Here is the recent response I got from Sun Education regarding this.
So it's EJB1.1 for now (at least for SCEA Part I).
This is an important issue for lots of the scenario based questions, where you usually have to go for Bean Managed Persistence to optimise performance and handle complex data types. However once the exam moves to EJB2.0 you will need to consider the possibility of using Container Managed Persistence, Container Managed Relationships and local bean interfaces.
