I just want to thank everyone who helped me to pass my SCJD certification. I could not have done without this website and everyone who took their valuable time to reply all my questions.

Special thank you to Roberto Perillo, Andrew Monkhouse, Alberto Ridolfi , Jeffry Kristianto Yanuar, Alexandre Baldo,Roel De Nijs, Cless Alvein K. Tisang , Bod Toki, Christian combarel, Mohamed sulibi for replying my post.

I took the exam while working full time and spent many hours in the library over the weekends. I am glad I did because hard work does pay off.

For those who are taking the exam right now, I just want to say good luck and everything you need to know is on this web site and in Andrew Monkhouse book.

SCJP, SCJD in progress .... (from 1/8/2007 till now)

My choice document is 20kb. I do not think the size matters. In my case I have put everything that I remember about my choice.

Example: I had the following in my choice doc b/c I wanted make sure that I justify my decision.

JAVADOC COCUMENTATION
-------------------------
I do have Javadoc comments for public, protected, default and private classes and members. I am only generating Javadoc for public classes and members for HTML/Javadoc documentation. Since given instructions.html did not say anything specific about this, I have made this choice for Javadoc generation.

LOGGING
-----------
I am using logging API throughout my application for debugging. I have left the logging code in all my classes so in the future when we enhance the application we can reuse it. I have turned off all logging to entire application before submitting the project. It can turn on easily by commenting first four lines in ApplicationRunner class's constructor.



Also, here is my table of contents:

1) OBJECT-ORIENTED DESIGN

2) USER INTERFACE

3) VALIDATIONS

4) EXCEPTIONS

5) RMI

6) 48 HOURS RULE

7) SHUTDOWN HOOK

8) ENCODING

9) MAGIC COOKIE

10)PRIMARY KEY

11)LOCK COOKIE GENERATION

12)LOCKING AND UNLOCKING

13)ASSUMPTIONS FOR GIVEN INTERFACE METHODS

14)LOGGING

15)JAVADOC COCUMENTATION


Hope this helps and good luck..

Hi Payal

Congratulations for the perfect score!!

I am planning to write SCJD.

Can you let me know how and from where did you purchase your assignment and for what cost (in INDIA)? I got the address of AISoft Technologies Pvt Ltd , Bangalore from Sun's site to get the assignment. But I am not sure if i am looking in the right direction to go for the assignment.

Also, is there any single point of contact (IN INDIA) to buy these assignments or multiple locations (like we buy exam vouchers)??

Please share your knowledge on this.

Thanks. Rupinder.

[Payal Shah]

thank you..

I am not sure how it works in India b/c i did not apply from India. No idea how that works. You can do search here for other posts to see if anyone knows about this.

Good luck..sorry I wasn't much help.
