Dear All ,
Thank you for all the help ,I received from you all,especially Sachin Deokar,Joanne Neal, Jesper Young and Bert Bates.
I just did lot of small programs as I read " Sun Certified Programmer for Java 6 Study Guide" by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates.
I would have read and done the exercises for around 5 times and finally before a week to take the exam I would have done the Learn Key Master Exam for 2-3 times taking a open book exam , answering the questions and checking if it is right and if not look at the answers provided and work out the logic and correct myself.I think I should have taken a lot of mock exams to get better result.
But after all this the actual exam is a brain bender, I will say go through the text at least 3-5 times and do lot of programming during the first time you read the book and also do the Learn Key Master Exam as many times as possible after you have completed the book once.
I will especially thank Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates for giving such a wonderful book to the World.

Regards
Suresh K Avanthkker
