Hi,

Can anyone tell me what is the difficulty of the Marcus Green SCWCD mocks compared to the real Sun exam?

Thanks!

Also Q12 on Summary Quiz 1 says:

The standard HTML method for processing a form is SUBMIT (Incorrect)
explanation:
The standard HTML method for processing a form is POST though forms usually have a submit button to allow this to happen.

Isn't POST an HTTP method....?

It is; and GET is the default, not POST.

The real exam questions are a bit easier, because they tell you how many answers must be given.

A lot easier than SCJP I must say!

I think that the real exam -even that it tells you how many answer to choose- is harder than Marcus Green's exams.

Okay...I still hope to write in about 3 weeks though.
Just my EL is weak,my filter knowledge is weak and I haven't read the Design Patterns chapter yet.
I was hoping to buy the Charles Lyon's book to give me a nice condensed reference..but it isn't available here.
*sigh*And it's not much fun practicing servlets and JSP when I can accomplish everything much easier with php or javascript...

I guess that's a matter of opinion. I scored higher on my real test than on the mock exams.

me too, for some mocks. I said that for Marcus greens mock in specific, but that does not apply to all mock exams, HFSJ for instance.

Well this time I have:

83% for Marcus' 1st mock
86% for Marcus' 2nd mock


Still need to try out HFSJ mocks....
(I'm so tired of re-reading and forgetting these things!)
