Hi everyone! Today I did the exam and, as the title says, got 84%

I will share my preparation experience now.
I first started learning
Java because I needed it for my final degree (Aerospace Engineering) project, one year ago more or less. Then, I decided that I should try to certify my knowledge, so I first got the book "Java, The Complete Reference" by Herbert Schildt, not only to start getting prepared for the exam, but to improve my knowledge in general. I think this was a good decision because this book covers simple and advanced topics, so it can be really useful even for the OCP exam.
Then I got the "Practice Tests" from Scott Selikoff and Jeanne Borasky. I decided not to get the study guide because I thought this book would be enough, but after getting these scores, I reconsidered it, as I realized there were too many things I didn't know and I needed to get more preparation:
Chapter 1 - 78%
Chapter 2 - 66%
Chapter 3 - 64%
Chapter 4 - 74%
Chapter 5 - 92%
Chapter 6 - 76%
Chapter 7 - 74%
Chapter 8 - 72%
Chapter 9 - 72%
Test simulation - 81.25%
Then in the OCA study guide I got:
Assesment test - 63% (didn't get enough sleep that day

)
Chapter 1 - 87%
Chapter 2 - 80%
Chapter 3 - 70%
Chapter 4 - 71%
Chapter 5 - 80%
Chapter 6 - 70%
I know I followed kind of an unusual path during my preparation and I probably should have get more prepared considering these results, but I felt quite confident. And here I am... Next step will be the OCP exam, but for now, the job is done!
