posted May 14, 2004 09:13 AM OK, I have just taken the test this afternoon at NTUC Tanjong Pagar. If you pay attention to the slip, it is stated that the test is on level 34. I was curious enough to go to level 6 to find out that it was being renovated.
This test is the longest test that I have taken so far. The new place at level 34 is nice, not as "cold" as level 6. I managed to "stay cool" for 3 and a half hours. At last, after deciding that it was enough for me, I left the place 10 minutes before the deadline (4 hours and 20 minutes)
Some notes
----------
1. There are 16 questions of pattern matching type out of total 174, nicely distributed in various topics (Application Integration)
2. Total questions are exactly 174, no more, no less, 4 1/2 hours for the questions only. The survey before the test has separate timing, 15 minutes, before the test.
3. Please read the whole book of "RMH" and especially the Java implementation. The focus is on JAX-RPC, JAXR, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, etc, not so much on pure XML and JAXP.
4. For security questions, please study WS-Security and its underlying technologies. They come up quite early. I regret that I did not study it.
5. Some design, best practises, etc on few last questions.
6. Since I do not have real-life experience of J2EE, I was quite overwhelmed by some of the questions. Time to brush more!
7. Conclusion, quite tough, but if you have solid experience, no problem.
8. No report was generated, at the end, it said that the result would be sent after 6-8 weeks.
Any questions, please send to [email protected]

"Richard MH" recommended the second reference book, however I had not really read it. Therefore I could not give any comment.
