My SCJA exam experience

I already posted on the Results forum that I passed this exam with 100% score.

Thanks to :

1) Javaranch SCJA forum
2) Cameron

Though I didn't have your book, you were always helpful.
3) My friends Somdip Sen and Fred Kalombo who were preparing along with me.
4) My other friends who were / were not preparing for SCJA, but supported me.
5) others if I missed anyone.

I got 100% and I finished the exam within 10 min almost. The secret to 100% score is I am preparing for SCJP too. So, It was very easy to answer those questions. I took very less time because I was very unhappy with the things were going in my personal life. So, I never thought of reviewing those questions even once.

Here's my experience

J2EE and J2ME : They really want you to know the high level overview.

UML : 10 page pdf is sufficient

Java Syntax: I studied from SCJP guide by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates since was(am in fact) preparing for SCJP too.

Make your concepts clear. Understanding the exam objectives will help you a lot. Follow the objectives properly. Tell me if you have any questions. Rather than mailing, post the questions here. Let everyone read them. I will be moving to SCJP forum now. I will still try to be active here. It's a nice forum really

I forgot to say one thing. I didn't have Cameron's book. Because I don't have Credit card. And also, because I would have to pay in foreign currency, I couldn't manage it. But hang on, if you can manage to buy that book, get that. Yes. get that. That will ease the process a lot I think.

Congratulations!

And thanks for the great feedback. I'm glad my help could play a small part in your success!

what book you suggest from Cameron???

Just follow my signature links, and you'll find my SCJA Study Guide, and the SCJA Questions guide. They've been extremely helpful in helping Greenhorns get certified.
