&lt;p&gt;This is my second AWS certificate having passed the &lt;strong&gt;AWS Solution Architect - Associate&lt;/strong&gt; couple of months earlier.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SAP-C02 took me about 2 months to study for and I used the following resources to study:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://learn.cantrill.io/p/aws-certified-solutions-architect-professional" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Cantrill&amp;rsquo;s AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional course&lt;/a&gt;. This course was almost 70 hours long, and it took me about 1 month to go through. It is a good course, but gosh is it long&amp;hellip; I feel like it would be much better to complete 3 courses that are ~20 hours long instead of doing single Cantrill&amp;rsquo;s class.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.udemy.com/course/aws-solutions-architect-professional/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Stephene Maarek&amp;rsquo;s AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional 2025 course&lt;/a&gt;. 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&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;My own AWS Organization created just for learning and practice. This org is made out of 3 accounts, with SSO set up ( using Azure).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://portal.tutorialsdojo.com/courses/aws-certified-solutions-architect-professional-practice-exams/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Tutorial&amp;rsquo;s Dojo Tests&lt;/a&gt;. These tests are not perfect, and sometimes frustrating ( due to grammar, and the way they are written). For ~$15 USD the value is unbeatable. My test scores were as follows:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Review mode Set 1: 73%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Review mode Set 2: 76%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Review mode Set 3: 76%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.udemy.com/course/practice-exam-aws-certified-solutions-architect-professional/learn/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Stephane Maarek&amp;rsquo;s Udemy SAP-C02 Practice Tests&lt;/a&gt;. My scores were:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Practice mode Test 1: 72%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Practice mode Test 2: 52% ( not sure what happened here, but I was sick and feverish when I did this one)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.udemy.com/course/aws-certified-solutions-architect-professional-aws-practice-exams/learn/quiz/5156504#content" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Neal Davis&amp;rsquo; Udemy SAP-C02 Practice Tests&lt;/a&gt;. My scores were:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test #1: 74%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test #2: 71%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Test #3: 82%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
