How I prepared for Salesforce certified app builder exam
Hi All,
On 31st August 2018 I cleared Salesforce Platform
App Builder Certification exam. And as soon I posted on social media I started
to get question regarding the preparation that how I prepared, So finally I am
writing my all the steps I took for this certification. Before starting I would
like say a big thanks to my collegues and mentors(Aslam Bari , Ranu Bari , Naveen Soni) for motivating and guiding me
for this exam.
When I decided for App builder exam, I got a very first
question asked from my friends that, you are a developer then why you are going for this certification. You must go for Platform Developer2.So here is answer for
all.
As we all know salesforce provides so many out of the box No Code tools, using them we can complete so many business requirements.We do not need
to write a single line of code. So being a developer I should be having
knowledge about these tools,becasuse it can save my efforts and increase my work efficiancy, and I was having that much knowledge. Then Why
should not I appear in exam and get my skills certified from the salesforce. It
was not wasting money/time. It was an investment so I did it.
So let’s start talking about exam. I took around 25 to 30
Hours in preparation of exam.
First of all I took a deep review of official exam guide,
and analysis about which section cover higher ratio of question in exam and how
much I am confident in that. So if you see the exam guide you will see that
these are the topic which covers more then 70% of exam. And to clear exam you
need only 63%.
Data Modeling And Management(20%)
Security(10%)
Business Logic And Process Automation(27%)
User Interface (14%)
You need to focus more on these topics. Most the question
for these topics will be scenario based question. While answering the question
remind the consideration for every option. It will help you to eliminate the
answer so you can select the right answers.
There are some another topic also
Salesforce
fundamentals(8%) : In this section very basic questions would be there,
Such as a scenario will be given and you need to identify that should you
search for a solution on appexchange.
Social (3%): 1 or
2 question would be in exam.
Reporting(5%): Read
about the report types and standard reports available. Which reports are
available for chart.
Mobile(5%): Read
about the customize saleforce mobile app. Such as navigation, buttons on detail
page etc.
App Devlopment(8%): Difference
between managed and unmanaged package, when to use change set and when to use
other migration tools.
Here are some other steps which I took.
- For Topic wise study there is an official trailmix is available by trailhead itself.While reading from trailhead do focus on the example given in it. In the end of every module you will find some resource, so if you want to read more then should go for them. Some of them were good to read. https://trailhead.salesforce.com/users/00550000006yDdKAAU/trailmixes/prepare-for-your-salesforce-platform-app-builder-credential#
- There is an article available about whichautomation tool should I use. It would be really helpful for the Process automation topic.
- Also read about the consideration about process automation tools, lookup/master detail fields, formula fields , roll upsummary. So you can understand when not to use them.
- Here are some links for practice exam and sample questions. Do not stick on answer of them. If you have any confusion, follow the salesforce standard help articles or try to implement that in your developer org.

- I also used an mobile app cram which was suggested by one of my Salesforce Ohana friend Bharat Kumar. On this app you will find flash cards , which are helpful for revising the topics. I used to do practice on this app before going to bed. And it was really helpful. I would like to say a big thank to Bharat for letting me know about this app.
