Hi,
I'm almost ready the take the exam and I'd like
to know if it is necessary to go through the JLS before. Many don't even mention this when they suggest how to prepare for the exam.
Thank you for your input.

Even to this day, I've bever taken the time to read the JLS straight through. Use it as a reference - that's what it works best for. It would be pretty dry reading... :roll:

Good luck!

Well,I know that JLS is pretty dry reading,and as Corey said,its great to be used as a reference,but I read it straight through before giving the exam.
The thing is that if you read JLS,then you will get great marks in your mock exams,and that will raise your confidence for the real exam.But be careful,it is not very interesting to read,so try it,and if you can bear it,then read it!

JLS means Java Language Specifications. It is the document that will resolve all doubts and confound the heretics among us. It is also incredibly unreadable.
