MS Learn - Applied Skills - Fabric - Data Warehouse

[Jerstep]

I recently took and failed the applied skills assessment for data warehousing in Fabric and I'm looking for advice. I acheived 61% rather than the required 67% to pass. However, apart from one question, which I think I might have got wrong the others were demonstrabily correct. However, when I was asked to load some csv files to the warehouse, I created a gen2 dataflow for each. This worked as the tables were created and populated and I was able to continue. However, I am wondering whether this should have been a data pipeline. For these applied skills assessments, is the method you choose important not just that something works?

Hi @Jerstep

how many tasks were given to you and how were they categorized.
1) do all the task fall under custom task that needs you to build from scratch or
2) were there tasks that involve fixing an existing solution.

at the end of the assessment you woudl've got the section wise score. it would give you some idea about which task got what score. if the section in which you created dataflow got a less score then you can assume thats the case.

did the low score point to the section that involved you building everything from scratch or on the section that required fixing the existing solution.

please note that the email section of the assessment will have detailed tasks that you are suppose to do in a specific way mentioned. chances of missing minute details is possible , it happened to me as well , i had missed to notice i was suppose  to use the data from specific source but since the data was available on multiple locations i ended up using the wrong location.

hence kindly review all the emails before attempting to give the final solution.
if nothing specific is mentioned then you are to choose the solution that involves the least amount of administrative effort or in other words the simplest option.

Santhanam

Hi @Jerstep , I think you took the correct step as i was preparing for the Fabrics certification i had read through Leran and in there they mentioned whenver possible the engineers would go for low code solutions in this case Dataflow and this was actually asked in the Certification Exam also ..... But havent taken any applied skills assesment yet but I think you chose the correct one
