Hay all
I am from Hyderabad (India) a regular visiter of this section ,first of all a very big sorry of delay ,I completed
SCJP on 6th and my time is 2 hours don�t be surprised .
I want to tell my sad story
I have been planning for scup from 6 months but ended up with only 71% .I booked my slot ten days before exam. But two days before the exam I had a discussion with one of my friend and found I was not clear in inner class and Threads so I asked them to postpone my exam for another 10 days, surprisingly they told me that once slot is booked you cannot change the date. Is this true can�t we change the date, after all we are paying the money doest we have the right to change the date�.
Real Exam
My time was at 9.30 am they (center ) told me that I must be at before 15 minutes another surprise they came at 10.15 and my exam started at 10.45 .At 10th que its time for real surprise the system hanged I don�t know why what they told me was there was power problem , again my exam started after 5 minutes ,again at 14th que again same problem and this time 10 minutes break again at 17th que this time 15 minutes break. what I lost in these breaks was time and Concentration ,they used to restart the system again and again my exam will start at same que once again I have to read the same que .
What I want to say is one way they forced to take the exam even though I was not 100%
Confidence in all topics. I gave my exam in two minds , I thing this way got very low score . I think I am waiting all these days for 71% only
The exam was really easy and getting 70% is easy, but from here you have to do handwork first your concepts must be very, very clear. Do not depend on any single book maha�s each and every discussion they will help you a lot. Use mock exam as learning tool only they wont help in the real exam
Go for JSL and Khalid both are very good books
Thread no books will help I got loops in synchronized block
My advice
100% confidence before the exam is important
Get a good exam center not like mine
Concentrate more on fundamentals
At last sorry for my long post
Can�t we postpone our exam?
