I recently passed new version of AWS Solutions Architect – Associate exam released in Feb 2018.
I would like to post some details and share my experience.

Number of questions: 65
Time: 130 min
Cost: $150

There were questions on following topics:

• ELB (Elastic Load Balancers)
• Autoscaling
• Networking topics (Subnets, Internet Gateways, VPC)
• Storage solutions (EBS, EFS, S3)
• Databases (RDS, DynamoDB, Redshift)
• Lambda

My preparation

• Enrolled in some certification courses on Udemy:
  • https://www.udemy.com/aws-certified-solutions-architect-associate/
  • https://www.udemy.com/aws-certified-solutions-architect-guide-question-bank-i/
• Went through FAQs and Whitepapers on AWS website for various topics
• Practiced a few tests on following sites:
  • AWS Certification site: aws.training ($20)
  • Whizlabs Free Tests

My experience

• The time given was plenty
• Overall, the exam is not very easy
• Need to go through lot of documentation and practice on AWS
• Some experience also would help though not necessary

Hope you find this information helpful.

Good luck!
