AWS She Builds CloudUp SAA : Climbing Uphill
Aka if it was easy everybody would do it!
OKAY FULL CONFESSION HERE…
it has been nearly 2 years since I have studied to pass an AWS certification. Attending the AWS She Builds CloudUp is knocking off all of the rust.
Since June 2020, I have been studying and working with Azure because of the abundance of free vouchers. I have been able to get no less than at least 5 Azure certifications (DP-900, AI-900, AZ-104, SC-900, AI-100) from Cloud Skills Challenges.
Right now I am sitting on a free exam voucher from an April Cloud Skills Challenge. I am currently attending the May Azure Cloud Week where I would qualify for an AZ-305 exam voucher, I have a MS-700 one from a Virtual Training Day and a SC-300 voucher that is good until June. Microsoft is allowing me to upskill and reskill for free using sweat equity so why not?!
I am in the AWS She Builds SAA program and back to studying for the certification AND…
It is starting off rocky. I scored 50% on my first Jon Bonso practice exam and the EC2 topic-based question quiz. AWS She Builds requires an 80% screenshot so I am officially 22 correct answers away from that on Tuesday night.
