GitHub GH-300 Study Plan: 30, 60, and 90 Days

April 24, 2026

GitHub GH-300 30-, 60-, and 90-day study plan with topic order, review loops, and final-week priorities.

On this page

This plan is a compact route for GitHub Copilot (Copilot). It assumes you are using TechExamLexicon for concept clarity and the exact IT Mastery page for practice routing.

Seven-day route

Day Focus What to do
Day 1 Orientation and scope Read the exam guide overview and official vendor page, then use this study plan to mark the lanes you already know and the lanes that need practice.
Day 2 Prompting and context Guide Copilot with clear intent, selected code, tests, comments, and repository context.
Day 3 Code review and validation Inspect generated code for correctness, security, style, licensing, tests, and maintainability.
Day 4 Enterprise policy Understand enablement, exclusions, data controls, content filters, telemetry, and usage governance.
Day 5 Developer workflow Use chat, completions, PR summaries, test generation, explanations, and troubleshooting help appropriately.
Day 6 Security and responsibility Handle secrets, sensitive data, vulnerable patterns, and human accountability.
Day 7 Timed review and scheduling decision Run a timed practice block, review explanations, update a one-page rule sheet, and verify current vendor facts before scheduling.

If you only have 48 hours

  1. Read the cheat sheet twice: once before practice and once after reviewing misses.
  2. Drill one mixed block and write a one-line reason for every wrong answer.
  3. Spend the next block only on your weakest two lanes.
  4. Recheck the current official vendor page before scheduling or buying an exam attempt.

Readiness signals

  • You can explain why each wrong answer fails the stem constraint.
  • You can map each scenario to one of the core lanes without looking at notes.
  • You can state the verification evidence you would expect after the chosen action.
  • You have checked the current official exam page for live status and requirements.
