GitHub Copilot (GH-300) Practice Tests

Validates knowledge of using GitHub Copilot across IDE, CLI and chat, covering prompting, data handling and policy controls.

GH-300 is closed book: 100 minutes for 60 scored multiple-choice questions plus about 10 to 15 pretest items. Candidates say the trickiest are Copilot plans, organization policies and content exclusions rather than everyday editor use. We compared the main options on exam-style wording, topic coverage and price.

Start with Microsoft's free practice assessment and GHCertified's free questions, then add MeasureUp for the closest match to the real exam and a cheaper bank for volume.

Free first look

GH-300 Practice Assessment

Microsoft's own practice questions, with the answer, a rationale and doc links for each question in the score report. Candidates treat it as a baseline and add a harder bank before booking.

Great fit if you want Microsoft's own question style and a free baseline before spending anything.

Poor fit if you want volume or a timed full-length run; use MeasureUp or Krausen's exams.

Free extra drills

GitHub Copilot Practice Test (GH-300)

Community-written questions kept in an open GitHub repository, in a randomized practice mode that links to the GitHub docs. It is small, with only 38 GH-300 questions.

Great fit if you want a few extra free questions after the Microsoft assessment.

Poor fit if you want a full-length timed run or written explanations; use MeasureUp or Krausen's exams.

Closest to the exam

Microsoft Practice Test GH-300: GitHub Copilot

Timed certification mode and a customizable practice mode, with explanations and online references for every correct and incorrect option. A free demo is available.

Great fit if you want the closest match to the real exam's wording and difficulty and are willing to pay for it.

Poor fit if you are on a budget; Krausen's four exams cost about a fifth as much.

Full-length practice exams

GitHub Copilot Certification Practice Exams (GH-300)

Four 65-question exams with scenario questions and multi-selects, and an explanation of every option with links to GitHub's docs. It is the biggest well-rated paid set for this exam.

Great fit if you want several full-length runs at a low price after the free options.

Poor fit if you want the closest match to Microsoft's own wording; add MeasureUp.

Cheap extra bank

GH-300 GitHub Copilot Practice Exams

A question bank with explanations and links to Microsoft docs, in randomized, timed, review and section modes, plus flashcards. A free 30-question sampler lets you try it first.

Great fit if you want a low-cost second bank and want to try a free sampler first.

Poor fit if you want one large bank; Krausen's has 260 questions.

What to look for in a GitHub Copilot practice test

Match the August 2026 outline. Microsoft revised the GH-300 skills on August 7, 2026, with minor changes to the IDE, features and safeguards areas. Prefer sets updated this autumn, and expect older banks to cover agent mode, MCP and the Copilot CLI more lightly.
Look for plans, policies and content exclusions. Candidates say the trickiest questions are Copilot plans and licensing, organization policies, content exclusions, public-code filtering and audit logs, not everyday use. A good bank asks what a given plan includes, not just what Copilot does.
Expect choose-two questions. Candidates describe items such as picking two correct options about what a Pro or Business plan allows. Choose a bank with multiple-response questions and explanations for every option.
Check how many fresh questions you get. GHCertified has 38 GH-300 questions, so it is used up in one pass. Krausen's 260 and Tutorials Dojo's 100+ leave room for a retake, and MeasureUp's 114 covers one or two full runs.
Treat Microsoft's assessment as a baseline. Candidates describe it as a guide to style and level and say MeasureUp's questions sit closer to the real exam. One candidate failed at 685 despite strong practice results, so do not rely on one free set.
Skip sites selling "real exam questions." Sites promising actual GH-300 questions or a guaranteed pass are selling leaked or copied items, not practice. Use products that write their own questions and explain every answer, so you learn the reasoning the exam tests.

How to use GitHub Copilot practice tests

Start with the Microsoft assessment. Take it before you study heavily, and read the rationale for every question, including the ones you got right, since each links to the topic it tests.
Use Copilot while you study. Passers credit daily Copilot use together with practice tests. Their weakest areas were enterprise features and subscription and licensing details, which are easier to learn from the plan comparison pages than from the editor.
Log misses by domain. The main areas are responsible use, features, data and architecture, prompt engineering, productivity, and privacy and exclusions. Features is the largest at 25 to 30 percent, so a weak spot there costs the most.
Do a full run late and watch the clock. Sit a 65-question set in the last week, using MeasureUp's certification mode or one of Krausen's four exams. Some passers report finishing in about 30 minutes of the 100 allowed, so pacing matters less than accuracy.
Do not memorise repeats. Once you remember a set's answers it stops measuring anything. Move to a new bank, or go back to the topic behind each miss.
