SCWCD/OCPJWCD 5 or 6 ? A Doubt and a Confusion between the versions of the exam.

Hello Guys,

I am planning to appear for the SCWCD or OCPJWCD (as it is now known as). However, I am utterly confused between the versions of the exam.

Let me elaborate myself. I am very interested in passing the new JSP and Servlets which are parts of JEE 6. So I was just rummaging through the Oracle Certification site.

http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_894

1) Is this list of topics complete? [ Please click the above link and scroll till you find "exam topics". I see some SCWCD 5 topics not there in this list , for example, "Listeners". ]
2) Has anyone attempted the OCPJWCD 6 and passed? Some tips and hints from their side would be highly appreciated.
3) I do hope Head-First Series is available for OCPJWCD 6. Any other books I may refer?

Thank you for reading this post and replying.

Regards,
Abhijit.

Abhijit,

The new version (OCEWebComponent) is under expert path and not under OCP path.

Please look at the difference here .

You should have knowledge in Java EE 6 changes like servlet annotations, filter annotations, web fragments, and asynchronous servlet to appear this exam.

Good luck for your preparation !
