Don't worry my dear friend, may be you failed because you have to score in 90 ies(above 90), now you have full chance to score good marks in SCWCD.

Identify your weak points , memorize more key points , practice more & more.
keep asking questions on javaranch, if you can't find the solution to any problem(javaranch is itself is a key to pass any exam belonging to Java).

Hi David,

Welcome to Javaranch! Can you tell us how you prepared for the exam? What book did you use? Did you do mock exams? Did you do a lot of coding ?

The one thing I always advise is to buy the Enthuware mock exams because the way they ask questions is simular to the real exam. Also the difficulty level is simular. Apart from those advantages they give explanations to the questions you had wrong.

Don't give up!

Regards,
Frits

So the percentage to pass the exam is higher than the SCJP (58%).

Are there only multiple choice questions?

Congratulations!

David, for all those who have failed can you explain how much more time you needed and what you did extra apart from doing Enthuware mock exams?

Thanks and enjoy you great score!
