Passed SCWCD today & wanted to share some tips since this site provided me with so much of useful info
- You will need to know the practical usage of stuff so dont just mug it up without understanding
- Mock exams will help. I did both enthuware & whizlabs. But I found the actual test trickier than both of these
- I did not read the specs & only relied on mocks & HFSJ. Not reading specs, may have accounted for maybe 2 or at most 3 wrong answers. No big deal
- I did write some mock code while studying, especially for actions & standard tags.

I did about 4-5 weeks of total studies (no prior experience with web technologies though several years with Java)
And I did it while working fulltime so that would suggest that its not very difficult if you really like what you are studying. And studying HFSJ is fun!!
My sincere thanks to authors. Owe them a

Did you find the enthuware and whizlabs mocks for free or you bought them?
