Detailed Review Of Preparation

My journey began around the 10th of January 2020. I had some prior hands-on experience with services like EC2, Beanstalk, and Amplify. I started looking at Udemy for Courses on AWS Certification. I then found Stephan Marek's course which I found to be extremely helpful in starting my journey. I was done with that course in about 15 days. After that, I needed to test my knowledge so I bought practice exams from Tutorials Dojo on Udemy. It had 5 papers. I practiced each paper one day and then tallied the answers. I made note of stuff that I didn't know of before taking the practice paper and then continued taking the practice tests until I consistently got 90%+ in those tests. In the last few days of preparation, I was reading AWS documentation as well as Tutorials Dojo's Cheat Sheets on their website.
