Could anyone please give me some information regarding SCEA Part2. I think my mail got unnoticed because of holiday mood everywhere. I want to start the next step as soon as possible. Do I need to contact Sun education people for assignment for Part2? Please send any link that describes all the subsequent steps clearly. Thanks Vibha.

Steps: 1. Purchase $250 voucher from SUN 2. Log in to certmanager.net/sun and dnload assignment 3. Do the assignment (Poseidon CE is a good free UML tool from gentleware.com) 4. JAR your assignment 5. Try uploading to certmanager.net/sun (In all probability, you wont be able to and will have to contact prometric or who2contact@central.sun.com) 6. Submit assignment 7. Purchase $150 voucher from SUN 8. Contact Prometric (2test.com) for scheduling part III. 9. Take Part III 10. Buy yourself a drink 11. Think abt next certification! HTH.

Thanks Sanjay. How much time does it typically take to complete Part II? Regards, Vibha.

Vibha, It took me abt 2 weeks of concentrated effort (3-5 hrs / day)... I've basically been hearing 2 different approaches...Some people do very little (1 class, 1 component, 5-6 sequence diagrams) and just explain their assumptions. One of my ex-colleagues got 98% with that approach. My approach, on the other hand has been very comprehensive and detailed. (I am still waiting for the results.) I had a bunch of class diagrams, 1 deployment/component and abt 16 sequence diagrams. So obviously it took me longer. Depending on how you plan to go abt it, it can be done in around 1-2 weeks...If you have a toddler to look after, may be a month! HTH.

What kind of requirement do you receive in order to do the part II ? In RUP, you need one sequence diagram for each flow of events, but does Sun give you a use-case specification with one flow of events ? thanxs, Roger

Thanks Sanjay, I have registered for the SCEA -2 today and would be able to download the assignment in a day or two. All the best for your result. Do share your experience with part2 and 3 with us when you get your result. Thanks Vibha.

Hi Vibha, Congrats on clearing the exam.!!! I am preparing for SCEA Part 1. I have worked on Servlets and JSPs but I dont have any previous experience in EJBs. I would like to know if you used anything else other than the book Enterprise Javabeans by Richard Monson-Haefel? Other than EJBs what are the other topics that Part 1 tests on? Thanks in advance.
