Hi,
Squeaked thru
SCJP 5.0 with 62%. Did NOT deserve to pass for a week's sketchy preparation (with 3 yrs
Java programming exp
)
Did not do ANY full-length mock tests except for one in the year 2004 that I flunked
Solved stuff off and on. Did not solve any questions whatsoever in 5.0 features
Major credit to two factors
1 Mark Hanlon for his post on March 24, 2006 10:57 AM. Saw this 48 hours before the
test when had reached total panic stage - Spent two whole days learning all concepts of Enums, Generics, Threads and new 1.5 features. I snagged 20 questions on these.
2 K&B Book for 1.4 - Taught me more threads that 3 yrs work.ex. could
Tempted to call it FATE and DESTINY but is actually sheer dumb luck
