MO-310 study plan

Configure the Slide Master, Handout Master, and Notes Master so a single edit propagates across a 20-slide deck

Build and save a custom Office theme (.thmx) by editing the color set, font set, and effect set

Switch slide size between 16:9 and 4:3 and reposition every placeholder so nothing overflows off-slide

Set presentation-level properties and options, including default view, proofing language, and autosave interval

Export a finished deck to PDF, to MP4 video, and to a PNG image set at a specified resolution

Merge two source presentations into one file while choosing whether to keep source theme formatting

Create, rename, and reorder at least three sections without moving individual slides

Import slides from both a Word outline and an external .pptx, then delete the slides that are not needed

Hide and unhide slides and reset a modified slide back to its master layout

Insert a Summary Zoom linked to three sections and confirm every link works in Slide Show view

Duplicate, reorder, and delete slides from both the thumbnail pane and Slide Sorter view

Switch between Title, Section Header, Two Content, and Comparison layouts without losing existing content

Apply slide-level background formatting and enable slide numbers and footers on all slides except the title slide

Reuse slides twice, once with Keep Source Formatting on and once off, and record the visual differences

Write speaker notes for five slides and export the notes pages as a PDF

Insert a table, apply a table style, merge and split cells, and toggle banded rows and columns

Format table cells with borders, shading, cell margins, and vertical alignment, then distribute rows and columns evenly

Insert a chart, switch its chart type, and edit the underlying data in the linked worksheet

Format chart elements: axis titles, data labels, legend position, gridlines, and a trendline

Update embedded workbook values and confirm the chart refreshes on the slide

Convert a bulleted list into SmartArt and re-lay it out across at least three different SmartArt layouts

Convert SmartArt back to individual shapes and insert a picture into a SmartArt shape

Insert a 3D model, then apply a preset view, pan, and zoom it using the 3D Model tab

Insert audio and video, trim the video clip, set the start mode, and add a poster frame

Compress media to a target quality and set the clip to loop until stopped

Format text with character and paragraph settings and create a custom picture bullet

Insert text boxes and apply autofit, text direction, and column settings to control overflow

Format shapes with fill, outline, effects, and merged geometry

Align, distribute, group, and layer shapes, and rename every object in the Selection Pane

Insert images and apply cropping to shape, background removal, artistic effects, and alt text

Apply and customize transitions, set duration and advance timing, and build a Morph transition between two slides

Animate objects with entrance, emphasis, and exit effects and reorder them in the Animation Pane

Set animation start options (on click, with previous, after previous), duration, and delay to build a four-step sequence

Add one motion path and one animation trigger, then confirm both behave correctly in Slide Show view

Copy animation settings to a second slide with the Animation Painter and adjust the copied timing

Complete two full-length timed practice exams and log every missed objective by domain

Rebuild the five weakest objectives from a blank file without notes or references

Re-run the timed sections for the two lowest-scoring domains and compare scores against the week-4 and week-7 checkpoints

Assemble a final one-page remediation sheet that pairs each missed objective with the exact steps that fix it
