Hello friend
Instead of wasting money in buying too many books. I would better suggest start reading HFSJ and side by side practise concpets in tomcat

Follwo the specs and blueprints...that would be enuf. If you buy too many books, u will get confused and following things.

Better to follow the HFSJ guide and refer specs.

How do you like the Bridgewater book Sandhya? Is it worth the buy..I am planning to buy the book but there was just one review on Amazon so I am still debating.

Thanks.

Praveen ,so far I have read only a few chapters of the Bridgewater book.It is very good and definitely worth buying.I especially like the two minute drill and self test at the end of each chapter.

Thanks for the positive review Sandhya. I bought it from Amazon. I hope to take the exam in a few weeks from now.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
