Taking my first AWS exam (AWS-CCP)

Hello world,

Initially was going to take the CGEIT but have decided to switch gears and tackle the AWS-CCP instead. Been studying off and on for the past month or so, exam scheduled for next Thursday. Will post my results and experience regardless of whether I passed or failed.

Took the exam earlier this afternoon at PSI, happy to say that I've PASSED! Took about an hour to complete including a quick review to ensure my responses are on par. Received the "CONGRATULATIONS" after hitting the submit button, official results will be emailed to me 5 business days.

Back to studying the CGEIT, will try to take the exam end of this month or early next month.

How hard was it on a scale of 1-10 ? Were there hands on labs as part of the course?

For me, it was a 6/10 but the level of difficulty varies from person to person. Didn't take a course, only vids and practice tests.
