I am new to the forum. I am looking forward for getting certified in OCPJP 8. I have background knowledge of 1.6.
Can someone suggest me, what is the best way to prepare for OCPJP8? Is the associate certificate mandatory for java 8 or we can directly prepare for java 8?
What is the best book available in the market to date?
Digging this one up in order not to create new one. I currently hold OCPJP 6 cert (passed about year ago) thinking about getting OCPJP 8 myself. I can see that the "method of choice" is upgrading exam (1Z0-813) but I was thinking of going full-exam way (1Z0-809). Does this mean I have to get OCA first then go OCP? I'd like to pass just one of those, does this leave me with 1Z0-813 upgrade only?
