Hi,

For the last past 5 weeks I've been entirely distracted from studying for the exam with my job hunting. I received 2 great offers, albeit a verbal one, after being interviewed by a combination of 12 people for those two positions -- ya, they needed to be sure. I had to abandon my OCPJP to prepare for either of the positions that I was being hired for (what a dedicated employee).

Each company put my on hold for two weeks to send an actual contract, but unfortunately, due to the budgetary shortcomings, they decided to scrap those positions along with a few other dozens (I verified it with several people inside those companies). I'm glad it happened before I got in. So, I'm back on the dating market for OCPJP again. Actually, I have more reasons to study because the current position that I'm advancing in the interview process for (another company) is mostly core java and J2EE.

My question is, how many times can one postpone the exam date? Can you expedite the date (just in case)?

P.S. It's so amazing how fast one might forget the topics which highlights good habit of having a structured note for future reviews.

No, but I would be happy if someone tells me how many times I can postpone the test?
