Read Before You Register: 070-411 Exam Q&A
Recommended: Exam 70-410 (Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012); no strict prerequisites These conditions come from Microsoft and can be revised, so confirm the current requirements on the official exam page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/exams/70-411/ — better a two-minute check than a wasted Microsoft Administering Windows Server 2012 registration.
The Microsoft Administering Windows Server 2012 exam gives you 120 minutes to work through 40-60 questions.
