These 255, 256, 257
test your knowledge of
java and your skill developments using the RAD.
The 255 is an entrance level test, is tooling oriented.
I recommend taking this test (the 255).
You can find some resources at:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/offers/lp/r/radcert/index.html?S_TACT=105AGX01&S_CMP=HP http://java.boot.by/ibm-255/ You can download a demo of the RAD 6.0 or even the RAD 7.0 at the IBM web site.
The other two (256, 257) covers many aspects of J2EE.

I guess they should add more value. As for me I'm not interested in the 256 and 257 exams because they are based on the RAD 6.0 and (partly) on the EJB 2.0 technology. I'm waiting for the updates for these tests, then I'll give them a try.
