For my second try, I used the official SAS resources along with practice questions from SkillCert_Exams to strengthen weak areas and get familiar with the exam format. That mix worked well, and I managed to score 86%. The experience showed me how persistence and the right combination of resources can make a big difference.</P> Fri, 19 Sep 2025 10:38:54 GMT jakeson 2025-09-19T10:38:54Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/SAS-Institute-A00-231-Exam-Experience/m-p/975361#M378089 <P>I didn’t pass on my first attempt, which was discouraging, but it pushed me to change my strategy.
