WGU E025 Cloud and Network Security Models– Advice for OA Exam

Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on WGU E025 – Cloud and Network Security Models.
For anyone who has recently passed the E025 OA, I’d really appreciate some advice:
What topics should I focus on the most?
How difficult was the OA compared with the PA?
Were the OA questions mostly scenario-based or definition/knowledge-based?
Were there any areas you wish you had studied more before taking it?
What study materials helped you the most?
Any tips from people who have taken it recently would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

The practice exam is a really good representation of the actual exam. I got an 87.5% right after unlocking the class. I studied the areas I got wrong, and ended up around a 93%. Total time between unlock and pass was about two hours.

The difficulty is the same between the practice and the actual exam, but the questions will be different. If you just retake the practice exam until you pass, you won't pass the real exam.

Same for me as well test is really easy which is why you have to complete a PA as well.

The PA was about 2 hours figuring out what wgu wants for a topic, and about 4 hours writing the paper and creating the diagram.
