What's a good practice resource for the PL300 exam? This was from examtopics PL300 and the explanations to the answers are not comprehensive enough so it seems.

MeasureUp is expensive. I want a reliable resource to practice it with without spending and risk failing it all together.

Hi @YoungLearning - Actually , A Power BI dataset is the right option bacause of it allows us to leverage the existing data model and measures that have already been created. This minimizes the need for rework and redevelopment of the data model.

Using the existing dataset ensures consistency across different reports and dashboards. The measures and calculated columns in the dataset have been validated, reducing the risk of errors.
