Hi all,

Today, I failed SCDJWS with 60%. I am not sure what went wrong but I was preparing for this exam since last one and half month and since last month or so I was consistently scored more than 80% in whizlabs examp simulator.

I am planning to give this exam after two to three weeks as per SUN's retake policy. but I am really not feeling well because I was so confident before exam.

"Do I need to buy another voucher or same would work after two week"?

My scorecard

XML WebService Standard ---------40%
SOAP 1.1 WebService standard -------66%
Describing and Publishing (WSDL & UDDI) ---- 57%
JAX-RPC-----57%
SOAP and XML Processing APIS(JAXP,JAXB and SAAJ)----75%
JAXR----------50%
J2EE WebServices -------71%
Security-------37%
Developing Web Services-------66%
General Desing and Architechture-----66%
Endpoint design and Architechture------80%

Can someone guid,how and from where i should start my preparation again, I have really very less time because I am planning to give this exam in next two week only.

It is sad when we get a result we didn't expect... but don't give up: focus on the topics you had lower scores: XML, JAXR, Security,...

Hi a shukla,

It is very sad to know about your result. I know this is not an easy exam to pass. This is the toughest exam as I have ever faced after SCJP. Did you study Mikalai Zaikin's notes and mock exams? If not,then go through those as those have been written and organized very nicely. Google some mock exams on scdjws. I am sure you will find some suitable site to study.

Good luck for your preparations!!!

I am really so to hear your case. I too purchased whizlabs kit for the same purpose. I hope the same doesn't happen to me next month.
In your place I would practise harder and crack it. Good Luck

whizlabs is a pille of rubish, I also bought it and if you know a little bit about what you are studying you should be able to pick up the mistakes there are in there, LOADS of them, I tried to contact the b* to hear what they had to say about it, they didn't even bothered replying my msgs, which were a few dozen, at least one for each question

so, from my view, study using that crap, you are heading for a disaster.

You can claim your money back from Whizlabs. That's what they advertise.

Whizlabs tools are full of mistakes.

I bought it to study SCBCD when i was about to take the exam and i found lots of mistakes in questions and in program (some exams had bugs that prevented to be corrected). I realised after 3-4 hours it wasnt worth to study with that.

I sent them a couple of emails complaining about a couple of bugs (questions and program bugs).They didnt even answer.

I am preparing for SCDJWS and found only Whizlab available as exam simulator.

Please let me know if any other exam simulator available in market besides Whizlab.

Thanks for your help in advance.

The information from that link is incorrect, it's an infamous Sun's copy-and-paste action.
I don't know why nobody corrects it.

I reported it to the sun. If the information is incorrect, it must be updated soon.

your largest mistake was trusting Whizlab (it's a pille of rubish, full of mistakes)
when I got in contact with them complaing and pointing out issues I found, not a single one bothered to reply ... was the single time they saw my money and I can tell it was the last

and if anyone goes to the exam using that crap without picking up on the mistakes they have, is probably not ready for it anyway
