The 072-640 exam is the official assessment for the Microsoft TS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuring 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.

Recommended: 1+ year of experience implementing and administering Windows Server 2008/R2 environments; no mandatory prerequisites

The official outline for the 072-640 exam highlights these domains:

• Configuring Domain Name System for Active Directory (19%)
• Configuring Active Directory Certificate Services (7%)
• Creating and Maintaining Active Directory Objects (21%)

Weighting your study time toward the heavier domains first is a sensible strategy, and the Microsoft TS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuring practice questions at Lead1Pass follow the same objective structure.

Microsoft recommends the following training resources for 072-640 exam candidates:

• Microsoft Official Course 6425B: Configuring and Troubleshooting Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Services

Pairing official courses with timed practice sessions tends to work well, since one builds knowledge and the other builds exam-day rhythm.

The 072-640 exam gives you 120 minutes minutes to answer 60-70 questions. That pace leaves little room for hesitation, which is why rehearsing under a timer — for example with the online test engine at Lead1Pass, where you can set the session length just like the real test — is such a useful habit.

The online test engine is exclusive to Lead1Pass and runs on any electronic device — phone, tablet, or computer — with no installation barriers. It recreates the atmosphere of the real 072-640 exam: you set the test time the way it will be on exam day, work through the Microsoft TS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Configuring 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 072-640 exam you need a score of 700 / 1000, and the registration fee is Approx. $125 USD (historical, varies by region). 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.
