As you noted, this is incorrect. You need to know more that the GOF patterns. (which are
Java patterns, but not JEE patterns)

There were some questions on this. Nobody can give you the weightage unless they work for Oracle since it isn't published.
Sandeep Joshi wrote:Also I saw , in J2EE patterns following patterns are not covered in that book or also in the most of the pattern links on internate following patterns are not included. so even if J2EE patterns are included for part-1 can I skip following patterns?
1.Context Object
2.Application Controller
3.Application Service
4.Business Object
5.Domain Store
6.Web Service Broker
All of those patterns are covered in Cade/Sheil. I wouldn't assume they are out of scope. In fact a couple seem like core patterns to me and I can't believe they aren't in your book.
