Just passed the
SCJP 6 and am looking for suggestions on what I should take next...
I currently do no front-end or web-component based development. My job does have me working on some web services, EJBs, weblogic/spring framework environment but nothing too intensive or fancy.
So these are the ones I'm evaluating:
SCJD - I view this as the default logical next step up from SCJP... seems challenging.
SCDJWS - My job currently utilizes web services technology, so this is a logical choice
SCWCD - I'm considering this only because it's one of my weaker areas in Java, but at the same time I have no use for it at the moment at my current job. It would be really nice, however, to put on my resume. But if I stay at my job for a long time, I might forget this stuff quite easily as I have the worst memory out of everyone in this forum.
SCBCD - My job uses these... barely. This one seems the easiest. How much is there really to EJBs? Rhetorical question.
1) Any ideas on above?
2) Also, I want to take a bit of a study break, so if i take a 6 month break and forget all the little annoying Java nuances from the SCJP 6 exam, will it affect my efficiency in studying for the above advanced certifications?
Thanks!
