Done it! I really want to say Thank You to everyone on this forum. I've passed it today here in Minsk, Belarus.

I spent 2 years of my life to learn java and 3 months of active studying by doing mock ups.

I've read 3 times this outstanding book "Certified Programmer for Java 6 Study Guide" - Katherine Sierra and Bert Bates

ExamLab's results:
Diagnostic-> 1st attempt -54%, second attempt -98%
1st-> 1st attempt -38%, second attempt -95%
2nd-> 1st attempt - 55%, second attempt -95%
3rd-> 1st attempt - 45%, second attempt -97%
Final-> 1st attempt -54%, second attempt -98%

Dear Devaka Cooray your ExamLab testing tool is a brilliant stuff!!!

I remember one post on this forum when someone wrote that after passing SCJP - It's a high time!
And as for me I feel the same

And one more important stuff which helped me to get this result.

I've read this http://www.mamajane.nl/documents/JavaSamenvattingSCJP6.pdf one day before exam and also my notes.

I used 3 steps during passing exam:
1 step - 30 min to go through exam by answering the easiest questions. (during this step my brain started to work) don't spend more than 30 sec - 1 min per question.
2 step - 1h 30 min to answer the remaining questions WITHOUT drag/drop and also checked the the easiest questions.
3 step - 45m - 1h to answer all drag/drop. And also didn't forget about bug when go through drag/drop. Explanation about this awful bug I've found on this forum.

Tried these steps on examlabs many times before real exam.

Thanks.

Dear Frits thanks a lot!!! I'm using your well-prepared notes before interviews now and it really helps me.

I've found just only one little typing error in notes.

Hey to everyone on this very powerful forum.

One more good point from my experience.

SCJP certificate helped me to find a very competitive job with a high salary.
And according to this point, I can definitely say that SCJP certificate makes sense to have it during finding a nice job.

Regards,
Bahtiyar

Whizlabs is a commercial mock exam engine, but the Examlab is not.
