It takes courage to share failures, but that's what makes it worthwhile for others to know and learn. Thanks for sharing. Appreciated. You asked for the opinion.. you were close, so you must re-appear. You will clear this time.
I think the way to pass is by doing tons of practice questions that mimic the exam experience (Tutorials Dojo). So it becomes a reading comprehension exam vs AWS cloud architecture exam. I also had the same experience 3 years ago very short of passing but I might give it another try now that they have a new exam blueprint
I agree, but then the big question is, is it worth to spend so much time just by practice questions to beat the test or is it better to do something else which will be bring you other benefits, f.e. like building real project on AWS or just learning some other technology..... I don't think a lot of people will recognize the difference between the AWS Solution Architect Associate certification and Pro one. But of course maybe your employee want you to have Pro certification.
@@ForDevelopers I agree with you 100%. I think having the Pro certification is more of a resume thing than anything else, maybe bragging rights. Some employers require to have a certain number of certified people on staff. It may also help you to get a raise or a promotion if your employer cares about this. The other thing is, you will end up forgetting the information you learned or memorized for the test very soon after. I found that the SysOps exam was more useful to me as I had to do more hands on which helped me for my job.
I wonder if you can pass the test JUST by doing a ton of questions. I'm not sure. Currently, I think preparing for the certification teaches you to get a clear vision of the description and proposed architecture.
@@Reflekt0r I think you still need experience especially for the Pro cert. I ended up passing in February, after I got some motivation to study. Used Stephane Maarek's Udemy course and Tutorial Dojos practice tests
Never give up hope Štefan. Go ahead and take the exam once again if possible. And one extra tip: if possible, take a vacation for your exam period - this will help you get over the possible stressful situations better
Do not worry, its great you prepared and attempted the exam, it was a great achievement. Hope you will pass soon.
Thank you

@@gvoden Congrats and thanks for the tips! I've still got a long way to go but it seems to be an interesting journey.
Did you take the test again bro?
Nope, didn't not worth it.
Thank you so much for the advice. Much appriciated!
You are so welcome!
This fear is also undermining my studies.😢
I got 731 score and result was fail
got 728, same, we needed 2 more right questions :(
750 is very close, but as you know the questions are done in the way - to trick you - not to test your knowledge.
