Question: 113
Measured Skill: Manage prompts and conversations by using AI (35–40%)
A product manager is using Microsoft 365 Copilot to analyze a set of internal documents that describe recent customer feedback about a mobile application. The manager wants Copilot to identify the most common issues customers reported and suggest areas the product team should prioritize.
The manager initially submits the prompt: "Review these documents and summarize them."
Copilot generates a high-level summary but does not clearly identify recurring customer issues or actionable recommendations.
Which prompt revision would most effectively improve the quality of Copilot's response?| A | Ask Copilot to generate a longer summary to ensure that all important details are captured. |
| B | Instruct Copilot to analyze the documents and identify the most frequently mentioned customer issues. |
| C | Request that Copilot rewrite the documents in a simplified format before generating insights. |
| D | Ask Copilot to review the documents and produce insights without specifying the type of analysis required. |
Correct answer: BExplanation:
Instruct Copilot to analyze the documents and identify the most frequently mentioned customer issues.
This prompt is more effective because it gives Copilot a specific analytical task and desired outcome rather than asking for a generic summary. Good prompting practices for Microsoft 365 Copilot involve clearly stating what kind of analysis you want, such as identifying trends, recurring themes, risks, or recommendations.

Question: 114
Measured Skill: Manage prompts and conversations by using AI (35–40%)
A product strategy team uses Microsoft 365 Copilot to analyze customer feedback documents and internal meeting notes stored in Microsoft 365. The team wants Copilot to generate structured insights that help prioritize product improvements and identify recurring customer concerns.
When designing prompts, the team wants to ensure Copilot produces focused and actionable responses.
Which prompt design practices would most improve the effectiveness of Copilot responses?
(Choose two)| A | Ask Copilot to generate responses without specifying constraints so that broader insights can Emerge. |
| B | Clearly describe the objective of the prompt and the specific task Copilot should perform. |
| C | Submit prompts that request multiple unrelated analyses within a single instruction. |
| D | Allow Copilot to determine the output structure without specifying it in the prompt. |
| E | Provide relevant contextual information that helps Copilot interpret the request accurately. |
Correct answer: B, EExplanation:
Microsoft recommends that effective Copilot prompts include a clear goal/objective and relevant context. These elements help Copilot understand exactly what you're trying to accomplish and produce more focused, actionable results.
For example, instead of asking:
"Analyze customer feedback."
A better prompt would be:
"Analyze customer feedback documents and meeting notes from the last quarter. Identify the top five recurring customer concerns, group them by theme, and prioritize recommendations based on frequency and business impact."
This prompt provides both:
- Objective (Goal): Identify concerns and prioritize improvements.
- Context: Customer feedback documents, meeting notes, last quarter, business impact.
