Hello @UpparaUdaySagar 

I've taken a number of exams and one thing I would say is that the test creators like to use obscure pieces to formulate the questions. What I mean by that is we all tend to focus on the steps to do something but in the documentation they may have a "note" or "comment" about something which seems informational.

Like this example from the DOC site. I could see a question then be...What two things can't be modified after the approval step is marked as complete.

So...don't gloss over anything that is a comment or note on whatever you are studying. Looks at it and think, could this be a question because the logic is dependent on it? We would see that if we were in the tool, it would not let us but on an exam they are trying to see if we understand what is needed for certain items.

Hi @UpparaUdaySagar 

• Study the training material thoroughly – Go through it line by line, word by word, at least 2–3 times.

• Practice the labs multiple times – Do each lab 3–4 times. Don’t just complete them; carefully read and understand the instructions as well.

• Follow the official eBook – Review it thoroughly at least 2–3 times to reinforce your understanding.

Hi @UpparaUdaySagar 

I had given CAD recently, it was same feeling until day of exam. I would say be confident and prepare e book well. understand by doing the task or create application to understand better. play around in PDI to know concept so it gets registered in your memory.
