Scope of the exam

[Jian Yi]

Hi everyone,
I'm new in this forum. And from what I observed, this is the best ever forum to study for the exam. Now could anyone tell me what is the scope I have to cover for the exam? From a previous post, I learned that AWT is no longer in the scope. Is that right? I'm so happy to know that because I hate AWT questions. I would like to know what I should study for the exam.
Best wishes for everybody,
Jenny

I thought AWT was still in scope for this exam. It would be a shame if it wasn't - that's what I spent all last night studying. Anyone?

While I agree that AWT is pretty archaic, it is STILL part of the objectives. So keep studying Corey!

I got 3 or 4 AWT questions when I took the exam last week, so I would definately study those chapters.
I found that all the AWT and IO questions were pretty easy though.

Too bad I have to study for AWT. But thanks a lot for your help. I'm gone for study now.

Well, AWT is a centerpiece of Java GUI applications. Nowadays, most people are using Swing (which is wrapped around AWT by the way) but AWT is still worth studying. Moreover, what would you do in Java if you don't know how to program GUIs?
It's so easy that it would be a shame to let it aside... (If we were talking about MFC I'd understand, though )
