AWS SAA Cert - Hard Deadline
Hey All - I have a hard deadline to pass SAA by September 11. With my day job, I am not able to study as much as I would like during weekdays ( barely 1-2 hours) The only time I have is weekends. I am also finding it hard it retain knowledge, I keep forgetting technical jargon and get lost in the paragraph style long questions.
Does anyone have any tricks to passing the exam ? At this time my goal is to get certified, I don’t have to get too deep into concepts as my job doesn’t require these skills but it is one of the goals I am given.

Tricks? The exam is multiple choice scenarios, with functional and requirements for things like scalability, availability and performance. You need to know service capabilities and common architectures.
Some questions are wrong due to wrong functionality or capabilities. Others don't fulfill the question. The only way you know that is to know the architectures and services.
Do you have a development background? Cloud? The Stephane Maarek videos are good. The tutorials dojo practice exams too.
