Hi everyone,

I'm currently preparing for the Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer (ACE) certification and had a few questions for those who've already taken the exam.

- Is the exam entirely multiple-choice/multiple-select questions, or are there any hands-on labs or practical tasks during the exam?

- If I take the exam in the online proctored mode, how strict is it? Is it even possible to get any kind of help during the exam, or is that completely monitored?

- What are the best resources you used to prepare? I'm looking for good practice tests, study guides, YouTube channels, or any other materials that closely match the actual exam.

I'd really appreciate any tips or advice from people who have recently passed the ACE exam.

Thanks in advance!

This is my first time posting in this group . I plead on my feet if anyone has a coupon for Professional Machine Learning Engineer Please help me out . I understand it not pricey , but as an student it is out of my pocket . I know gear and other Google programs but they are of no help .

I am really grateful for your patience and help . I am ready to pay but at a discounted price.

Please help me guys 🙏

Hey guys,

I scheduled my PMLE exam a while back and only noticed after booking that Google updated the exam guide on June 1, 2026 (I started studying a couple of months before the update).

Has anyone taken the exam recently, after this new update? Can you explain to me what changed, and what new topics I should focus my study?

Thanks.

Is anyone here working with GCP? I'm a beginner and facing a lot of issues. If someone has experience please comment or dm. Thanks

Hi, I am planning to do the ACE cert. My plan is to complete the first the Google Skills ACE Path and then buy and take the practice tests from TutorialDojo. Is that enough to prepare for the exam?
