You are only just getting into the field? Take a look at the Architect role description. The Architect needs to have some maturity and experience. If you don't have that experience you are likely to be better off with the SCJD, and taking the web developer exam as soon as it's come out.
Having said that, it doesn't hurt to study the SCEA material anyway. It gives you a very useful bird's eye view.
