Hi,
no I am not amused.
I knew it would be hard, and I don't have much hands-on-experience with the products. I would take the
test next month, but its not possible for political reasons. So next week again.
I found the questions really hard. 2 correct questions more, and I would be a lucky guy. The problems were the IBM product part.
Here's the result:
section (procent of total questions/my result)
Enterprise components (15% / 75 %)
Servlets/JSP (19% / 80%)
Develop clients (8% / 75%)
database, pooling (4% / 50%)
EJB transactions (11%/66%)
Develop with WAStudio (15%/12%) --> una mierda
Assemble (13% / 71%)
Websphere tools (15% / 37%)
Any suggestions for study material for the Websphere Studio development and Websphere tools to validate aspects of the application server, such as security, performance etc. are highly welcome.
Maybe it wasn't a good idea to learn until the last minute. I was very, very tired the afternoon.
Found the WSAD questions very confusing. One of them was clearly a Visual Age question.
O.k. I admit that I was concentrated more on EJB than on the IBM products. This exam really covers a lot of stuff!!!
Hope we will get more discussion in the week to come.
better luck to u all (and to me next week)

in the afternoon I found some nice resource, especially for starters (the actual test is much more advanced):
http://www-3.ibm.com/software/ad/studioappdev/library/ the online auction demo samples (these are done with Lotus Screen cam. Its huge file, but if you have a fast internet connection and are a starter its worth the effort.
