Hi,
I passed SCJP 5 today with a score of 75%. But I would have been happier if I would have got 80%+. Can you guys give me an honest opinion who have already cleared where does this score stand?

You can share your learning and experience during preparation and xam for all those people who are preparing for xam (like me ) it will be of gr8 help.

For me, knowing how tough the exam is, and how it is more performance based, and how you really need to know the stuff just to pass. I think any passing score is a very good score.

Thanks guys. Below is a interesting question that i faced in the exam.Its not the exact copy of it but surely serves tha same purpose.

[removed question]

Hi guys, this is a really tough call, I know you said it wasn't a real exam question, but it was probably pretty close, so I decided we should remove it - sorry, but better safe than sorry.

The result is:
2. prints "in Thread"

When t.start() is called on the Thread instance for the run() method.
See p. 238 of David Flanagan's "Java in a Nutshell" from O'Reilly for an example that is very close to this example.

Congrats on passing the SCJP 5!
