    You need to book and pay for the exam again. There are no free retakes.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/support/retake-policy

    Microsoft Certification exam retake policy for role-based, specialty, and fundamentals exams

    • If you don’t pass an exam the first time, you must wait 24 hours before retaking it.
    • A 14-day waiting period is imposed between all subsequent attempts (up to 5).
    • You may not take a given exam more than five (5) times within a 12-month period from the first attempt. If you failed the exam 5 times, you’ll be eligible to retake it again 12 months from the date of your first attempt.
    • You cannot retake an exam you’ve passed unless your Certification has expired.
    • You must pay to retake the exam (if applicable.)

    To retake your Microsoft exam after not passing on your first attempt on September 7th, you must wait 24 hours before you can schedule your retake. After that, you can register for the exam again through the Microsoft certification website or Pearson VUE, depending on where you originally registered. If you need assistance with the registration process, you can contact Pearson VUE Customer Support.
