Hi all, I'm already OCP6. I think it would be interesting to get me the following certification.

That is, Upgrade to Java SE 7 Programmer | 1Z0-805 OR do Java SE 7 Programmer or II | 1Z0-804.

I have some general questions about this:

Is it too hard? Is it worth it? How long do you think that will take prepare well? do you think is better idea to go directly to other certifications like web component, ejb ?

can i make the 1Z0-804 Java SE 7 Programmer II(now that I am OCP6)? or I have to do the upgrade exam mandatory. An oracle operator told me I have to update myself, but on the web, I cant find nothing which says that its a requirement.

thank you very much.

Hi,

With your current certification OPC JP 6 you have 2 paths to become OCP JP7:

Path 1: 1Z0-803 Java SE 7 Programmer I AND 1Z0-804 Java SE 7 Programmer II

Path 2: 1Z0-805 Upgrade to Java SE 7 Programmer

The Path 1 is the only option for those who is not yet certified.

The Path 2 is option to get OCP JP 7 title with taking just 1 exam.

So, you decide - want you take 2 exams or 1.

regards,
MZ
