Time to Complete: 2 days

Another easy class. I took the PA blind and scored 86%. I skimmed the learning material (and I mean skimmed), then tuned into the crash course cohorts available under course announcements. There are two crash course cohorts, each about an hour. After watching those, I retook the PA and scored exemplary so I scheduled the OA for later that evening.

Two hours before the OA, I watched the cohorts again just for good measure. Started the OA and, for the first time, had a bunch of trouble with the proctor being able to see and hear me. He ended up downloading another program called zoom something that seemed to fix the problem. I ended up starting the exam about 20 minutes after my slotted time.

I thought the OA was a bit different than the PA. There were several similarly worded questions but others that I had to take educated guesses on. It took me about 30 minutes to take the test and I didn’t have a real warm and fuzzy when I submitted the test. It was all in my head cause I ended up scoring in the 85% range.

Takeaway

Skip the learning material and tune into the cohorts. I just used the crash course ones but there’s a series of deep dive cohorts available, too.
