Info about SCJP

[gangadhar karadi]

Hi guys, I am new to java. And I am planning to appear for the SCJP1.4. Suggest me some books for the same and how it differs from SCJP5.

Go for Kathy & Bert's SCJP book and another good book is Java2 Certification by Khalid Mughal.

Also check SCJPFAQ in JavaRanch.

If you're studying for 1.4, then you should stay away from 1.5 books, because they may confuse you. Any particular reason why you don't go for 1.5 instead ?

I had a wrong conecption about the 1.4 and 1.5 earlier so I thought like that but now i have decided to go for 1.5. Because later we have to go for upgrading the certification.

Thanks
