I just finished the exam this morning (7/3/03). It takes me 3 hr 10 minutes to finish. After 2 hours since the exam started, I can’t concentrate very well and don’t know how well I did for the last 70 questions. I didn’t review when I finished since I am so tired.
After I click End button, the screen show me some information that it will take 6-8 weeks to get score etc. But the test center (Maryland, USA) doesn’t print anything for me to confirm I did the test. Did someone get something printed out after you test?
Besides Sun EJB 2.0 spec at
http://java.sun.com/products/ejb/docs.html#specs, I use the following documents for preparation:
1. Valentin Crettaz cheat sheet at
http://www.valoxo.ch/jr/cheatsheets.html 2. Ashik uzzaman document at
http://www.ourbangla.com/scbcdbetaexam.doc 3. Kathy’s book preview at
ftp://ftp.wickedlysmart.com/pub/ 4. Other Javaranch posts.
I didn’t meet DnD problem (Win2000, 64M Pentium II machine in test center). And I like the DnD design.
I do memorize spec. Page 77, 80, 89, 90,168, 179, 180, 320, 375, 276, 377, 378 last night in case I didn’t understand correctly. You can also use Valentin Crettaz cheat sheet for final review before the test. Last night review and memorize (like Kathy said, should be understanding not memorization, but I don't have choice to memorize a lot of thing) help me very much for today’s test.
I must say thanks to Kathy, Valentin, Ashik and every rancher for the wonderful documents and discussion. Without you, I can’t do the test and I can't learn so much.
Also I must say thanks to Evelyn for pushing the count from 400 to 600 and all her hard works. I wouldn’t in the test if there are only 400 test seats.
