I have my exam on 14th, I have given mock exams but unable to score more than 50-55%, which is very depressing. Unable to understand how should i prepare now, these are the last days and confused about how to increase the score. It actually made me now more confusing and am unable to build the stamina to solve more questions now.Please share your experiences and tell me how to increase the score, I found collections and threads topics not confusing but unable to solve their questions at all. That's the hardest hit.

Babul! Do not get Depressed as it'll further degrade your performance.
I recommend you to visit the certification results forum.Recently there was a person that had very limited knowledge (specifically in SCJP) and he managed to clear this exam with 65%+ marks.Please visit this forum to build up your confidence!.

In the last days, it is equally important for you to study those not-so-hard concepts which can make a crucial difference between passing and failing in this exam(like static returns,enums,etc)

-and good Luck!
Do post your experiences

I am trying to solve questions of K & B scjp 5 LEVEL as they said that you will find questions of this type. But unable to solve them correctly.

The main problem is:
1.In multiple answers, at least my one answer is always wrong, whether there are 2 right options or three which really messed my whole question.
2.I am unable to even get collections and thread questions.Is there any special way to treat them.

Please help me out guys.

Babul
