    I read somewhere it was 80%. Is that correct?

    80%, I believe is the pass mark for the practice exam suites (eg preplogic, transcender, etc). The passing score for any MS exam is 700, what this equates to percentage wise - no-one knows (apart from MS).

    See here.

    As said the pass mark is 700 for all MS exams but no one knows how they are marked. That is you may get 10 points for a question with two answers and you may get 20 points for a question with one answer nobody know how they are marked for sure.

    if your getting 80%+ on practice tests then you may be ok
