Hi,

I wish to take the SCJP, certification as soon as possible, and wanted to know , what is the best way to start the prep for the same, like which books to refer(which are the BEST ones!!!), where i can pick some practise tests(mock tests), or any other things I need to know in order to prepare for the certification in a better way.

Thanks,

Ani
