Decided to upgrade my JDK1.0.2 programmer certificate from 1997 - got 93% in SCJP2 and in my opinion the actual exam was easier than most of the
test exams on the web or CD. Seems to me if you know that Strings are immutable and that you cannot override a method with a more restrictive access modifier then you are well on your way to passing, as these questions cropped up everywhere.
Cheers
