Hi all
Kind of disappointed with the score.exam was actually quite easy to pass.but if you need more than 90 percent , you need to be able to answer some ambiguous and tricky questions.Iam disappointed that Oracle  have still left these ambiguous questions even after so many people complained.

I used Enthuware and the java book which everyone suggested.
Thanks for all the suggestions.Exam is very easy to pass if you know basics of java and programmed for couple of years

Thats because they are not encouraged in Javaranch.All these Killer series are partial brain dumps which are taken out of exam candidates.

So you can pass exam if not score high with these guides but you will never able to learn the concepts.

whats the point in trying more than one time as it gives out same set of questions each time;)...I did that for my 252 exam and lost money..

Congrates..
Just out of curiosity,What do you study in school?
I mean what are the subjects you study in schooling?

just to make some things clear..There is nothing like different servers provide different deployment hierarchy...For any j2ee complaint server,they need to implemet the spec by sun..But they can provide extensions on top of existing deployment hierarchy...
Ex:Some of the xmi files which IBM app server has in its web deployment hierarchy..

but tomcat is really simple and eclipse has it as an integrated server.So you can just deply/develop everything from IDE.

I never tried working out examples as i had prior experiance but if you are new,its better to have installation environment.

Hope This Helps

I believe the offer was only for certain countries..And also,when buying a voucher,you should enter a "priority code" ...So if you have done both of these,you need to contact Sun education in your country..

All The Best

the exam may cost less from whizlabs as its outdated.
So you better go for allready available IBM xml 142

I wonder on what criterion prometric centers were given licenses..
Some of the centers i visited in london where pathetic...In one center i observed that we were sitting as though in a browsing center with no proper ventilation in the room...there were some 10 seats packed in a small room...
Looks like only 20% out of all available prometric centers deserve to be testing centers..Above all candidates really need proper test writing environment because we are paying huge amounts of money... Atleast i paid 178� for every sun exam and that money is not small..

Intially when i started SCWCD preparation,i too thought about skipping as i thopught its too much to remember...But i tried to read those 7,8,9 and 10 chapters 3-4 times.And rest is history.I got 100% in that section.So be brave and dont skip stuff.

All the Best

If you a first time user,you need to create a account.Otherwise it will give an error

which version of websphere have you installed??
is it a licensed version or trial version?

Cheers

The link may not be present at Top Level.You may need to select "applications" link and than there should be link called Installed applications.
Also there will be few missing links if you havent installed Network Deployment version.

congrates!!!great score

short explanation is that you can store objects when you call setAttribute() but you cant do that in setParameter()
Other than that there is not much difference in the Attribute and Parameter names.
