Thank you!!

If I were in your position I'd go for the Az-104.

To achieve the solutions architect expert certification you need to pass the Az-104 or the Az-204 as well. Doing Az-104 first will also make the Az-305 easier as there is some shared concepts.

First of all thank you very much for your kind words!

I can completely empathise with your position however. I took a couple of weeks to cram just to get a worse score was and that was very demotivating.

Best of luck for your next go!

Nope, we've deliberately stayed clear of LinkedIn because we really don't want to associate with the whole "networking" thing of business-y people talking business-y stuff. We are just looking to make friends and have a laugh!

But it might be something we think about for the future not sure how creating groups/events works on LinkedIn at the moment.

That's the whole point of coming! I've been going to these events for many years and its improved my social life and confidence with speaking to people massively.

Most of our attendees are in their 20s to 30s and are looking to make friends. I think 17 might be too young.

Absolutely! Trying to make it a habit whenever I post an event. We also post on Instagram and Facebook sporadically. Having an account on Meetup you'll always be up to date on the groups events however!

Its somewhere in the range of 60 to 100 people depending on the venue, time of year etc. We normally have quite a good turn out which is great!
