Hi Ernest,
More than the score, how much you have understood is important.
You should try to think as to how you can apply Java in real world situations
The bottom line is to get a decent score more than 85% (90%+ is recomnended!)Once you get this kind of score, the interviewers will expect more out of you and if you succeed then definitely, you would be considered in the elite category.
Hope this helps,
