After some months, I finally see that great word ("PASS") in Oracle certview for OCMJEA.

I wanted to thank everyone in forums and some great blogs round there. Specially thanks to Jeanne Boyarsky for her insightful comments.

This is the schedule I took:

• Last weeks of March 2012: Bought Part 1 and beginning of preparing it


• 23th April 2012: Passed part 1


• 26th April 2012: Downloaded assignment (Gusher Oil)


• 07th October 2012: Uploaded assignment


• 11th October 2012: Took essay examn

I've found Sun Certified Enterprise Architect for Java EE Study Guide 2nd Edition very useful for this. I've used UML Distilled 2n edition useful too.

Also found valuable information for some details in this forum and some blogs.

Best wishes for all that are going to take the exams.

No. Those are suggested pre-requisites. You should have the knowledge but you don't need to have taken the actual course before taking a later one.

Thanks Jane, but in Oracle courses web it says clear "Required pre-requisites" in related training tab (for example doing Architect Enterprise Applications with Java EE):

Which mandatory course did you attend? Was it any good? Did you or your company pay for it?

I took a 3 day course - Business Component Development with EJB Technology, Java EE 6.

Nothing new in the course. Just for the sake of satisfying the certification requirement.

Company paid for it.

Hi Lin,

I thought there were some requirements for doing all the courses (except for Java 6 programming). Did you take the Java 6 course before this one?

Just read an ORacle announcement about assignment resubmission. Seems since september 1, if you fail assignment then you have to do parts 2 and 3:
