:rocket: Exciting News! I Passed the CKA Exam on My First Attempt! :tada:

A huge huge thanks to @mmumshad for his excellent course on KodeKloud. It was instrumental in helping me quickly grasp the concepts and engage in hands-on practice immediately after learning each topic.

Here’s a brief overview of my preparation journey:

  1. Preparation Time: I dedicated about three full weeks to prepare.
  2. Course Path: I started with the Linux Fundamentals, followed by Kubernetes Fundamentals, and then the CKA Exam course.
  3. Mock Exams: The three CKA mock exams at the end of the course, along with the Lightning Lab, were invaluable. Practicing them and managing to finish within 30 minutes was really a great confidence booster.
  4. Final Preparation: I began the mock exams three days before my scheduled exam. Initially, there were 10 random mock tests, but they switched to 5 due to an update from the KodeKloud team. Despite this change, I tried and scored between 85% to 100% on all five mocks, further boosting my confidence.
  5. Practice and Hands-on Labs: The hands-on labs during the course were a great asset, helping me get well-practiced with the commands and concepts. I also practiced few questions on Killercoda and Killer.sh, which familiarized me with the exam interface and challenging scenarios.
  6. Exam Experience: I managed to answer 16 out of 17 questions correctly in the real exam. I didn’t feel the need for aliases except for k=kubectl, which was the default, and the auto-complete feature helped a lot while typing commands.

A special thanks to the support team for their quick assistance with technical queries and general questions.

Thank you again, Mumshad Mannambeth, for the fantastic course and the KodeKloud platform!

Onward and upward! :rocket:
