Hi Everyone,

I finally decided to take the plunge and get my certification done (1Z0-803). Got some spare time from project work and work pressure is low over the next two months.

I have read through the Mala Gupta book and finished the mock exam. I did really well in fact in that mock exam. Better than i hoped i would. But one thing i have to say, IDEs have ruined my basics! :P

I needed help in looking for some more mock exams so that I can really know where I stand. Can any help me with those.

Also in the book I saw that the questions had the number of answers to select mentioned in them. Is the real exam like that? I would think Oracle wont be that generous!

Dear Somnath,

Welcome to Javaranch.

I suppose, you can purchase Enthuware Exam Kit and Java Beat mock exams. It is worth the price.

Hope this help,
Samar

ArrayList is not a worry for me! Arrays are!
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
