hi,

I got 56% (fail) in the first K&b mock exam which came along with the book. I have my exam next week. Will i pass in the scjp exam looking at this mock exam score ? How should i continue my study in order to score better.
Thanks

The score isn't that bad, but just to be sure, do couple more different mock exams from different places.

Hi Dev,

Your mock exam score is very close to the pass cutoff, so you can definitely still make it if you use your remaining week wisely. I suggest that you focus your efforts on the topics you're weak in (as identified in the mock exam result report).

Also, you may want to purchase the Whizlabs SCJP 5.0 preparation kit. Their mock exams are top notch, and are generally regarded to be a bit harder than the real exam. If you train yourself well on the Whizlabs exams, you'll probably make it through the SCJP without much difficulty.

Best of luck!

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.
