A good example of this is AWS’ own Cloud Practitioner curriculum course topics versus what actually appears in the Cloud Practitioner exam. I scored a 100% on the knowledge check at the end of the course but a 70% on the proctored exam after missing quite a few questions about services that weren’t discussed in the study materials because the questions were covering comparatively new AWS services compared to what was in their own training material.

I've heard that it goes the other way, too: If you actually use AWS day-to-day, then you can have trouble on the exams because the exam is months out of date. So ex. if a service has some shortcoming and then they fix it, the exam might still expect you to say that the service can't do X.
