Microsoft Power BI exam (PL 300) voucher - retake included ?

I'm planning to take the Microsoft Power BI exam (PL-300) and came across an offer that includes a voucher with a retake option. I'm looking for more information on how this works. Specifically, I want to know if the retake is automatically included, how many times I can retake the exam, and what the process is for scheduling the retake if needed. Additionally, I'm curious if there are any eligibility criteria or deadlines I should be aware of regarding the retake. Any details or insights about this offer would be greatly appreciated!

When purchasing a Power BI (PL-300) exam voucher with the retake option, this usually means that in the event that you do not pass the examination on the first instance, you are offered a chance to retake the exam:

Here’s how it usually works:

Automatic Inclusion: The retaking option offered is generally included within the voucher purchase. Nevertheless, it is of utmost importance to check out the respective offer’s terms and conditions to ascertain whether the retake is included or not.

Retake Limits: Generally, there is a one-retake policy for most Microsoft certification exams, including the PL-300, in the event one passes the exam in the first instance. In case one fails the exam after the retake, then the candidate is expected to wait for a certain period, mostly 14 days, before they retake the exam.

Scheduling the Retake: If you have to do and schedule a retake, it is usually done on the same platform that you used to book the first exam. After you receive your results, you will use the same process to schedule the retake {Seats are limited on a first come basis unless you have more specific retake instructions, including a code for the retake voucher}. Place and Time are decided unless provisions for the acceptance of the scheduling request are provided, which includes the codes for the retake voucher.

Eligibility Criteria: Apart from being the person who purchased the retake option voucher, there are usually no particular criteria that would need to be met for someone to be able to retake the exam. However, do note that it is advisable to redeem the voucher within the validity periods based on organization policies, Microsoft in this case.

Deadlines: Take note of the last day to use the voucher. Vouchers are usually subject to restrictions on their use, usually one year from the date of issue. These particulars are available whenever one is inclined to purchase a voucher.

For accuracy and exactness, the official Microsoft Learning website should be consulted, or customers should be served through their support center. They will help you learn the current status of the policies and offers regarding the PL-300 exam. I wish you all the best in your preparation for the exam!

With many Microsoft Power BI (PL-300) exam vouchers, you can get a free retake of the exam, usually referred to as the "exam replay." In the event that you do not pass the exam on your first attempt, you will be allowed to attempt the exam again. Usually, the retake is automatically included; however, it is best to check this when purchasing it. You can have only one retake with every voucher. Retaking the exam will require you to wait a minimum of 24 hours after your original exam result and to rebook through the same channel. Check for deadlines or conditions with respect to the voucher, such as expiration dates or eligibility criteria.
