Well I passed .. only dropped 4 marks. I had issues with two questions! 1) Had two right answers .. but only 1 could be right .. but since the question was theory type question I suppose the answer was subjective! 2) Another question about servlet-mapping and the question asked "which one of these is correct?" - from what I could see .. 4 were correct and 1 was wrong!!! what gives .. ? Anyway . for preparation I used 1)SCWD Exam Study Kit . only book needed 2)Specs 3)APIs 4)Some notes from the FAQ section .. Laters Jas
