Thanks for replying.

It would be nice to see some more technical-questions traffic on this forum related to the SCJA.

If you, are anyone else have any, post away!

I am hoping to take it mid-September. I'd hoped that I could take it next week, but didn't get as far in preparing as I wanted to get.

I am studying/preapring for the exam as well. I picked you book up around the beginning of June. I got half way through it and a couple of people recommended reading Head First Java. I am just about finished reading that. Prior to your book, I had read Mike Murach's Java SE 6 and Java Programming. I am now completing Head First Java, then your book and plan to read through Cameron's as well. I realize I have not yet been too active on the message boards, but to be Honest Head First Java has really cleared a lot of the fog. Except, I seem to be struggling a little bit with the Networking and Threads chapter (15). More so with the Threads. I want to finish the chapter and then I will probably have some questions so that I can clear things up.

As far as when I plan on taking the exam, I am hoping for late September, early October.

Thanks,
Mike

After giving up on the idea of actually taking this exam and percolating(Charlie style---Two and a half men) for all this time , I decided to take it on Thursday last week. Took it this afternoon, 92%.

Glad I got some momentum going but would have liked to prepare better. I lost marks only the programming sections which is very annoying.

It has cost me more than I expected, but finally today I passed 22. I have my first certification, now I go for SCJP. Dear Robert, your book has done much to approve. Thanks. Greetings from Spain, Alicante.

Hey, I'm also using Robert's book to study for my SCJA exam. I'm happy to see that some of you guys recommend it. I'll be sitting for this exam in December.

Best of luck to everybody that will be writing as well.
