Is that one exam or three?
java - OO Concepts - Design
Patterns This site has an excellent search feature - upper right side of the page. I found my prior post on brainbench exams:
post with my reply about brainbench exams As I said in that post, it has been a while since I took any brainbench exams. I took an OO Concepts exam and some java exams, didn't take anything on design patterns (although the OO concepts probably included design patterns questions). The tests weren't very difficult for people that either knew the answers or were very good at finding answers during timed exams.
On topics I was pretty confident about I spent most of my prep time assembling references to use during the exam; mostly browser bookmarks of sites with the information i though I would need or with search engines that were appropriate to the topic. I took exams on a couple of topics I wasn't very confident on so I spent a small amount of time preparing, but nothing like the time I spent studying for the
SCJP certification.
