Hi guys!
I have been visiting this forum for quite some time and was very glad to see you guys helping each other and having good discussions, which actually pulled me here :-)
And a special hi to Cameron McKenzie. Ever since I've visitied your website and read your posts, I am very impressed by your enthusiasm and inclination towards helping us.
Ok, quickly coming to the point, I have already done an ordinary certification in the basics of Java which makes me aware of the programming skills and basic understanding of Core Java. However, its been quite some time (more than 2 years) that I am out of touch with programming. Now, I want to acquire Sun's certification basically to gain an extra credential for my skills and have a better scope for my further studies. Being aware of the purposes of SCJA and SCJP, what confuses me is the choice i have to make between these two. So here are a few questions I need clatifications on:
1. I want to be SCJP certified. Do I need to take SCJA also? If yes, how is it going to help me?
These two questions specifically goes to Cameron --
2. I have Java's Complete Reference and a few Java ebooks, including certification books with question bank (but the old exam format). Can I prepare for SCJP with these or do i need ExamScam by Cameron?
3. How is your book going to help me prepare for SCJP certification, as it is mainly intented for SCJA certification?
I know this's been a long introductory post by me. I'll keep it short the next time, I assure! :-)
Regards,
Jayashree
