SAP-C02

Last Friday I passed SAP-C02 the AWS Solution Architect - Professional exam.

This is my second AWS certificate having passed the AWS Solution Architect - Associate couple of months earlier.

SAP-C02 took me about 2 months to study for and I used the following resources to study:

• Cantrill’s AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional course. This course was almost 70 hours long, and it took me about 1 montht to go through. It is a good course, but gosh is it long… I feel like it would be much better to complete 3 courses that are ~20 hours long instead of doing single Cantrill’s class.
• Stephene Maarek’s AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional 2025 course. I ended up doing this course twice, with the second time being 3 days before the exam ( this involved 5+ hours per day cram sessions). Highly recommend
• My own AWS Organization created just for learning and practice. This org is made out of 3 accounts, with SSO set up ( using Azure).
• Tutorial’s Dojo Tests. These test are not perfect, and sometimes frustrating ( due to gramma, and the way they are written). For ~$15 USD the value is unbeatable. My test scores were as follows:
  • Review mode Set 1: 73%
  • Review mode Set 2: 76%
  • Review mode Set 3: 76%
• Stephane Maarek’s Udemy SAP-C02 Practice Tests. My scores were:
  • Practice mode Test 1: 72%
  • Practice mode Test 2: 52% ( not sure what happened here, but I was sick and feverish when I did this one)
• Neal Davis’ Udemy SAP-C02 Practice Tests. My scores were:
  • Test #1: 74%
  • Test #2: 71%
  • Test #3: 82%

Overall the test took me 2 hours and 40 minutes to write, and overall was tough, but I felt confident I passed it when it was all done.
