Before you panic - the exams have not been changed - just the guides!
As of early September 2021, all the AWS Certification Exam Guides (pdf) seem to have been updated to a new template and include a lot more useful information. Scroll below for high level changes and links to these guides.
Key changes
Lets review the very popular AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate
(SAA-C02) to pickup on two new sections of importance.
"Out of scope" section
Yay - this sets the tone for where you draw the line on studying and is useful to avoid "over studying" or panicking that you need to know coding when the course does not test you on that.
In-scope Services listed
There is also a comprehensive list of what is considered within scope - previously these were just fairly high level domains but this is a lot more comprehensive list of services you are required to know! (Its not exhaustive but is more than enough to ensure sufficient coverage when studying).
Links to the Exam Guides!

These are not tips if they are copied exam questions - they are dumps as in the site's name.
Dumps devalue certifications and anyone using them or promoting should be ashamed of themselves in trying to circumvent the learning process by cheating.

I am reporting this site to Amazon Certification team.
I've recently passed the SAP-C01 exam. I practiced with these AWS practice test SAP-C01 questions. These practice questions cover the SAP-C02 domains too, found very helpful to understand the SAP-C02 concepts. Highly recommend for both versions of exam.
Thanks for sharing this. It helps !!
