Chetna,
I would suggest JQ+. It's worth the $20! Also, I would make sure
you spend a week writing small sample codes on IO and Thread.

There is only one question on Garbage Collection, so it's all or nothing.
RHE, at best, glosses over Garbage Collection, leaving the student with the idea that "you can't force garbage collection" being the only objective of the exam. Wrong. You MUST know when objects are available for collection...
Example:

Where is the object initially referenced by arg1 eligible for collection?
*After* line 9. The key is that msg holds a reference to arg1. When arg1 is nulled on line 8, it can't be GC'd because of this reference. Only on line 9 is this reference replaced with a new String by concat'ing the other Strings.
Hope this helps.
Tim

i think there is duplication of the thread , so I am closing this thread. Don't loose heart chetna. You will come with flying colors next time. work on you mistakes. take this as learning & developing opportunity. One more thing. This is not the end & not the only exam. Life is the most toughest exam.
I hope It will be helpful in some way to you.

Shailesh.
