Hello, to those SCJEA rangers,
I am preparing for the SCJEA examination and about to take the exam in 2 days times, I have read all the news
in the JavaRanch and have consolidated all the mock questions from the site. I have try on all
mock exam available in other sites but somehow I'm not so sure of the answer.
Almost all the questions are posted on JavaRanch, I pick them up and try on them but I do not know whether my answer is right. I would like to know of your answer so that I can figure if it make sense.
To those who have taken the exam, I will like your second opinions on these answers since most of the question is ambigous...
thank
