How This Compares With Typical Approaches

As you know, many candidates give 3 to 4 months or more for SAP certification. At NextNow, we compress these months and give the exam training in just 30 days, but only by increasing intensity.

• Typical preparation: gradual approach, taking about 8–12 weeks.
• 30-day plan: fast track, with daily discipline and sacrifice as a must.
• Result: If at the end of Week 3 you can regularly achieve 80%+ in mock tests, you are very likely to succeed. A suggestion from one of the students goes like this:

“When, after a couple of days, you are able to get consistently over 80 % correct in your questions … you should book the certification.”

Essential Study Tips for the Final Month

• Plan and set up a time table for your study blocks every day: set aside no less than 2-3 hours for your study and also place a time for revision apart.
• Follow the official SAP Learning Journeys because these are the ones that support the exam directly.
• Practice the mock exams during the real exam conditions, that is, (180 mins, 80 questions), in order to build up your endurance and get used to the exam.
• Error analysis should be done very thoroughly: After every mock, not only the wrong answers but also the reasons behind getting them wrong should be revisited.
• Give special attention to multi-select questions: Multi-select types, where you have to select 2 or more correct answers, are very frequently appearing in the SAP exams.
• Be regular: A gap in daily study can bring to a halt a 30-day sprint.
• Get enough sleep and be healthy: Mental sharpness is a significant factor.
• Register for an exam date in advance, given that one would have gone through with or without one.

FAQs

Can I really get ready for my SAP certification in 30 days while based in Canada?
Certainly, it’s a tough journey, but it is possible. By utilizing the appropriate daily plan along with resources, several learners in Canada are able to do so. To give an example, the costs for an exam attempt in Canada range from CAD 500 to 1,000, depending on the module. If you put in 2-3 hours daily to go through the core syllabus, practice tests and effective revision, then 30 days is a doable option.

Which module should I pick here in Canada — MM, SD, HANA or FICO?
Which path you choose is determined by your previous experience and future aim:

• If you are working in purchasing or logistics, SAP MM is the right choice.
• Should marketing goods and distribution be your interest, SAP SD is your right choice.
• If your work is to deal with data and IT, SAP HANA is a very good choice.
• If finance or accounting is your previous background, SAP FICO is a sensible choice.
• Taking into consideration that Canadian companies prefer such candidates with versatile skills, it is advised to select the module you like most and that is in demand in the local job market.

How much does the exam cost in Canada, and what about retakes?
In Canada, the prices for SAP certification exam in Canada is CAD 280 and CAD 300, which depends on the module and the currency exchange rates. For retakes, you will have to purchase either another voucher for the attempt or a subscription that allows multiple attempts.

Do I really need mock exams and system access even in Canada?
Yes – totally. The experience of doing things with your own hands (which is very important, especially for modules like SAP HANA or FICO) gives you trust. The training providers from Canada usually provide access to a sandbox or labs. Practice tests make you accustomed to the question style and time limitation, which is very important for passing.
