java+++的ocjb_How to prepare for Oracle Certified Java Programmer (OCJB).

I am not sure if anyone

is interested in my blog, but I just to want to write down my

experience on taking the OCJB (previous known as SCJP) exam. Hope

that my experience would help others to pass or score well on this

exam also.

I took this exam on

October 2010 and passed with a score of 98%.

To be honest, most of

the exam taker would know that they can easily pass the exam by

studying only a few

“dumps”, which would also be available online. I am not saying that

dumps are evil and one should never use it. Dumps could be used as

exercises and should not be the only source of studying for the

exam. In my opinion, getting a certification may only enhance your

chance of getting a job, but not keeping it. In the long run, if

you don’t have the necessary skills to perform well in your job,

you may also lose your job. I think passing the cert by studying

dumps only is just a waste of time and money.

Here are a few books

that I highly recommend for the exam preparation:

SCJP Sun certified programmer for Java 6 study

guide : exam (310-065) / Kathy Sierra, Bert Bates

This book is an eye

opener for me and helps me understand much better what

object-oriented programming is. It’s not only a good book for your

exam preparation, but also a book you shouldn’t miss when you are

studying java.

Going through this book

1-2 times and finish the exercises at the end of each chapter will

give you a very solid foundation for the exam. When you are doing

the exercises in the dumps or somewhere else, you can always refer

to the study guide. I found that everything I need to know was

actually in the book and I didn’t have to search high and low on

the internet.

Hope the tips would help

you guys.
