In this video, I talk about the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate Exam (AWS SAA-C03) and how to pass it. I also share my study strategy for AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam and the study tools I used to prepare for it. I passed the exam with a score of 810 out of 1000.

I talk in detail about each tool that I used to study for AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam and how they helped me pass the exam.

Below are the tools I used to prepare for AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam

1. AWS Free Tier Account
This is the most helpful resource as it will give you a lot of hands on practice. There is also Amazon Q assistant that can answer your question (I talk bout it at 10:02)

2. Udemy Courses
I talk about the 2 major courses I used to prepare for AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam and which one I liked the most. In my opinion, the course by Stephane Maarek is the best

3. Hands-on Labs
I bought these from Digital Cloud Training. You should only buy these if you are scared of incurring charges on your aws account if you forget to clean up resources. I didn't find these much helpful

4. Tutorials Dojo
This was by far the best investment of 12$. The TD practice test review mode is something I highly recommend. I talk in the video about how it helped me and how you can use it to pass AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam

Note that I had no prior cloud or AWS experience and I was able to pass this AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam in less than 2 months of preparation. Here is my study strategy that you can use to pass AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam SAA-C03

1. Invest in Tutorials Dojo AWS SAA-C03 Practice test (around $12)
even if you don't know anything about us, just do the first test in review mode. while you are doing the test, read the solution when it is presented you and read the explanation that tutorial dojo gives you you after each answer

2. Make an AWS free tier account for hands-on practice
Use Amazon Q assistant to clear your doubts

3. Buy Stephane Maarek Udemy Course (around $17-18)
watch all Stephane videos, and devote about 1-2 hr per day to study. as you watch, follow along in your AWS account to practice.

In 1-2 weeks before the exam
Do rigorous tutorial dojo tests in review mode. If you can score 70-80% in those tests, in my opinion, you are well prepared. Do at least one test in review mode. there are a total 8 (as of now) for AWS Solutions Architect Associate Exam practice tests. you should aim to do 1 per day and study carefully the explanations. Don't skip the explanation. devote 2-3 hours of study in the last week mainly focussing on practice tests. and Study carefully the Solution Architect discussions on Stephane course carefully.

So in 1-2 months, you should be well prepared to sit for the exam even if you have no cloud experience. You should spend no more than 30$ on study resources. Don't fall for expensive courses or practice labs. I have tried them all and the only thing that worked for me is the ones I list in this video for you!

How to Get an Extension on the Exam?
For non-native English speakers, you can request a 30-minute extension by selecting the ESL+30 option in your exam portal. If you've already booked your exam, cancel it, apply for the extension, and then rebook the exam.

I hope you find this information helpful.
