I recently came across a post from Isaac Levin which helped me pass the exam.
Here are other resources I found very helpful while doing my study:
- Training guide from Microsoft, uses Microsoft Learn: https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RWtQqM
- Training from Linux academy: https://linuxacademy.com/azure/training/course/name/microsoft-certified-azure-developer-exam-203-prep . They have 7 day trial.
- Labs : https://microsoftlearning.github.io/AZ-203-DevelopingSolutionsforMicrosoftAzure/ (Did all the labs from here just few days before)
- https://www.pluralsight.com/product/channels?cid=573723f1-58d4-4429-a15b-af2e2ae53362 (This is a very big course. I would only do the modules which are new to you to understand them. I started with this , wish i didn’t. )
Question types I encountered
- Multiple Choice
- Arrange Code blocks in right order
- Complete code snippets
- Answer `Yes` or `No` for a solutions they suggest. whether it’s sufficient or not for the given scenario.
Start of the exam was a case study , middle were single questions and ended with another case study.
Some Tips:
- Do a system test from Pearson before exam day. I had some connectivity issues before starting the exam and had to try several time before starting the actual exam.
- Take a look at this link from pearsonvue.
- You can’t take any food or water during exam so be well prepared.
- If you are having WiFi connectivity issues , try mobile hotspot. It saved me.
- Don’t buy those brain dumps from any sites. Take a look at this question from their FAQ.
How long did you prepare for this exam? It would be nice for me to hear how long other students needed for that exam.
I prepared for about 3 months. Day to day azure experience at work also helped a lot.
