It is a 90 minutes test with 4 essay questions.... So I need to write loooong discussion about my assignment? I am quite worry about it, because I may not have enough "material" to write about, or I may be unable to comprehense a discussion with certain amount of "content" in 90 minutes.....

Just as an fyi - you might check out the naming policy here before a sheriff or bartender addresses you on this.

Trust me, ninety minutes is more than enough time to complete the essay questions. Follow the general rule about essays - give enough information to answer the question without getting needlessly wordy. I found that it took me about forty-five minutes when I sat for it.

Part 3 of the SCEA certification ask you about some topics about your design. The topics are strategically distributed over the overall architecture, like persistence, user session management, legacy conectivity, etc.

Have said that, each question is a very focused question about a specific topic, so, the discussion about it won't be so extensive. In fact, part 3 of the certification is applied to verify if you were the guy the actually did the assignment. So, the correctors will compare your answers with the assignment to be confident that you're the one.

So, don't be afraid, nineteen minutes is time enough to write down your point of view about the assignment.

regards,

Nineteen minutes would be impressive. I think you meant ninety.

Nope.

It's more the professional thing - since a lot (if not most) here are using Java in some professional sense, it projects a better image than made up screen names.
