J2EE Patterns included - Part 1?

[Raj Rad]

Do I have to study the J2EE patterns catalog?

[Chris Mathews]

Not for Part 1, though it would definitely help solidify your knowledge of J2EE. However, I would say a good understanding of the Core J2EE Patterns is necessary to pass Part 2/3.

One more thing, Rajasekaran.
Thanks for joining JavaRanch, but could you take a quick look at the naming policy and edit your profile accordingly.

[Raj Rad]

I have been a member of javaranch for a while though I couldn't participate in the forums. I used to just sneak in sometimes.
I have changed my display name as 'Raj' now. I hope this is according to the policy.
Thanks
Raj
