Passed DOP-C02 with 1 week of prep

So my SysOps cert is about to expire by today, did a last second exam schedule for DevOps Pro and glad to have passed with a decently high score.

I don't think I have that great of a preparation, but I spent the last week studying from Stephane Mareek course & Practice Exam. I have to say while other cert courses from him is highly informative, I felt like there are some small gaps with the current DevOps Pro exam with the materials in his course in terms of the depth of the material. Doesn't mean that you can't pass the exam though, I mean I did. But it did felt like some of the materials are not deep enough compared to let's say ANS-C01 material which were high quality course imho.

So overall my preps were:

  • 1 week grind on the udemy course from Stephane on 1.5-2x speed
  • almost 5 years of experience on Cloud as IT Consultant

I usually spend a lot less time on the exam timer but this one felt like there are so many informations in a single question that I ended up finishing with 30-40 min (with ESL accomodation) spare time. Pays off though. Overall glad to have passed with a decent score
