Hi
i just finished the Diagnostic Exam and only scored 40% i kinda rushed the answers, needing only 1.5 hours

i wanted to take the real exam on the 19th of may, but i think i might be to far behind until then

what do you think ?

Examlab is a bit on the tougher side- Its for you to prepare for the worst But dont worry its not going to be that worst. Take sometime to solve the Examlab papers and then analyse the answers. You will learn a lot from this approach.

Passing examlab is really tough, a score above 50 is acceptable IMO I myself got 56% in the final exam of Examlab and got 98% in the real exam...

Hey Torsten,


Dont worry!!! I gave my Scjp on 28th of this month.The night before i took Devakas exam and got around 58%.Trust me i was sure i would fail the real exam .But i managed a 90%. Dont worry....The actual exam questions are a whole lot easier. I am telling from my personal experience.Besides you have yet a long time to go. I think may be you should take the diagonistic tests once again. That help you kno where you need to focus.....


P.S: My only moral booster after that 58 % was the popup screen that said, dont worry you will surely pass the exam.

I have been studying besides work since December 2010, but its really tough since i have to learn other Api´s mostly from PHP at work

I´ll let you know how it went, even if i fail :P
