Learning AWT

I think I'm ready to take the certification exam, except for the fact that I don't know much AWT. I have two certification books that cover the topic, but the coverage seems so superficial. On some mock exams that I've taken, I've had up 10 questions on AWT. Is this realistic? More importantly, where can I get more information on AWT? I haven't been able to find a book on it. Everything out there covers Swing (and rightfully so).
Thanks,
PS I've been hearing about a java beta test. Does anyone know what this is? Thanks.

There are not that many questions on the AWT on the Sun Certification exam. The coverage in Roberts and Heller's book is enough...

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
