I'd take that statement with a pinch of salt. Granted, you don't have to know every J2EE pattern, but you are
required to have a good understanding of GOF patterns and how J2EE platform architecture implements some of them. SCEA objectives published by Sun for Part I has the following section and it is pretty clear -
DESIGN PATTERNS:
� Identify the most appropriate design pattern for a given scenario
� Identify the benefits of using design patterns
� State the name of a Gamma et al. design pattern given the UML diagram and/or a brief description of the
pattern's functionality
� Identify benefits of a specified Gamma et al. design pattern
� Identify the Gamma et al. design pattern associated with a specified J2EE technology feature
