Thank you!!

[@amadebrah7457]

Very informative, I love your advice. I was missing out trying it hands on

[@grim789]

Lol I'm learning from Stephane course on Udemy to he is great straight to the point no BS and doesn't draw out what should be a 5min video into a 30 minute one.

[@vicolmenares]

As always excelent videos and tips. Thanks Lucy.

Thanks for watching!

[@lungisathole5779]

I started watching your videos a week ago and after each video I'm gaining more confidence that I can actually pass my AWS exam😁 thanks Lucy

[@prakash.belote]

Hello I am Prakash. I am started my journey on cloud. Luckily I got your CZcams channel so I got so many learning materials. Thanks for providing such learning materials.
You are great !!!!

[@vipinjain4340]

Useful information thanks

[@luisadrianmoralesguzman5822]

You are the best :3

[@michellek50]

This is my goal for AWS 2021. Thank you

[@TechwithLucy]

Great! Best of luck 💪

[@dipanshusabharwal]

Seams reasonable. Even I am going to shotgun it.

[@wilbread]

Thanks for the video! How much time did you spend on each aspect of learning (e.g. split between video theory/practice exams)
Also as a creator, how much time are you spending on CZcams while working part time these days? Keep up the good work! Warm regards from your neighbour NZ :D

[@nathanieln]

Thanks for sharing! I've just got into a solution architect role, and as part of the job, will be required to pass SAA-CO2 within 3-6 months, and the professional within 12.

[@TechwithLucy]

Amazing!! Congrats on the new role :)

[@frederickwalker2528]

I just purchased the Udemy certificate architect class but the date to take this certification ends August 30 and it’s updating the certification test will this class still help me pass this certification.

HOW DO YOU GET THE PLANER

[@laieqahmed676]

hello Lucy this is ahmed i have doubt if we apply for aws for basic cloud practices while first time we have fail then how many time we rewrite the exam is that any chances to clear this and which type of aws exam is real tuff and hardest

[@kabukidd3250]

Did you try Neal Davis’s material? If you did, let me know your opinion on it.

[@TechwithLucy]

I didn't purchase his courses but I found a lot of his CZcams videos helpful! He created an amazing video series where he walked through different exam questions and how he would approach them. Here it is: czcams.com/video/Q9L-_7iByx0/video.html

[@gowthamreddy4871]

Hai , will original test be easier when compared to mock tests in Tutotial dojo ?

[@TechwithLucy]

For me I thought it was similar

[@franciscomedinav]

Time management is the key.

[@TechwithLucy]

Yep 😄

[@alvinlim1566]

Where do you get to do the hand-on lab ?

[@TechwithLucy]

It’s part of the video courses 😄

[@nicolell3818]

Hi Lucy, do we need to have coding background to pass the AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam? I study IS degree too. :)

[@TechwithLucy]

Short answer: Nope!

[@TechwithLucy]

Longer answer: It helps, but not required 😄 the ASA exam is not centred towards programming / coding. You don’t need to know how to code in order to understand how AWS services work on a high level, you’ll need to understand the basics of networking, compute, storage etc

[@nicolell3818]

@@TechwithLucy Thank you!

[@aaronchai1019]

How did you find the Developer exam compared to the Architect exam, which I’ve already done? Any tips for the Developer exam in itself?

[@TechwithLucy]

Great questions - I found myself asking others the same after completing the Architect exam :)
Both exams assess your knowledge of the core AWS services and best practices, so there was quite a bit of overlap. However, the Developer exam introduced many new concepts such as CI/CD. One thing I noticed was that the questions from the Developer exam tended to be shorter and more fact-based whereas the Architect exam has more situational and scenario-based questions.
I'd recommend if you're following a video course, not skipping any content you have seen previously from the Architect exam study - it might feel repetitive but it's important to see how different AWS services are used from the point-of-view of a developer. When preparing for the developer exam, try to be more hands-on with the AWS services, as this will help with a lot of questions that are more specific and ask about a small feature of a service.
Hope this helps, and best of luck with the exam!

[@TechwithLucy]

@@aaronchai1019 Solutions Architect Professional Certification :)

[@aaronchai1019]

@@TechwithLucy nice one. That one is probably a long time down the road for me as I plan on clocking the associate tier and a couple of specialty certs before hitting the professional tier :)

[@aussietramp]

Hi Lucy,out of curiosity ..which were the 3 exams you passed in 3 months? Thanks for sharing!

[@TechwithLucy]

The ones in the video thumbnail :)

[@nohandsignal]

I love you 😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@vipinjain4340]

You are from technical background or non-technical .... because of its not easy to clear all 3 exam in 3 months for non-technical person

[@TechwithLucy]

I study Information Systems in University so I had some basic knowledge, but no real hands-on experience. Most of the technical concepts (Networking, VPCs etc.) were new to me!

[@romainea.parker7359]

Which courses

[@TechwithLucy]

I’ve linked it in the video description :)
