Was the allocated time enough to answer all the questions and review it a second time ?
Which topic was more frequently asked and which one was the most difficult one ?
It has been a while since I took the
SCJP but the
SCEA questions are more focused on conceptual issues and like I stated above, you'll get quit a lot of scenario question. e.g. they will describe you a certain problem and you'll have to pick the most appropriate architecture, and so on.
Time wise, I thought it was kind of tight because of the lengthy question you will have to read through. At the end I got about 10 minutes left to review some of the questions I have marked for review.
I guess
EJB and EJB Container Model where to most questions on. There was also a good bunch on Common Architecture and at least four on design
patterns.
There were exactly 2 questions on i18n and two on security. I also got a couple of questions that involved
applets but more like in a sence of a scenario question and not a simple "what is an applet for" kind of question.
