    One more thing to add. If you are getting 65-75% in Jon Bonso (Tutorials Dojo) Practice exams, Please go for the real exam. You will easily get 80%. My personal experience

    Watched courses on Linux Academy for practitioner and associate architect, then studied practice tests on Udemy for architect professional and got PASS. The key if you don’t know the answer just rule out nonsense ones. I fell I got lucky, but a pass is a pass :). Got 5 very similar, almost identical questions on exam which were in practice test. Good luck!

    A very honest account of your journey. Congratulations! My experience with the DevOps Pro last year was quite similar and I agree with all of your recommendations. I took a lot of hand-written notes and I used them when reviewing the course. I'm looking at the SA Pro course now and I'm surprised at how hard I'm finding it (I'm a former developer and I need to grow my networking fundamentals).

    Stéphane exam is really really tough.
    I scored between 70 and 80 on my first attempt in the jon bonso tests. And scored around 90 in the second attempt.
    And around 82 in the braincert exam that is tougher.
    But only got 66 in stephane exam. So i am a little bit reassured that you got 40 and even with that you successfully passed in the real one.

    So i did things just slightly different. I passed the Practioners first, then i passed the Solutions Architect. I'm currently studying for the Developers Associate. After that i'll tackle the Solutions Architect Professional. I used the same 2 courses you used. Stephane Maarek and Jon Bonso(for exams). What was your experience with the Devs Associate? In terms of difficulty which was harder between the 2 associates exams?

    • @leokasperavicius
      @leokasperavicius Před 3 lety +1

      For me, the 2 associate exams were pretty similar in terms of difficulty, but this might be just because of my previous hands-on experience with AWS (the topics overlap a bit, but not too much). If you have some experience with the topics, the courses from Udemy should be more than enough for you to pass. Good luck!

    Great tips. Did you find the developer associate exam helpful towards learning towards the SA Professional exam? I just recently passed SA associate and, coming from an architecture background, I'm wondering whether I should do the entire associate tier first or study for the professional.

    • @leokasperavicius
      @leokasperavicius Před 3 lety +1

      The SA Pro exam is so huge and it covers so many topics that I would say yes, studying and taking the Developer Associate certification helped me in few aspects, as (1) getting myself up to date and (2) having a chance of getting hands on a few topics. In my point of view, the SA Associate is a must and the Developer Associate can be an additional help.

  • @KenSherman
    @KenSherman Před 3 lety +2

    Interesting that you weren't prepared but still passed as I expected. Because maybe you were "over-prepared"?
    Instead of leaving a question after more than 5 minutes wouldn't a guess would've been better to improve your chances despite not knowing?

    • @leokasperavicius

      Yes, it felt like I was not prepared, but in the end my previous hands-on experience and hours of studying paid off :)
      Answering your question about guessing: it definitely worths to guess an answer before you move to the next one, since there is no penalty for guessing. I surely did that.
