hi all,

I mainly studied Kathy Sierra' book on SCJP.. I have been in Java 1.4 domain for the past 5 years...that has also helped.

Personally I feel that Kathy's book is the best, not only in terms of SCJP preparation, it will definitely add value to your Java knowledge....
I did the mock tests available in SCJP CD, then used Whizlab exam simulator trail questions...

I will update you all with the other mock exam links....

Regards
Arun

Sun has already stopped support for Java 1.4 so I think there is no point in going for SCJP 1.4. In SCJP 5 you will have to learn Generics, Static imports, Streams, etc...I am not pretty sure about the difference between SCJP 5 and SCJP 6.

I feel it is better to go for SCJP 5/6.

hope it helps.

The difference between SCJP 1.5 and SCJP 1.6 is very small. Typically we can say that SCJP 1.5 covers 95% of SCJP 1.6 objectives. You can also find this difference in details on the JavaRanch SCJP FAQ: How is the SCJP 1.6 exam different from the SCJP 1.5?

Cheers,

Devaka

Hi All,

I feel the exam simulator for Devaka (ExamLab) is a very good one.

Also the Q&A available at the end each chapter of Kathy's book is also very good.

hope it helps those who are preparing for SCJP

Congrats Nair
100% is amazing score.

Also thank you very much to Devaka Cooray for his SCJP simulator. The questions are very hard and very tricky. The explanation at the end of the exam is very helpful. It helped me a lot in my preparation.

can we expect similiar kind of simulator for SCJP 6.0 from Devaka?

Regards,
Sultan.
