This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
I took the exam today and passed with 85%. Here is the break-up. Dev. Process 100 Req Modeling 77 Architecture 85 Static Modeling 100 Dynamic Modeling 75 Design & Imple 71 It is my second attempt. In the first attempt, I took the exam after studying Amigos books and got 58%. After that I studied Larman and Fowlers. I should say these are excellent practical books and a must read. The posts here are very much useful and thanks to all who are contributing to this forum. Excellent Work!!. Regards Ashok Talluri

Adnan, Read Fowler's UML Distilled and Larman's Applying UML and Patterns 2-3 times and practice the questions in IBM ICE Sample tests and go through the posting in this forums.They are the fundamentals for getting succeed.The questions in the sample test are bit easier but they are the fundamental questions. The questions in the actual exam could be a bit lenghty but the concepts are the same.I did not see a single question from sample test in the actual exam directly, but indirectly yes.Hope this helps. Regards Ashok

Hi, This Shankar from Chennai-India. I have plans to do my IBM UML certification. One of the book suggested for certification is Applying UML and Patterns : An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design. There is another book written by same author (craig larman). THey say, its the secong edition. Which is...., Applying UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and the Unified Process. The table of contents provided for these two books are entirely diffrent. Which one is the right book suggested for certification. Thanks & Regards, Shankar S

Sankar, It doesn't matter much.But we always try to read the latest edition right, so use the 2nd edition if possible. Regards Ashok
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
