Hello,
Thanks God (Alhamdolillah), I Passed the IBM-486 Exam last tuesday
It was a tough exam, i burnt all the the time of the exam. It was full of diagrams.
I started my actual preparation first 2 months ago.. The last two 10 days i was just doing mock exams.
Here is my notes for whom wants to prepare for the exam:
- Read Larman Book Once
- Read Fowler Book 2 times
- Use WhizLabs, they very good (dont get desperate if you didnt pass the diagonistic and the first exam , this what happened with me....at the final i got 46/56 )
- Do the Mocks provided by CFW & Bala at

- Read the study notes
