Practical summary of changes to DP-600 study guide

5h ago (edited) in DP-600

Hi everyone,

Can someone more experienced explain in practical terms what has changed and how it affects the exam questions? From my perspective, it seems that there is less emphasis on ETL (especially with Spark notebooks), and more on the querying with SQL or KQL. I heard the exam can be heavy with DAX, but do you think it will be even heavier? How much KQL could we expect?

I assume some of these changes were influenced by introducing DP-700 (still in beta) and MS will try to clearly separate these two exams on skillset. DP-600 will lean toward data analytics, while DP-700 toward data engineering. What do you think?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!
