SCEA Result: Grade 'F' but score 100

[Shao Huan]

I've just got my result. It shows that the grade is 'F' but the score is 100. So have i failed or passed. Anybody got similar experiences or can shed some light as to what might have happened?

I suggest you send an e-mail to [e-mail] for clarification. Let's cross our fingers and hope for the pass.

[Bharat Ruparel]

Hey Shao,
Most likely, you indeed got 100% and and Pass (I would say!). I will not worry too much about it, but do send in a note to SunCert asking them to correct this problem.
By the way, when did you submit your assignment and when did you take your essay exam?
Congratulations!!!
Regards.
Bharat

I'm not getting my hopes too high. Just want to see the 'P' grade. The score don't really matter. Anyway, I've emailed suncert. Hope to hear clarification from them soon.

I submitted my assignment 4 weeks back (cannot remember the exact date) and taken the essay exam 3 days after submitting the assignment.

usually P means pass and u need a P for them to process ur SCEA result to mail u the certification package.

Shao,
Did you get any reply from the SUN guys? Hope you get the P and its an amazing score !

Shao,
That's terrific score. No barrier. Congrats.

[Deepak Pant]

can you give a count of how many classes were there in your class diagram? and also were there any class in your diagram which was there for extensibility reason. I mean was not needed for current requirement but you added it for future growth.

[Dhiren Joshi]

Well done Shao
Congrats. Fantastic score.

I need some input for the java appl client design which I have conme up with. Any pros and cons that you see with it..
I am trying to design the java app to create the same Event interface at its end and send it through the business delegate to the EJB tier via the EJB controller and so reuse the entire EJB Tier entry point..
does that sound reasonable.


Thanks
Dhiren

I had close to 30 classes in my diagram. The classes that I've included are definitely required to fulfil the requirements. What I've done is to factor in extensibility in the design of my classes.

[Deepak Pant]

Thanks...so there are 30 business domain objects.

How many of these 30 classes are participating in your sequence diagram?

Yes, I made use of the same tier to receive the requests from both the web and application client.

Not all of it. Sequence diagram took me the longest time. I was constantly battling with myself whether to include class A or class B and so on. Use notes to clearly indicate the classes that you've omitted in the sequence diagram.

Many Thanks...

How did u justified that your proposed architecture is well suited for Agents. The requirement clearly states that Agents should get maximum performance.

in my design, i've tapped onto the same architecture for both web and app clients. hence, i've justified from the perspective of the various tiers that i've included.
