My Experience
This is really a good Salesforce certification exam so far, The exam mostly focuses on Profiles, Roles, OWD, Sharing Rules, Salesforce licenses, Permission Sets, Apex Managed Sharing, Record Locking related issues, Territory Management, Communities, Account & Opportunity Teams. If you have work on these topics than it is very easy to clear this one.
