I cleared IBM-486 last week with 77% and now an ICED.

The exam was not very difficult, but we need to understand Larmen's concepts and Fowlers statements.

My preparation time was 1.5 months and I read Larmens and Fowlers books at least 3-4 times to get strong hold on the topics and concepts.

There were not many questions on Design patterns.

I also used, MZ's quizzes, Bala's notes and exams, cfw exams ,ICE exam and EZ notes.

I felt the sample test was easier than the real test, might be because of reading those questions many times.

Thanks to all the ranchers for all your help.Thanks MZ for your quizzes .Thanks Patrick for your positive encouragement to not be scared about the exam.

I am very happy that I would be getting a certificate FINALLY.

Thanks all !!

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
