Practice exams help you have an overview of your readiness. If you have failed a couple questions in one area, you can go back and work on them.

Having access to on-demand labs that I could spin up instantly was very helpful. I didn’t have to have a home environment with a bunch of virtual machines spun up. Or worry about destroying things.
