Hello Ranchers
I cleared the
SCEA Part 1 today with 73% with 1 month preparation average 3 hours a day. My experience is its not easy subject to deal with,
you should have good experience with
JEE technologies. My experience with the exam is
* More than 10% questions were on the Web Services
* Don't apply
JSF and EJB 3 for everything
* Do lot of Mock exams it will help a lot
