is the score important?

[Ernest Lee]

why ppl so concern about their scores in the exam? is the score so important? have anyone being asked for their scores during interview? will the score appear anywhere on the certificate or elsewhere?

What you get is a printout after your exam with the results. You can access your data at Prometric by your password and ID#.
People here at Java Ranch post their marks and feedback simply to spur those who are prepping for the exam to continue in their goal and learn from other's mistakes.
A pass is all that is important, but a high mark you may brag about in a humble manner

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,
Sandeep
