My ideal Java specialist would have all three certifications. SCJP should show that he/she has studied the language and standard API features of Java; SCJD should show that he/she can actually produce working software to an agreed standard, and SCJA should show that he/she understands the place of Java in the wider context of enterprise systems, and can suggest workable. complete solutions.
===================================<br />Fear not, God know the best.<br />SCJP2 91%<br />SCWCD 89%<br />SCJD2 92% (143/155 pts)<br />SCEA Part I (89%)
