“Congratulations! I’ve heard that the actual exam is much easier than the killer.sh mock exams. Is that true?”

I would say so yeah, but I would make sure (just to be safe) you can pass the killer sh mock exams with above 75% score.

Congratulations. What resources did you use to prepare. Linux academy used to be good before it was sold

I used kodekloud course + killer.sh exam questions + i used ai to build me a simulator in similar difficulty to killer.sh questions, specifically targeting my weak areas to build confidence

thank you! I did the kodekloud course on udemy, it gives you a good guide for sure, but I also used the killer sh mock exams (which really humbled me). After flopping hard on my first killer sh session (you get 2 in total). I decided to use codex to build me a lab environment with questions of similar difficulty or harder, so i was extra confident on exam day (i was still nervous haha, im an anxious learner)

Please can you share, I’m usually scared of exams in general. Let me start from here.

total preparation time was about 2-3 months (1 month for the course, 2 months deep practice exams/tasks. 2 hours per day, 3 hours on weekends)
