Congratulations!

What is materials you use for exam? What is your experiences and lessons? What simulators you use?

In addition, are core JEE design patterns included?

Thanks,

Without too many great SCEA5 books or materials out, that's a great score. You should be proud of yourself!

[Selina Tan]

I purchased the ePractice exam
Reason:
- only exam ard that is for SCEA 5
- the price is actually cheap as compare to whizlab (SCEA 2)

For the materials used.....i will list it by section ok?
Hope this list help those who are preparing the certification too

Section 1-

Practical Software Estimation: (M. A. Parthasarathy). (Note: I didn't read this book... for this section actually quite straight forward... if you have purchase the ePractice exam, from the answer & reference you will be able to tell what is reqd in the exam)

Section 2-

Enterprise Blueprints

Section 4-

- Java EE tutorial
- Designing Enterprise Applications with the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition, Second Edition

Note: only score 37% for this section... hee... so.... it means the material i used is not enough....

Section 5-

- Designing Enterprise Applications with the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition, Second Edition

Section 6-

Congratulations, don't worry about your score, more important than this, now you are java/jee architect. Great Job.

[Cameron Wallace McKenzie]

I agree with Anderson about the score. Being SCEA certified is like being pregnant - either you are or you are not. You are! (SCEA certified that is, not pregnant).

Congratulations Selina,

Could you tell me how many and what type of questions you got on JPA and JSF. Also were there any questions related to J2EE API, or all the questions were of the format like which technology to use for a given business scenerio.

Thanks,
Ajay

Thanks everyone!

Can't rem exactly how many questions.
JPA - there're questions on both application of Java EE technology and java EE API. usu. asked tog with EJB 3
JSF- If i didn't rem wrongly all are on application of Java EE technology. ie given a scenario, which technology to use; correct usage of JSF

Sorry for the vague answer coz I can't rem the question exactly now...

[Selina Tan]

Actually cameron's anwer to you in the thread "JPA and JSF for SCEA 5"... he had already told you what is reqd.

well... i thk in total i spent ard 1-2 mths study for the certification.
Each week I will dedicate 1 day to study the different sections of the certification.

Btw it took me longer as I'm not familiar with patterns....so for those who already know maybe the time spent will be shorter?

Hope this helps........
