Hi Sunita,

I have cleared AEM Architect certification during Mar 2020. Below are some of the critical topics to be prepared. Most of the questions are scenario based only. If you have hands-on experience in AEM 6.x for atleast 2-3 years with the below topics prepared, then you will be able to clear the certification.

@sunitac93243435 Just go through all the topics covered in https://helpx.adobe.com/support/experience-manager/6-4.html. Believe me, It is the only genuine and best study material to clear all the Adobe exams. also,  one thing I would like to share, daily practice and real-world problems occurred in ongoing projects will help you achieve any kind of Adobe expert certification whether its dev, lead, DevOps or architect.

The architect exam is more situational questions. You need to deeply understand AEM to pass this one. 

 

Pro-Googling tip though .. If you specify the filetype you can get very specific results back that may or may not include 10 of the exam questions.
