Hey Community -
Let’s start off the Group by sharing some of the ways you use which best helps you prepare for the VMCE.
I’ll start:
For me, first and foremost, I follow the VMCE Exam Guide. From there, I go through the vSphere User Guide from top to bottom….yep, you read that correctly, from top to bottom...and read through only what I call the high-level sections of it for those sections I’m least familiar with.
What is a “high-level” section? They are the sections which generally start with “About <topic/section>”, for example, About Backup, or How Replication Works, etc. I then go on to the Limitations and Considerations of each section. I rarely go through the actual install/implementation steps (these are what I consider “deep-level” sections), unless I’ve never done so in my environment or lab.
After I do the above, I then go through and skim through sections of the Guide I am most familiar with just for review as there are generally quite a few detailed things I’ve forgotten.
Last, after I do the above, I go back through and do the same thing, but this last read-through I take notes on items I have trouble remembering. Writing things down helps me remember most. I may also look at a configuration or setup process within the Console so I can also get a visual of the information I’m studying. And then when I’m done, I try to find supported study questions to see if there are any areas I lack expertise and knowledge...and there always is. I generally use questions devised by

And that’s how I study. What about you all?
