Cleared ocjp 6 with 100%

[binay shah]

Hi all,
I cleared my ocjp 6 with 100%. I finished the exam in less than an hour. Exam was very very easy.
thanks to Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates Study guide and practice exam. Thanks to Devaka Cooray for his wonderful Examlab simulator.
thanks to everyone in this forum for answering my questions.

Congratulations! Amazing score!!!

[binay shah]

Thanks.
There were no drag and drop and serialization questions on the exam. Regarding the practice exams from K&B, try to get at least 70% to clear the exam with good marks and to gain more confidence and after that you can go for the exam. The level of questions on exam is very easy as compared to practice exams but the questions were tricky. You should be able to catch the trickier part.

In real exam the passing score is 61% or 58%....In kathy sierra book its given 58%...Please tell

[Ankush Seth]

[Ankush Seth]

which book is good for certification:
1.Kathy Sierra
2.Khalid Mughal
Thanks in advance

[binay shah]

to become a SE7 java programmer you must first take OCA JP7 and then OCP JP7 but incase of SE6, you can just take ocp jp6 to become a java certified programmer. Taking oca se6 is not mandatory.
Regardind books, i recommend you go with Kathy sierra, though you may want to consult some of the chapters from Khalid Mughal especially the "development" chapter of kathy sierra. I had some difficulty in understanding it from Kathy Sierra book and finally go for lots of mock exams.
hope it helps

Regarding books....there is only one book that covers OCPJP 7 exam topics 100% i.e. the book by Ganesh/Sharma. Other books are for SCJP 6 and hence they will not be sufficient for OCPJP 7.

[Ankush Seth]

Thank you very much..

[Ankush Seth]

Kindly tell me...why there is a need of doing OCA ?? why is it required??.

well guys here is my experience about ocpjp6 (1z0-851) ->

> Kathy sierra is an awesome book for clearing your concepts.
> don't get disheartened if you don't score much in the practice exams. even i used to fail in its exercises.
> the real exam is much much easier. But make sure that you've read the book properly and understood all the concepts and the test exercises too.
> you can practice free mock test available on the net
