Dear Friends !
What is the best way to prepare for the Test 286. I am planning to take Test 286, 287 and 285.
Kindly provide me some inputs.
I am comfortable with J2EE 1.4.
Thanks,
Bala

does anyone know where and how to buy vouchers for IBM certification exam?
and are they for VUE and Prometric because the exams seem to be very expensive ,more expensive than Sun and Microsoft's.
are the voucher cheaper?

The vouchers are how you purchase the right to take the exam - they're the prices you're seeing, so the answer to your question is no, "vouchers" aren't cheaper. And to answer the question - I know that IBM uses Prometric, having gone that route in the past. I seem to recall they also use VUE, but with a separate set of vouchers.

Hi,
For the Test 286, it says that you should have a good working knowledge of the
IBM WebSphere Studio Site Developer V5 product, IBM WebSphere Studio Application Developer, Integration Edition, V5,
or IBM WebSphere Studio, Enterprise Edition, V5.
Study the product documentation, including the on-line help and tutorials.
I have a question, for the exam 286 ,if you have knowlege about Websphere Studio Application Developer, V5.0, is it sufficient to clear the test or you should know the integrated version 5.0 also.

Thanks in advance
Gothamk
