Hi all,
Today, i passed SCJP2 with 87%. I found JavaRanch couple of weeks back, after that i postponed taking exam, to familarize stuff discussed on this site. It really helped build my confidence.
I would strongly recommend Java 2 certification guide by Robert, Heller, Ernest(RHE). Exam cram is good, but exam questions are mostly from RHE.
I'll be visiting this site often.
Thanks a lot everybody, especially Tony and Jim.

Congrats on the pass. Am sure you are glad it is over.
I have both books (RHE and ExamCram)...is it your opinion that the questions in RHE are on the same level as the exam? What is your opinion of the MockTest at the end of the ExamCram book.....
Any advice for someone one week away from taking the exam? I have gone through both books twice...written a few sample programs to test concepts.....just trying to fine tune before I knock out the exam....
Thanks...and again, Congratulations!!!

Hi SandMan,
Exam questions are like those in RHE. Exam cram model tests are quite tough. I failed those two tests. Exam cram i will have it as reference and base my exam preparation on RHE.
I like Exam cram book, from job point of view.
GoodLuck!
