I passed yesterday so i am pleased

although i dropped alot of marks on concurrency, but never mind.

my prep consisted of 6 months study with work commitments (full time java dev) it was not an easy journey. in this time i:

I read the k&b book twice completely
re-read a couple of chapters a third time
made notes on about 6 chapters
wrote 100's of little programs to test things out

anyway i'd like to thank javaranch its a great community i will come back often

also thanks kathy and bert for a great book, i have read 3 of their books now (scjp, head first java , head first design patterns), all of which i would recommend they are very good.

anyway job done. maybe SCWCD next , i think i'll have alittle rest before it though !
