hai friends,
Allow me to say thanks to all of you great individuals.And my special thanks to MAHA,AJITH,PAUL and all great contibutors in this forum. I passed SCJP2 on 24-10-2000 but with very low score(70%)I was very disappointed about my score as i used to score above 90% in all mock exams.It is fair to me if i share some of (no full ) experience about new exam.
1. No short cut to pass exam except hardwork
2.The real exam is completely differant than all available mock exams on the web.
3.I faced lot of coding & lengthy questions(about 25 to 30)with 25 to 40 lines.
4.In exam for 15 to 20 questions there is EXIHIBIT button .If you click on this button u will get another frame in which your question coding will be asked.To answer to this question again you close it and go back to your actual question number for marking
5.So observation about duration of exam was,for every question the average time is 90 seconds.If u read at an average speed y can go 3 words per second that come 3 seconds per line .ther are at least 20 , 40 line questions which take 120 seconds/question.So friends please think about it ,it is fact and make your exam program accordingly.Iam requesting for suggestions from ajith ,maha and all so that it can be better for future aspirants.
6.This scjp2 exam is ment for all people.It is not only for brilliants.The duration of exam is not sifficient with introduction of lengthy codes and lengthy story questions
7.The exam toughness is equalent to khalid mockexam.Please read khalid book
8.For threads u should be very very carefull.
that's all
I once again say thanks to all great contributors on this forum that helped me a lot.
thanks
