April 24, 2026

Azure AI-200 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 Microsoft AI Cloud Developer route (AI-200). 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 Application hosting Choose between app services, Functions, containers, APIs, and background workers for AI-enabled apps.
Day 3 Integration and events Use queues, topics, event routing, API boundaries, retries, and idempotency for reliable app flow.
Day 4 Data and vector support Match Cosmos DB, relational stores, cache, search, and vector patterns to app requirements.
Day 5 Security and observability Apply identity, secrets, logging, tracing, metrics, and safe rollout patterns.
Day 6 Troubleshooting and traps Use the cheat sheet traps table and explain every missed option.
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.
