Passed Ex280

[sharath_vutpala]

Hello all,

I am glad to share with the community that today I cleared the EX280 - Red Hat Certified OpenShift Administrator Exam ( Version 4.12 )

After failing my first attempt, I spent more time covering the topics that I missed earlier and did all the guided exercises available in the handbook. I would like to share a few points which helped me to pass the exam. 

• Questions are covered according to the objectives mentioned the exam description here https://www.redhat.com/en/services/training/red-hat-certified-openshift-administrator-exam?section=o...
• Some of these topics are not covered in the Handbook for version 4.12, make sure to revise the missing topics
• Since Offline Documentation is available during the exam, get used to the documentation so that we can easily navigate

Hope this will help someone who is preparing for the exam. Best of luck!

Thanks.

Hi @sharath_vutpala 

What is the time given for exam ? is it full of objetive type questions ?

Can you brief your below statement ?

"Since Offline Documentation is available during the exam, get used to the documentation so that we can easily navigate".

Hi @Sri_Krishna 

The exam duration is 3 Hours. It is a practical exam, you have to solve problems as we do in real-time. For example, you may be asked to create an OpenShift resource in the cluster. 

During the exam, we have access to Offline Documentation. But, it's very vast and it takes too much time to search for a particular topic. So, I would suggest going through the sections of the documentation before the example. For example, if you get a question related to a Networking component in the exam, you should be able to directly navigate to that section to save your time. 

Hope this answers your question. 

Thanks!
