I was getting discouraged because it seemed there was simply too much to master for the xml text. It almost seemed like by the time I finished studying all the topics I'd forgotten the first topic.
Fortunately I bought the Wizlabs simulator. I just took the first diagnostice
test: 57 questions. I got a passing score (needed 34, got 37).
This was a huge shot in the arm, giving me confidence that I will definately pass when I finish the other tests in Whizlab.
So far this has been the hardest test to study for, with the exception of the old "Java Architect" exam which was hard because there were no
study guides available and the questions seemed subjective.
Anyway, I recommend the Wizlabs simulator. I'll sure be glad when this exam is finished. I thought I could do it in a month but it's already been two months. Hopefully I'll take the test the end of this week.
So far I am: IBM 141 XML and Related Technologies Certified, Sun Cert Java Programmer, Sun Cert Java Developer, Sun Cert Java 2 Architect, Sun Cert J2EE Architect (part 1 only), Sun Cert J2EE Web Component Developer, Sun Cert Business Component Developer, and Microsoft Certified System Engineer for Win NT 4.
