ;)

@ mili & @GV1x
I verified Q 33 based your link to msdn it says:
------------------------------------------
1) .WRITE (expression,@Offset,@Length)
If @Offset is NULL, the update operation appends expression at the end of the existing column_name value
2) If you must use TOP to apply updates in a meaningful chronology, you must use TOP together with ORDER BY in a subselect statement. The following example updates the vacation hours of the 10 employees with the earliest hire dates.
Transact-SQL

UPDATE HumanResources.Employee
SET VacationHours = VacationHours + 8
FROM (SELECT TOP 10 BusinessEntityID FROM HumanResources.Employee
ORDER BY HireDate ASC) AS th
WHERE HumanResources.Employee.BusinessEntityID = th.BusinessEntityID;
GO
-------------------------------------------
so no doubt answer is C update .write.null,0) from..

Guys whats your opinion

Saturday, May 25, 2013 9:15 AM UT

valid- 925 points

mili

Friday, May 24, 2013 6:37 PM UT

@GV1x-- i think the answer is write for Q33 . please go through the link below (read all details.) i had hard time finding the same ,but now its clear.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177523.aspx

Gv1x

Friday, May 24, 2013 3:02 PM UT

Q17 is incorrect:
GROUP BY LastName
ORDER BY OrderDate

=> You can't order by an item which is not in the group by.

Gv1x

Friday, May 24, 2013 2:25 PM UT

Q33: who have already seen something like: Summary.WRITE(N'This is in a draft stage', NULL, 0) ???

- .WRITE doesn't exist in TSQL !!!

Gv1x

Friday, May 24, 2013 1:49 PM UT

The answer to Q19 is incorrect according to me:
"The query must return the ranking of rows in a column named PriceRank"
=> So the solution should be: RANK() OVER(ORDER BY UnitPrice DESC) as PriceRank
- Why the proposed solution use a partition for the rank function ?

Exam A Q16 the answer still uses two-part names. the correct would be "from details" and not "from sales.details" . am I right?

Nes

Tuesday, May 21, 2013 10:19 AM UT

Passed with 8**. Dump is valid but there are a few questions where you are required to drag and drop. One related to Merge (so learn the merge function) another related to a view with schemabind and one related to a inline table valued function where you have to define the function and build up the select query. Other than that only a few new questions but you will pass with this dump. Don't learn this in parrot fashion. Make sure you understand the reason for the answers that are provided.

Monday, May 20, 2013 12:56 PM UT

Exam A , Q 21

I think answer is not :

SELECT OrderID
FROM dbo.Orders
WHERE OrderDate > CONVERT(DATETIME, @Parameter1)

Because for @Parameter = '20080504', the function CONVERT(DATETIME, @Parameter1) give this datetime : 2008-05-04 00:00:00
Therefore the OrderDate 2008-05-04 12:00:00 is returned.

I propose this :
SELECT OrderIDe
FROM Sales.Orders
WHERE OrderDate >= DATEADD("day", 1, @Parameter1)

Someone to confirm ?

Hello Tamara.
I passed this exam yesterday, in this type of questions, you have to type the querys, for that reason there is only one answer.If you click show the answer these are the answers that you should type. In the question above you should type.

DECLARE @XML1 XML (Sales.InvoiceSchema)

Tamara

Wednesday, May 01, 2013 2:03 AM UT

I also have the same problem,
some question they have only one answer
example:

Q18, Exam A=

You have an XML schema collection named Sales.InvoiceSchema. You need to declare a variable of the XML type named XML1. The solution must ensure that XML1 is validated by using Sales.InvoiceSchema.
Which code segment should you use?
To answer, type the correct code in the answer area.

only one answer, "A"
please help
