Hi Cathleen, welcome to Javaranch.
Your display name doesn't quite fit with the famous naming policy. Could you please take a minute to add a last name, preferably your real name? It's all about maintaining our professional image - don't let the one-eyed moose fool you!
Congrats on passing the exam. Have you thought about writing a bunch of code as a next step? You might check out the Cattle Drive here at javaranch.
Thanks, Pauline

Simply consider: SCWCD 1.4 by getting Kathy and Bert's Head First Servlets and JSP SCBCD 1.3 by getting Kathy and Bert's Head First EJB SCJD 1.4 by getting Max's SCJD with J2SE 1.4 SCMAD 1.0 SCDJWS 1.0 by getting Richard's J2EE Web Services SCEA
I think to get SUN's certificate family is a good idea for being as a Java Developer, and I am now going in this direction.
