Definitely go through the course on A Cloud Guru, do the practice quizzes until you are scoring 90%+ consistently. Do not memorize the answers, understand the questions and why the correct answer is correct. Next do the practice exams until 90%+ as well. Then goto linuxacademy.com/amazon-web-servic... and do all the practice sinerios you can related to SAA certification.

That got me a passing score on the first try. Good Luck and let me know how you do!
