Just passed with score of 86%. Was aiming for 90% but nevermind. I actually found a couple of the questions badly worded and English is my native langauge and I was an English teacher!! It was difficult to understand as there was no punctuation in a question that without punctuation could be interpreted in two ways!!
Still I would like to thank everyone here. Although I did not post much at all I read almost religiously every new comment etc. I have taught myself Java using the internet etc as my only resource. I am currently living in Chile and it has proved near impossible to either do the exam or buy books to help (the postal system mysteriously seems to lose anything more important than a postcard!!)
ANyway breakdown
I had about 3-4 questions IO no socket question
fill in the space questions were extremely clear as to what was needed.
Lots of Java fundamentals, overriding, overloading
3 - 4 exceptions
2 gridbag - very difficult one of them (you really need to know what each field does)
awt questions were clear
lots on == versus equals
thats all I can remember for now my mind is a blur!!!
