Cleared Part I -- 91%

[Nitin Gujral]

Hi Everyone,
2 days back I cleared SCEA Part-1 with 91% score. The section breakup is:
Concepts……………………………………………… 83 %
Common Architectures……………… 66 %
Legacy Connectivity………………… 100 %
EJB…………………………………………………………… 100 %
EJB Container Model………………… 100 %
Protocols…………………………………………… 100 %
Applicability of J2EE…………… 100 %
Design Patterns…………………………… 100 %
Messaging…………………………………………… 100 %
Internationalization……………… 100 %
Security……………………………………………… 50 %
The test was good. The questions are conceptual. One or two were vauge but for the most part, if you understand all of the concepts it would be a piece of cake.
Resources I used:
1. EJB Oreilly's Monson-Haefel, EJB Specs, Blueprints
2. UML Distilled
3. Design patterns by GoF, Mark Grand
4. I18N Sun Tutorial
5. Java 2 Network Security
6. Various online resources
This forum has helped me a lot. Info posted by the group members is really great. Looking forward to part-2.
Good luck to all the wanna be architects :-)
