GitHub Copilot - (GH-300) Exam Questions

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Copilot Chat provides conversational assistance with code context

Explanation:
Copilot offers inline code completions as you type.
Copilot Chat, introduced later, offers:

• Conversational AI support (ask questions like “What does this function do?”)

• Context-aware guidance directly within VS Code, JetBrains, and other IDEs
  It brings chat-based problem solving and explanation to the editor.

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Access to organizational context, such as internal code repositories

Explanation:
Copilot Enterprise leverages your company’s internal repositories to enhance suggestions.
This is a key differentiator:

• It uses enterprise knowledge to generate more domain-specific code

• Available only for organizations using GitHub Enterprise Cloud

Copilot Business and Individual don’t include this deep contextual awareness.

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Fine-grained policy settings to restrict features like telemetry or matching public code

Explanation:
Only Business and Enterprise plans support organization-wide policy enforcement, such as:

• Turning off telemetry data collection

• Filtering out code matching public sources over 150–200 characters
  This enables compliance and governance, which Individual plans lack.

Correct Answer: ✅ C. Via a downloadable plugin/extension that provides inline suggestions and chat

Explanation:
GitHub Copilot is integrated into IDEs through:

• The Copilot plugin/extension

• It enables inline completions, ghost text, and Copilot Chat

• Supported in VS Code, Neovim, JetBrains, and GitHub Codespaces

Once installed and authenticated, the plugin provides contextual suggestions as you type.

Correct Answer: ✅ A. Enabling/disabling code suggestion filters for public code

Explanation:
In the Copilot Individual plan:

• Users control their own settings, such as:

  • Whether to filter public code matches

  • Whether to enable telemetry

• There is no admin control or policy enforcement Centralized governance is only available in Business or Enterprise plans.

Correct Answer: ✅ C. GitHub Copilot Business includes IP indemnity, while the Individual plan does not

Explanation:
IP indemnity protects companies from legal liability due to AI-generated code.

• Only Copilot Business and Enterprise plans include IP indemnity

• Copilot Individual users do not receive these legal guarantees This is critical for companies concerned about compliance and code provenance.

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Context-aware code completions, comment-to-code, and Copilot Chat (if enabled)

Explanation:
With Copilot Individual:

• Users get full IDE support including:

  • Context-aware inline suggestions

  • Comment-driven completions

  • Copilot Chat, if enabled (on supported IDEs) The experience is nearly the same across plans from a feature-use perspective—what differs is the management, control, and legal protection.

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Central enforcement of public code filters

Explanation:
Copilot Business allows org admins to enforce rules, such as:

• Enabling/disabling the public code match filter

• Controlling telemetry and data sharing Copilot Individual users can opt in or out on their own but don’t benefit from centralized control.

Correct Answer: ✅ B. Business plans provide centralized billing per organization

Explanation:
Copilot Individual:

• Billed per user, with self-managed subscriptions

Copilot Business:

• Provides centralized billing and license management

• Organizations can add/remove seats and handle billing centrally

This is a key reason teams prefer the Business plan.

Correct Answer: ✅ C. Available to all Copilot Individual users on supported IDEs with the Chat extension

Explanation:
Copilot Chat is now available in:

• VS Code and JetBrains IDEs

• To both Individual and Business users It only requires:

• A valid Copilot subscription

• Installation of the Chat extension/plugin in the IDE
  There’s no extra fee—just plugin and access.
