Hello guys.
I am appearing for the SCJP exam on the 28th of this month..SO still 2 weeks to go.
At present I have finished with mocks from Marcus.
I got average of 70% in all the 3 tests.
And i gave a few tests from JQ+.In that I am still getting an avg.of 60-65.
Can u'll let me know where do i stand??
How much i need to study more and what to study inorder to get fair marks in the exam?
Is is true that Marcus's tests and JQ+ questions are similar kind of which come in the exam??
Reply soon

I would say you need to be consistently in the high 70's or better before considering yourself ready for the exam.
You can check out a comparison of how people did on vrious mock exams here at JQ+ scores. In general, last time I looked, most people did a little better on the real exam than on JQ+ and about the same on the real as compared to Marcus'.
This is not a guarantee though and everyone is different, so I would make sure I was gettng better scores than the 60's before trying it.
hope that helps
