The AWS certification exam related validates technical skills and experience in designing distributed applications and systems on the AWS platform.

Certification gives you respect like a badge and it opens doors for you. From my personal experience, being certified opens a great venew of new opportunities. Have a look at the AWS Certification road map.

WhitePapers and FAQ’s of relevant services (mentioned below have patience) need to be covered, First, have a free tire account and explore the services relevant for the exam, Divide your time 60% Handson and 40% Theory.you can create a free tier with AWS for one year and use it to enhance your skill if you exceed free tier limits don't worry, watch AWS builders online series knowledge will surge up and you get 25$ as credit which can be redeemed in your AWS Account.

Try to cover theory early morning and do hands-on service by service , Maintain a short note of key facts for last-minute revision this will help a lot at the end.

Believe in yourself, Have confidence because confidence is the key to cracking this exam, Be practical and systematic in preparation never do procrastination in preparation why because you are preparing for success and not preparing to fail.

I took Whizlabs mock exams and Udemy video course done hands-on by parallelly watching Udemy Ryan Kroonenburg Stéphane Maarek and then gave the topic wise exam in Whizlabs, Read whitepapers top to bottom and highlighted main points and made short notes for which I feel I may forget used it for last-minute revision.

Exam day

Do not overstress yourself by thinking much about exam result, as it would not give you the peace of mind required before the exam

when you have peace of mind you will have the presence of mind and with that success will follow, Be aware of it

Visit the examination center a day before the exam, to avoid any last-minute delays as sometimes locations are incorrectly marked on the GPS apps

Have a good sleep with light food before going to the exam, Get your biological clock tuned to your AWS exam timings— especially for the people who study at night.

Do not read any new study material or books. Concentrate on the revision of content you have been preparing to date

Keep the mind in a calm state because recollection and analysis plays a crucial role in clearing the exam

No pen/pencil is needed and posses 2 original id cards to exam preferably passport and pan card

Use elimination technique wisely and look for the wrong option out of the given rather than the right one, there is no negative marking so make use of it

Certain questions we will be in dilemma while answering, so keep then mark for review and allocate the last 20min for those questions.
