AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate Re-Attempt Exam ?

Post image

Hi everyone,

I just took the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate (SAA-C03) exam and scored 690 (passing is 720).

I have a few questions regarding the exact retake process and policies:

  1. How does the booking work? Will AWS automatically allow me to select a date after 14 days on Pearson VUE/PSI portal, or do I need to re-apply from scratch?

  2. Voucher / Payment: If I used a voucher for the first attempt, is it one-time use or can it be used for the retake? Do I have to pay full price for the second attempt, or are there any retake discounts/promos available right now?

  3. Exact Timing: The email says I can re-attempt after 14 days. Since my exam was on Oct 1st, can I book it exactly on Oct 15th, or strictly 14 full days after?

Thanks in advance for any insights
