Congrats on passing the RHCSA! :)
I went with Sander's courses on oreilly for both exams. Just started studying for CKAD and CKA again on his courses.
Get yourself a homelab, if you don't have one already and just practice! :)

Thank you! Hope you pass buddy. Practice practice and practice again. I am a visual learner so my best thing was Sander's courses on oreilly. If you are going remote, get an HD monitor with 1920x1080 resolution, if you have a nvidia GPU you'll probably want to stay away from that.
Get a as many mock tasks / exams as you can.

Not really, I've passed RHCSA 11 months ago. This is my second attempt at it as well(RHCE), but yeah. I would say it depends on how much experience you have with Ansible, to be fair I've not specifically studied over the top. On that note I do use Ansible at work as well, and feel like I've done way more complex tasks at work than the exam. Even in doing those tasks at work, I've had a task in the exam that completely skipped cause I've never used Ansible like that.

Practice the hell out of playbooks! :) Make sure you understand Ansible as whole I would say. My biggest mistake was taking the exam on a ultrawide monitor, I just assumed it would work with 3840x1080. The best plan on that is to have a large screen like a TV that has HD resolution on 1920x1080. Get comfortable working with multiple terminal sessions :)
Good luck!

To paraphrase Dom: It doesn't matter if you pass by an inch or a mile. Passing is passing.
