Let's just say that if you don't know Java 5.0 stuff, your chances to pass are very slim.

Well, I did the exam today, and I think there were almost 10 questions on generics. (or that included generics code..)

There were also 3 questions on classpaths /jars etc, and 3 on cohesion, coupling/is-a/has-a etc. Also a question about Queues. A couple on regex and formatter. One question of DateFormat and another on Locale. At least two or three questions on java.io classes. So you need to know the new topics very well to get through the exam!

Thanks everyone for the details..

Keep pouring in with what break up of java 5 related questions we are getting in the real exam.

The exam covers each and every sub objective.So you cant leave out one objective thinking thats not important.I think division of questions is based on number of sub objectives the main objective has.
