Congrats Mario for clearing the hardle!
Regarding your time problem i have to say that one who is well prepared will find that the questions come in a specific format to test specific area of knowledge....so you don't have to read all the questions when you are finding a compiler error at the 3rd or 4th line! Thus many people here completed the exam having more than half-an hour. This is just to inspire other would-be SCJPs that if you have had enough hands-on coding time, you will face no problem with the time. Its true that a few questions may take more than 5 mins each....you have to save time from the other average questions.
In all, i have analyzed the question format of
SCJP,SCWCD,MCSD,MCSE,MCDBA,OCP-DBA and found SCJP the most code-oriented and in my opine the most standard exam! One should feel really happy to clear the exam....
What are you planning next, dear friend?
