This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
Hi everyone,....... I took the SCJP exam, and passed with a 64%.Though I just barely made it, I can't wait to see my boss's face tomorrow, when I hand her a copy of my results. She never did believe I would pass, especially when my field of study is Business Administration, and Java is my first programming language!! I wish to thank all those who have participated directly or indirectly in helping me pass the exam. Thomas Paul, you have been a great help, you really did clear some mis-conceptions I had on the fundermentals of Java Programming. ************* Tips on passing the exam ************* 1) Buy a good programming book, I recommend the Java 2 Exam Cram, Second Edition by Bill Brogden ^^^ about 3-4 questions from his book appeared on the exam^^^ 2) Do lots of mock exams and practise code. ^^^playing around with java codes helps, majority of the questions asked aren't that complex, it only tests your basic knowledge on Java. JQPLUS will definitely help. I think, about 7-8 questions were from JQPLUS^^^ 3) Make sure you visit Javaranch with any questions you may have or at least, view other people questions and try answering them by yourself. ^^^Javaranch helps re-assure your know-how in java or will clear mis-conceptions on the principles of java^^^
