Hey everyone! ๐
I'm taking the Databricks Certified Data Analyst Associate exam this Sunday (June 28) and looking for any last-minute tips or advice from people who've recently passed.
A bit of context: I've been studying for a few weeks using the official exam guide (Oct 2025 version), practice exams, and I've built a solid question bank across all 9 domains. I feel reasonably confident on SQL in the Lakehouse and Data Management, but still a bit shaky on some Analytics/Statistics topics.
A few specific questions:
- Is the difficulty level of the official practice test representative of the real exam?
- Any domains that surprised you with more weight than expected?
- Any syntax gotchas or "trap" questions I should watch out for?
- Tips for managing the 90-minute time limit across 45 questions?
Any advice is hugely appreciated โ especially from folks who took the exam in the last few months with the updated Oct 2025 version. ๐
Thanks!
