Book 1 and both mocks are for jdk1.4 certification. Book 2 and 3 are for jdk 5 exam, but not available yet.

[Marcus Green]

I believe Dans book is aimed at the 1.4 exam and the link to my material is also that for the 1.4 exam. However you can see 60 finely crafted guest questions aimed at the 1.5 objectives at

http://www.examulator.com/phezam

Those questions are a taster to pursuade people to pay the $US15 subscription to the full database, but they should make a fine stand alone study aid anyway.
