This is the first certification I have taken and I got 90%,looks like a good start with java and I’m planning to take Sun Web component developer soon at least in 2 or 3 months.
I wouldn’t say its a easy exam although most of the questions are multiple choices very few questions on output. I have spend at least 3 hrs on an avg per day for the last 20 days for preparation. The time taken to prepare would be less for programmers who use java often.
The book I used for preparation was Sun Certified programmer & developer Study Guide(Exam 310-035).The book was really good but there R some chapters like wrapper,assertions need to be updated to the latest Sun docs. So to be safer check with Sun java docs for the version ur taking the exam.
There were lots of simulation software available for free those weren’t tough enough and pretty easier. I would recommend going for Whizlabs SCJP 1.4 preparation kit. It has 10 practice papers which R tough and I just finished 7 off them R tough. I was getting around 70 – 80% in the simulation exams,so I leave the rest to ur imagination.
One other simulations software that I would recommend is Khalid Moguls scjp simulation. I got most of the online demo from the following site http://www.dpo.uab.edu/~asm/mock.html.
If U buy exam vouchers from sun for exam before June 31st 07 don’t forget to use the coupon code. U can retake the exam for free of charge if U fail on the first often. As usual I was too careless to look in to special offers of sun web site,but any way I passed and they don’t put ur score in the certificate.
