Hi,

I have my exam next week so I am doing my final preparation. I need to double check on what material from the K&B book is not covered (or else make a foolish mistake on the day).

I believe serialization is off scope, so I will not re-study that (I learnt it once already but won't revisit before the exam).

I also heard that drag and drop questions are not included in the current exam.

Is there a definitive list of current exclusions?

Thanks

Hi Sam,

I agree that serialization should be gone by now. I'm pretty sure that wait() and notify() and notifyAll() are also gone. But other thread questions remain. I think drag and drop are gone, but they are across all topics so there's really no way to change your studies, even if they still are there!

good luck,

Bert

The questions are easier, but you have less time to finish. There are still 60 questions but instead of 180 minutes, you only have 150 minutes.
