Hey @Judi Khan and welcome to the Community!  I'm sure you've probably already checked out all the material provide in Atlassian University here:  https://university.atlassian.com/student/page/832603-acp-120-jira-administration-for-cloud-exam?sid_i=0 , including the free exam success course (link provided in that URL as well).   These are pretty solid resources.  Have you had much practical experience managing a Cloud instance?  If so, I imagine you're probably more prepared than you think.  If not, play around with it as much as you can to familiarize yourself with it prior to taking the exam.  HTH

Hi @Judi Khan ,

have you tried to search here in the community forum? There are a lot of discussions / questions / info about this exam.

I passed it in January. Some of the questions require a deep knowledge of Jira, it is important to understand and be familiar with all the topics and also have enough hands-on experience.

During the prepation I also took two Udemy tests. They were helpful.

Hi @Hana Kučerová -

Is been a bit now since you posted this, but I wanted to check with you to see if you remember

With the 2 udemy tests - did you find them helpful as:
1. It helped you understand at a deeper level the capability, or
2. Where the questions in the exam similar in nature, or
3. A bit of both? 

I'm prepping for 120 now and found the 2nd udemy test more complicated than the first, and compared with the sample questions from atlassian and trying to gage my readiness based on that.

Hi @Sarah James ,

the Udemy tests seemed complicated than the Atlassian exam for me.

I believe if you were able to pass both Udemy tests, you should be able to pass the Atlassian exam.

Thanks @Hana Kučerová 

That has definitely been my experience so far, wasn't sure if I was still a fair bit to go to being ready with my experience with the Udemy exams or not. Cheers!

Hi @Judi Khan 

Best of luck with your preparation! I took the ACP-120 last year and want to highlight that the questions can be quite challenging. It's important to gain practical experience, especially with permission management, as it really helps. As @Hana Kučerová  suggested, the Udemy tests are also beneficial for preparation, along with courses from Atlassian University!

Cheers

Ajay
