The Microsoft TS:MS.NET Framework 2.0-Application Develop Foundation exam is the official Microsoft test registered under exam code 070-536-Csharp. Passing it earns you the MCTS certification, a credential at the Technology Specialist (MCTS) level. It is also linked to the related certifications: MCTS: .NET Framework 2.0 Web Applications, MCTS: .NET Framework 2.0 Windows Applications, MCTS: .NET Framework 2.0 Distributed Applications. Microsoft exams are valued because they test job-ready skills, so a passing score here carries real weight on a resume.

The Microsoft TS:MS.NET Framework 2.0-Application Develop Foundation exam includes N/A questions to be completed within N/A (retired exam). Do the pacing math before exam day: with that many items on the clock, you need a steady rhythm and the discipline to flag a hard question and move on instead of stalling. Two or three full timed sessions with the ActualCollection test engine will show you exactly what that pace feels like, so time pressure stops being a factor on the real day.

To pass the Microsoft TS:MS.NET Framework 2.0-Application Develop Foundation exam you need N/A, and the official registration fee is N/A. A retake is not discounted: a failed attempt means paying the full N/A again, so treat your first sitting as the expensive one. A sensible rule is to book your seat only after you are scoring comfortably above the passing mark on the ActualCollection practice tests, not just squeaking past it once.

Candidates should have experience developing applications using .NET Framework and knowledge of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or 2008. It served as a prerequisite for various MCTS and MCPD certification paths. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
