Hi Folks,

I was looking at SCJD as my next target (probably) & was trying to understand what's involved in it . I couldn't gather much on the essay exam. Folks pls. share your experience here as to what the essay exam is based on. What kind of questions are asked? What is SUN's expectations?

The scores that folks have been posting out of 400 , do we get them after clearing essay exam as well or you get them just after submitting the project.

What kind of scoring is for essay exam?

Regards,
Shrenik Sakriya

There is no score for the essay exam. You have to do the essay exam otherwise your assignment submission (which you do prior to the essay) will not become marked at all.

The question in the essay exam are about your submission. You have to explain why you made the decisions you made in your submission.

Regards,
Darya

Hi,

I think Darya is right on that. In the exam for SCEA they ask such questions and I think the same applies for SCJD.
