Common mistakes to avoid
- Waiting to study until after you redeem the code—expiry and booking availability can pressure your timeline.
- Over-focusing on one domain (often security) while neglecting cost optimization or resilient architectures.
- Memorizing service names without learning when and why to apply architecture patterns (VPC design, availability strategies, scaling, trade-offs).
- Skipping hands-on labs and relying only on theory; scenario questions test decision-making.
- Booking too soon after reading—use mock exams to confirm readiness.
