Hi all fellow Ranchers,

I am very happy today as I have cleared OCJP 1.6 (new year gift )

I read K&B thoroughly for my preparation and would like to thank Kathy and Bert for writing such an awesome book, explaining all the exam topics/objectives lucidly. Thank you K&B!

examloab.org also helped me in preparation and I did all the mock tests, before the real exam, below are my scores(all mock exams taken in December):

  • Diagnostic Exam - 45% (Fail) (Dec 10)
  • Practice Exam 1 - 50% (Fail) First two exams took me by surprise and I thought that I should drop the plan of giving the certification exam.
  • Practice Exam 2 - 70% (Pass)
  • Practice Exam 3 - 63% (Pass)
  • Practice Exam 4 - 66% (Pass)
  • Final Exam - 66% (Pass) (Dec 25) As per Devaka, any score around 60% would be a pretty good confidence factor. I completely agree!


  • Thank you Devaka for preparing the wonderful and tricky mock exams.

    Finally, this forum is very helpful for all the SCJP aspirants as lot of common questions and doubts are already answered and if you have any new question those would get answered as well.

    Wishing you all a great success and a Happy new year

    Regards,
    Vivek
