They cover all 4 domains of the DVA-C02 exam: Development with AWS Services (32%), Security (26%), Deployment (24%), Troubleshooting and Optimization (18%). Each section is weighted in the same proportion as the real exam, so nothing high-value is buried.
The DVA-C02 exam has approximately 65 questions in 130 minutes, with a passing score of 720. Use the practice questions to confirm you are consistently above that line before booking the real exam.
Study in short, spaced sessions: a card you have not seen for two days is worth more than a card you reread immediately. Filter by Development with AWS Services first, then mix domains so you practise identifying the topic before recalling the definition.
They are the recall half of preparation. Pair the cards with practice questions and at least one timed practice exam — candidates who only review cards usually recognise terms but miss scenario questions.
