Some people are using brain dumps for the AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate exam which is totally absurd and highly unprofessional because these dumps will not only hinder you from attaining in-depth AWS knowledge, these can also result in you failing the actual AWS certification exam since Amazon regularly updates the exam coverage.
Please also note that these AWS practice tests are not brain dumps and since Amazon shuffles the actual exam content from a question bank with 500++ questions, it is nearly impossible to match what you can see here with the actual tests. Again, the key to passing the AWS certification exam is a good understanding of AWS services and this is what our AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate practice tests are meant to do.
These AWS CloudOps Engineer Associate practice exams are designed to focus on important exam domains such as Monitoring and Metrics, Security and Compliance, Networking, and Deployment and Provisioning, hence, the aforementioned topics have more questions than the other domains/knowledge areas. The number of questions on each topic is carefully selected based on the domains listed in the official AWS SysOps exam guide.
We gave a considerable amount of effort to create and publish these AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate practice tests, including the laborious task of checking each item for any errors. We are confident that this will significantly help you pass your exam. All the best!
IMPORTANT NOTE
These AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate practice exams have a passing score of 72% but we highly encourage you to repeat taking these exams again and again until you consistently reach a score of 90% or higher on each exam.
Remember that using this product alone does not guarantee you will pass the exam as you still need to do your own readings and hands-on exercises in AWS. Nonetheless, these practice exams provide a comprehensive assessment of which knowledge area you need improvement on and even help you achieve a higher score!
Notice of the AWS Certification Name Change:
The "AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate" is now called the "AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer – Associate" effective September 2025. This reflects evolving industry terms and the broader scope of modern cloud operations.
Take note that this is mostly a name change and there's almost no major change in the exam domains nor its content.
Why the Change?
The rename to "CloudOps Engineer" aims to enhance the relevance and credibility of the certification, better highlighting the skills certified professionals have in deploying, operating, and maintaining AWS workloads.
Is this course still valid for the new SOA-C03 version?
Absolutely yes! Again, the content change is mostly on the name to "CloudOps Engineer" as AWS aims to enhance the relevance and credibility of the certification, better highlighting the skills certified professionals have in deploying, operating, and maintaining AWS workloads. No changes as well on the exam domains.
We will continually add more relevant lessons for this course to reflect the new SOA-C03 topics.
Exam Update:
The exam content (moving from code SOA-C02 to SOA-C03) is being refreshed to cover current best practices for monitoring and maintaining AWS workloads.
Key Content Additions:
The new SOA-C03 exam explicitly includes containers. It also features:
More modern AWS services/features.

Personally, this test did not help me. To be thorough, I took each practice exam 7–8 times, in addition to fully going through Stefan’s theory. However, I failed the real exam twice! The questions on the real exams are very different from this test pack; only about 5–8 questions were similar or identical. In the end, I prepared using a course from another instructor and the official AWS Skill Builder exam, after which I passed successfully. If I had to do it again, I would not buy this course for preparation.

Passed using solely this practice set as my study guide for CloudOps Engineer - Associate. Keep in mind, I recently passed SAA-C03 and DVA-C02, so that could've helped my success. These sets were a little outdated, but some of the questions on the real exam were EXACT copies of these questions. Awesome practice set!
By Long Tran on 2/22/2024
Today, I achieved the AWS SysOps certification. I want to express my gratitude for this course. These teachings were instrumental in helping me pass the SysOps certification, despite the varied nature of the exam questions. The detailed explanations in your practice exams greatly contributed to my success. Thank you so much.

I appeared for the exam in November and scored 1000/1000. I prepared using Stephane Mareek's Udemy course and practicing these question papers and was getting between 85-95% in these exams. These question papers are really good for preparing for the examination.
By Likando Mbumwae on 9/26/2023
I recently passed my Aws SysOps Associate exam in 18 days using Stephen Mareeks course and these practice tests. I scored 60, 63, 69, 69 and 66 . I did a once over on all the topics I got wrong on Stephens course and only just barely passed my certification exam. I found the actual exam probably just as hard as theses set of practice exams. I definitely would not have passed if it was not for this set of practice tests. I strongly recommend reading the exam guide thoroughly and not cramming answers my exam was very much based on core concepts of trouble shooting errors from cloudFront, CloudFormation, ELB access log, VPC flow logs etc. The questions where extremely tricky and very close in comparison with one another so it is vital to understand concepts and how the services work together. DO NOT EXPECT verbatim question phrasing but similar difficulty. I did not complete the exam. The first few questions of the exam were extremely challenging. I imagine this is done to frustrate the test taker. I found this exam to be slightly more challenging that the Solution Architect Associate exam and the Developer Associate exam not at all an easy exam to crack. You have been warned! Solid effort from the team here at TD / Jon Bonso
By Anshika Gupta on 6/18/2023
This was a good course - i am just wondering if the technical complexity of these questions realistically emulates the exam itself - or is the exam gonan be more or less tough in relation to these questisons - i know its a bit of an unfair ask - but oribaby you can give a benchmarking rating to each quiz - saying this is the easier test and , another test is more difficult. Also i found a lot of questison from MS active directory etc which is not too well covered in the corresponding Udemy course itself - but overall good one !
By Swarna Bhattacharya on 1/27/2023
Passed the SysOps exam today! Extremely thankful to Jon Bonso for curating this test series which closely resembles the real exam. I found at least 3-4 questions from these papers in my SysOps test, making me say it again that Jon Bonso has the most well-researched and realistic test series. I just spent 2 weeks taking these tests and my knowledge gaps were already bridged. Great resource!
By Jason Lee on 10/11/2022
Good questions. I passed the exam on first try, I devoted about 2 weeks on practice exams alone right before the exam (in addition to studying time). I recommend buying practice exams from other providers also. This one has very good value with most number of exams. Sometimes quantity itself is quality. These are 55 so a bit shorter. Right before the exam, I did 2 practice exams per day, and this one was the 'short' one vs. other 'long' exams from other providers, to keep my sanity.

I took my 28/08 exam and failed 685/1000, despite having an average of over 80% in the jon simulations, I found the real exam much more difficult. Unlike the SAA where the tutorialdojo simulations are even more difficult than the actual exam, this was not the case, unfortunately for SOA we don't have more quality simulations on udemy. I used the stephane maarek course and these simulations, I even bought others here on udemy but they were very bad. I advise that along with this set of jon simulations, also use the whizlab, after failing I bought these simulations and found more similar to the actual exam.
By Kamini Mahajani on 7/2/2020
I passed the certification with all the prep work I had done (Linux Academy training for over 6 months, hand-on labs, session quizzes, and much more). The real certification tests covered some of the areas of DevOps (API command line options and CloudFormation details) that were not the focus of LA training. Having done my courses for Solution Architect, SysOps as well as DevOps was a big help Each of the 5 tests I took had lots of questions that were not covered in any of the training and hand-on-labs I had worked on to prepare for the certification. One of the things I liked, though, about the evaluation of the tests, is the detailed explanation of each of the questions and why a particular answer or set of answers are correct and why the others are incorrect. The links pointing to tutorialsdojo notes were very helpful as well. It did help improve my knowledge as well as understand areas of my weakness.
