I passed on my first attempt and this is how I did it..

1. Watched this video from freeCodeCamp.

Start focusing on 2:45:00. This is where all the information needed to pass the exam started.

2. Did 10 example questions from AWS

https://aws.amazon.com/certification/certified-cloud-practitioner/

3. Signup for acloudguru.

They gave me 7 days free trial and so I really utilized that 7 days

4. Signup for Whizlab

They gave 20 free practice questions and I bought their question sets. One set have 65 question. They sent me promo code upon sign up so I end up paying only 7USD.

5. Watched this video

My tips : increase to 1.25 playback speed

6. Read this cheatsheet.

Link to cheatsheet. It is actually from a blogpost which also shares some tips to pass the exam.

7. Did this free practice test.

8. Download and Read AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner Study Guide (CLF-C01) Exam PDF.

Link to PDF. It’s a book by David Clinton and Ben Piper.It have 25 questions assessment test with answers and as well as the resources for the AWS Certification Exam

And that’s all. I know other people also recommend LinuxAcademy but as for me all those preparation was sufficient.

In addition, it is good to read whitepapers provided by AWS but personally I’m just too lazy to do that. Goodluck for your exam!
