Has 70-480 been updated to the new HTML5 specs?

Hello, I'm preparing for exam 70-480 and I'm stumbling across some differences in the way IE10 was doing things and the new updated W3C specification.

For instance, at minute 20:00 of this video they show the use of flexbox and its -ms-flex-pack:justify CSS rule
http://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Developing-HTML-5-Apps-Jump-Start/Developing-HTML5-Apps-Jump-Start-03a-Advanced-Layout-and-Animation-Part-1

In time, that rule has been changed to justify-content: space-around, and W3C has moved it into 'candidate recommendation' status.

I'm not sure if the exam is still going to test me on the old, -ms- prefixed set of rules or not. Has it been updated recently?

thanks

Hi, BrightSoul.

I passed the exam in October.

I won't speak to individual CSS rules that are on the exam as this may illegally disclose exam content.

However, I will tell you that vendor prefixes are used in the exam, including those for IE and other browsers.

You will never be asked to choose between vendor prefix of a rule and a standard rule. I believe Microsoft recognized the fact that capabilities change rapidly as new browsers a re released and as standards change.

Good luck!
Best wishes, Davin Mickelson
