Hello everyone,

Surprisingly I passed the exam with a score result I did not expect!

I read two books:
1) OCA: Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 8 Programmer I Study Guide: Exam 1Z0-808 "Sybex" (6 months ago then I quit my preparation)
2) OCA Java SE 8 Programmer I Certification Guide 1st Edition "Manning" (Last month I started to read and finished, quite a useful book)

Without Enthuware I can not imagine I would pass this exam!
My results were disappointing I got for the foundation test plus from 1-6 tests a score between 65%-68% and for the final test that I took two days before my real exam I manage to do 69%

Based on what I achieved I was quite afraid if I could manage to pass the exam...
The main reason probably for my low score was that there were to much questions, they are too detailed, and are really difficult... at some point I was not focused as needed for the mock

In the exam day I was stressed and I was expecting a hard exam, but happened the opposite it was a bit more easier than the mock tests

In the end I would really suggest for everyone to buy those mock tests from Enthuware, they are cheap and useful.

This is all from me..

Congratulations Viktor!

Can you say me at what chapter I have wrong answers?

Next month I planned to take exam OCA Java Se 7.
