Passed AWS Cloud Practitioner, preparing for AWS SAA ♥

Hi Everyone,

I recently passed my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner with 874.

Resources:

ExamPro CCP course on YT (freecodecamp) by Andrew Brown
👍AWS CCP at Linux Academy by Tia Williams
👍Practice Test from the AWS CCP at Linux Academy

Time:

🕐 It took me 9 days to prepare for the exam.

Tips...
✅ Write down (not type) your notes
✅ Read those White papers!
✅ Do practice tests and quizzes for the separate sections daily

This material was enough to pass, explanations are really good by Andrew and the Practice Tests were quite good to test that knowledge. Some questions were similar to the ones in the practice tests.

🤞Preparing for the AWS Solutions Architect Associate now, by the way here is another free course that I found on freecodecamp! AWS SAA by ExamPro.

❤Also, feel free to join the discord server AWSCertified, lets learn together!

Sorry, can you define CCP and SAA? Might help to define some of those acronyms for newbs like me.

From the links, it seems like CCP means: Certified Cloud Practitioner, and SAA means: Certified Solutions Architect (yeah, I'm a bit confused too).
