15 years ago
All,

I wanted to know if someone managed to give Zachman Architecture exam? It seems one needs to take there courses before giving exam. Not sure if we can just buy book and give exam.

Anyone who can throw light on how to approach of getting this certification it would be REALLY helpful!

Thanking you

Pravin Kumar

Taking the course ( which is $2000 or so) is only way you will get the "right" material for certification ELSE you need to read 12 books of 500 pages each.
I would say it's maximum use is if you doing Architect / lead in SOA project.
Any idea why sample test ( which they charge $10) not working?

People who have already cleared the exam on any advice of what training material to refer. Any help will be appreciated. Also the sample test link is not working does anybody know why?

Thanks

Appu,

Can you please answer the questions you just mentioned? These questions are very tricky. Can you also give us tips on how to go about solving these problems (what thinking pattern, basic steps in solving a problem)

Thanks

Hi,
I gave the Test and Failed. I got exactly the same percentage(55%) as i got in sample test. Unfortunately, the sample test was down(wanted to give again) and i got frustrated and decided to give a try only to know that questions are way to practical and not very technical. Questions a very practical scenarios, Scenarios that i do face and we require weeks to figure out right solution.

Knowing the pattern's and product's usage is just tip of iceberg. You need to have your concepts very clear on when to use one pattern over others and also know all the products and how they work with these patterns.

I have been studying for couple of months only to find that test was only 10% technical, 20% when and where to use specific products, and 70% hypothetical pratical problem's.

All the best!

First of all i would like to thank this forum for great help ! This forum is definately helping in creating SCEA's.

Well having said that i still don't know the score. I have access to both Assignment and other website(i7lp.integral7.com) and none of them show my score. Then i thought may be when i physically get a paper certificate i would get to know. Today i got a mail package from Sun and it has certificate, fancy card (with your name printed on it) but no score card. So can anybody tell me where can i see it?

My feedback on exam. Part - 1 i found to be toughest as this is the exam where you also need experience in designing. I didn't find any question which i thought was right from the specification or text book. Every question has multiple true answers and all the options makes you think hard. Again, this forum has lot to offer and if you just follow all the suggestions given by guru's you will surely pass.

Thanks

Thanks Ashish,

I saw that there are "enrollment" dates listed for these courses. Does that means that you can take that course only on those dates or any time?

Appreciate your help
Ashish,

Can you kindly give information on how to get access to VW003 and VW004 WBT? i created an account. Then it asked for creditcard number, etc ... is that the right way to access the WBT?

Thanks

Hi,

I tried to contact Sun via email ( send mail to all possible email addresses i could find) regarding score showing 0. but no reply and it's been 1 week.

It is soo disappointing that we spend so much money on giving this certification and we don't even get a response ( be it any response). Not even a response!

I only hope they improve there customer service.

Thanks Fabio, I wish you are right ... you raised my hopes of passing . But i guess i will still be in doubt till i see the score.

Nevertheless thanks for your reply
