Level 1 Credential Exam - PLEASE HELP!!!

Question

Hi everyone, 
 I am a newbie to Appian and will have to sit Level 1 Credential Exam next Thursday. 
 Although I have read information on the exam but it still got me confused. So I really want to ask some questions in order to best prepare for the exam next week. So please help me if you have done it before. 
 
 What courses on Appian Academy should I take to cover all 14 topics in the exam? (since there are many courses on the academy but I guess just some are related to level 1 exam) 
 Is there any good mock exam and if so, where could I find it? (Actually I found a related answer but the links provided are not working) 
 What are other resources or materials that I should also have a look at? 
 Please add any tips that you find useful for the exam preparation 
 
 I really appreciate your time for answering these questions. Thank you guys so much! 
 Cheers!

One point of clarification - the Level 1 credential is more similar to the old Designer credential than the old Analyst credential. That means that Level 1 contains fewer questions on Analyst, Business, and Agile; it has more questions on how to develop applications in Appian. 
 If you have already watched many of the videos, I'd recommend the Developer Skills Practice as a good place to start. If there are any exercises that you struggle with, that helps you to identify which courses to focus on. 
 Good luck!

Vivian, 
 
 I would take the "Analyst and Business" and "Appian Low-Code Developer" courses on the Role-Based Paths section of Appian Academy. 
 There are mock questions throughout the learning paths, but there is no mock exam as far as I'm aware. 
 I would suggest studying up on Agile practices/terms, object level security, News, and basic development functions and capabilities. 
 
 Good luck!

Hello Vivian, 
 I agree with Ashwin suggestion on the same. Thoroughly go through videos and in addition to videos read the same topic in documentation as well. Mock questions and agile terminology are quite important especially roles and milestones. 
 Good luck :)

Two things that surprised me were the number of questions regarding Agile (specifically SCRUM) terminology, and how many questions revolved around quick apps. I would also study up on quick apps, as there were enough questions for it to make a real difference. 
 I hope that you've built an application or two. I also have a recommendation if you are allowed to have appian designer, a test expression rule, and a process modeler open in another tab / window to test things out.
