I appeared for SCJP 2 in Decemeber 1999. I got 69% and did not manage to clear it. I referred to RHE that time. I planned to reappear for it once more but could not materialise. Now I am planning to take the exam this month-end. Can anyone
Ajith,Maha and everyone tell me if there is any change in the exam pattern than that followed by RHE book. I relied heavily on it. But last time it was due to my silly mistakes that I didnt clear. But RHE was sufficing the objectives very much and the ques. were of the similar standard as given at back of RHE.
Is RHE still the same good reliable book or the things have change in past 7 months. Please advise because it still remains the core of my preparation strength.

To all javaranch moderators (Tony, maha anna, ajith, paul) thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Same to all those followers of these wonderful site.
I hardly pass the exam with a score of 75%. I must admit that I am a bit disappointed with my score. I�m thinking of retaking the exam in hope of improving my score. Is it worth to take another exam? Can someone advised me with this one?
To tell you the truth, I�m a bit uncomfortable with my basic knowledge in java. During the last week of my preparation, I even prefer to play Tekken , instead of clarifying my fundas. It really didn�t help at all. I decided to take the exam because all I wanted is to get over with this preparation. I still have this attitude of waiting for the last day to prepare like I did during my college years. I think this is the first thing I should try to improve before I take another step towards achieving another goal.
My advise to all candidates for SCJP, be confident with your java fundamentals. Always make it a point to visit this site coz you may find topics here that will really clarify your understanding in java. Try to write programs to clarify things playing inside your mind.
Catch you later!

I discovered these new keywords on the Marcus Green site.As to my knowlege 'goto' and 'const' are no more keywords of java, although they were earlier.Please guide from exam perspective for java platform 2 certification.

I am from Mumbai also planning to give the exam in this month.
As to your question , I also plan to take in the exam with in the next few day. As to my knowledge the new beta test exam will commence on august 8, the registration for the exam is already closed.Taking the exam in the month of August should not seem to be a problem for you considering the time for feedback and launch of the new platform 2 objectives.I would estimate a minimum of 15 days to a month's time for the refurbishment of the new syllabus to launch after the beta test trial.Also the beta test is a trial test to recieve appropriate feedback from the appearing candidates by Sun Microsystems.
Hope this encourages you for the exam.

// Another example of inexact results and rounding:

for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
double z = 1.0 / i;
if (z * i != 1.0)
System.out.print(" " + i);
}
System.out.println();

}
produces the output:
inexact results with float: 0 41 47 55 61 82 83 94 97
inexact results with double: 0 49 98
