Which Exam to Apperar For 1Z0-858 OR 1Z0894

[Snehal Bachchhav]

Hi I am 3+ exp Java developer Done With SCJP with 91 %. Now I would love to go for SCWCD Exam ,I have scratched the surface on net n found myself in dilemma whether to go for 1Z0894 OR 1Z0-858.I have rad some posts saying both exams are approximately same (In term of Content ) only 1Z0894 speaks about Enterprise Edition 6. I have couple of doubts.

1.As per my experience level for which exam should i appear.
2.IS their enough books, training material available for 1Z0894 compare with 1Z0-858.
3.What is difference between 1Z0-858 and 1Z0894 (Why they have created two exams for servlet and JSP) .


I Would be delighted if someone take me out of this dilemma.
