Hi @Santhosh, tomorrow is Feb 27 and good luck in your exam tomorrow. I am also planning to write my exam next month so please share your exam experience to us when you completed the exam, and how close Scott’s course in the actual exam. I read most of the threads in the forum and most of the people just took the beta exam so i am interested with you who will take the actual exam. tnx

Hi thanks for this. The "New Exam Blue Print" and "Sample Questions" links dont work. Can you fix?

anesu2005

Thank you for this planning to take the exam soon as well.

Vishal Kalra

The reinvent videos mentioned are of 2017. Shouldn’t we be referring to the latest one’s i.e 2018 ? Some of the information might be outdated ( e.g. hashing and random prefixing the S3 key is no longer required to see improved performance)
