Difficulty level of Sun's J2SE5 Certification Exam?

The one I'm talking about is the one here: http://www.sun.com/training/catalog/courses/CX-310-055.xml
I've browsed over what the test covers, and I feel fairly confident about most things, except for synchronization, advanced generic usage, bitwise operations (such as &, |, >>, etc...), regex, java/javac, and a few more things that I've only dealt with a few times.
Although only a score of 59% is required to pass, I am aware of how evil these exams can be, and as the test is $150, it's not something I'd take without know I'd pass.
Has anyone here taken it before?

SF Employee Central Associate Level Certification Exam preparation

Folks,
Did anyone give or know of any person who has given the new EC Associate Level Certification Exam rolled out by SAP / SF from 1st of October 2014? This is the new way of getting certified.
I would like to know how do we prepare for it apart from the EC Academy training and going through Implementation Handbooks? I have already completed the EC Academy and want to practice some questions and the pattern. Is there any way we can get sample questions for preparations? Since this is a new format for EC certification, people are nervous on how to best prepare for it.
The format includes 80 multiple choice questions with the pass mark being 63. On the certification website (SAP Learning Hub) there is a pdf with sample questions but there are only 9 questions. Need a few more.
Any information / lead will be highly appreciated.
https://training.sap.com/shop/certification/c_thr81_1405-sap-certified-application-associate---sap-hcm-cloud-employee-central-g/
Thanks,
Yash

Hi Jignya Joshi,
As per your recent post, you have completed your EC Certification (C_THR81_1405).
Could you please provide how to prepare for exam and how is the exam for you?
From where i can complete EC Mastery/academy? i have access to 'Cloud Learning Center' (https://sa.plateau.com/learning/user/personal/viewPersonalHome.do?ignoreBackLink=Y) is this sufficient to complete?
For each course structure 'launch quiz' link is there, is these quiz questions are helpful for certification?
Thanks,
Seshu Chunduri.

CRM 5.0 Certification Exam

Hi All
Has anyone done the C_CR10_50 certification exam? I am doing it this month and would like to know anyones view on the level of difficulty.
If anyone could share their experience then that would be great
Regards
Avi

Hi,
For SAP Certification exam there are few things you need to ensure:
1. You should be thorough with CR_10 pdf document that you would have got through training.
2. For every topic and every slide try to understand from SAP Help if there are any gaps in your understanding.
3. Get an access to a SAP system to have an idea about look and feel.
4. There are several multiple choice questions with multiple correct answers therefore need to be careful answering those questions.

Deepak

Oracle Certification Exam Design (Part 1) – Exam Design Philosophy

In this three-part video series, Joel Goodman – Global Team leader of the Oracle DBA certification exam development team – gives some great insight to Oracle’s philosophy to exam development.

[Watch video| http://bit.ly/2LdOO1] (4:50)
Oracle Certification Exam Design (Part 1) – Exam Design Philosophy
Joel talks about the history of Oracle’s exam development methodologies and how they have changed from since the program first launched. There are some real hidden gems in Joel’s presentation. Understanding how we develop our exams can give you some great insight to how you can best study and prepare to earn your Oracle Certification.

Hi,
I recently completed my PL/SQL exam. I hope you have taken a course on that. Oracle Courseware is the best to prepare for the exam. THere are unscored questions on that.
There aree lot of questions on procedures,functions,subprograms,packages,lobs, trggers and depedencies.
You need to clearly understand the difference between package specification and package body, where you need to use subprograms, the difference between row level trigger and statement level trigger, Directory Object used to create Lob, UTl, Dependencies, how to invoke procedures and functions.
Thanks

Java certification exam

I've been using Sun's Java Certification practice exam (WGS-PREX-J025B / http://suned.sun.com/US/certification/java/java_progj2se.html) and I'm wondering how similar the practice questions are to the actual exam.
I also downloaded the freebie version of JCertify (http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/sightings/S3.html) which seems more detailed and difficult than the above.
Any comments comparing these two practice exams to each other, or to the actual certification exam, will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
as you surely know, nobody who actually did the exam can answer those questions because of an confidential statement you have to sign for taking the exam, BUT
for the programmer's exam I learned with the book "Complete Java 2 Certification Study Guide", ISBN 0-7821-2825-4, did the sample questions in the book and the attched CD and... I took it successfully!
Good luck!

Hi,
Can somebody explain when exam results should be visible in 'Certification History' and when in 'Exam History' in CertView?
I'm little confused because I thought when all exams for certificate are passed then results should not be visible in 'Exam History' only but also in 'Certification History'.
Two weeks ago I passed [1Z0-047 Oracle Database SQL Expert|http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=189] exam and after some problems I'm finally able to see result in CertView,
but it's in 'Exam History' only and i'm not sure is it correct or it's another problem because there are no more exams for this certificate so shouldn't be also marked as certificate under 'Certification History' ?
ThanksThe answer is that it should. And should be in shipment status soon also.
However there may be a lag between the two.
(Exam history load process may be different to certification evaluation process ... which is a set of rules).
And as Sun/Java Certifications are currently being loaded there may be a delay/problem that wouldn't normally occur.
Your OTN registration is today .. so that you've only just logged into certview ... so some problems with that may just have been cleared also.
My suggestion is to wait 2 days (or at least 24 hours) and if it doesn't correct itself raise an issue: http://education.oracle.com/pls/eval-eddap-dcd/OU_SUPPORT_OCP.home?p_source=OCP

Fortunately, I took the two financial beta exams on 13rd and 14th. The number of the questions in the beta exam is too much for a foreigner (I'm a Chinese), because we need some more time to read and undertand the questions. Anyway, I answered the most of the questions at the last second and have the confidence to pass at least one exam:-)

Preparation for SAP HCM Associate Certification Exam

Hi,
I am preparing for SAP HCM Associate Certification exam, and I have got only five days in my hand.
I want to know how can I utilize these five days in preparation very effectively, basically on which portion of the syllabus I must give more importance.
I also want to know at what level the toughness of the questions are asked in certification weather it is direct questions/tricky questions or just basics questions.
I have tested my skills in www.daypo.net where I found the questions asked on this website for practice was very tough. I have scored only 34% out of 80 questions.
Currently I have four materials THR10_1, THR10_2, THR12_1 & THR12_2, is that there will be direct questions from this materials.
I want to pass the certification.
Can anyone please help me out.
Regards,
Kunal Sinha

Hi Kunal
I was going through the questions online, some of them are easy ones and some of them require hands-on experience in SAP HCM,
I am new to SAP HCM and planning to write the SAP HCM exam soon, The online sample questions for SAP HCM are mostly based on the practical knowledge of configuration, is there a book available through which I can practice real case scenarios so that I can have better understanding of SAP HCM to give the exam. Any suggestions and exam related info is appreciated.
Please reply.
Thanks so much

Why was the certification exams so restricted at TechEd Bangalore?

Hi,
I have a question around the eligibility to sit the certification exams in Bangalore. The criteria was:
A fully paid SAP TechEd '06 Bangalore conference registrant as on October 20, 2006; AND
A registered SAP consultant (SAP employee, partner, or independent) in India; OR
An SAP Customer Core Competency Center team member in India; OR
An employee of an SAP partner or customer in India.
As an Australian, visiting from IBM Australia - I met only the first of the eligibility criteria - I was a fully paid registrant. Does this mean the level of certification is different country by country? Did the Las Vegas and Amsterdam Tech Ed's have the same level of restriction?
Any thoughts/insight is greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Brett

As we are discussing SAP certifications, I just thought I'd share a few more rules ( Bizarre rules I must say) of the tech ED B'lore Certifications.
" Every aspirant of the tech ED certification should have had one Year of employment with his current employer and should have atleast 2 years of SAP implementation experience"
In my case, as I joined the SAP world directly after university, I could not meet the rule of "2 years of SAP implementation experience" and was not allowed to take up my XI certification
I guess experience does matter , but what is most surprising is if you take the SAP training on XI, you are allowed to take the certification along with it and in such cases experience doesnt matter!
When Netweaver is a fusion of both the Java and ABAP worlds ( with Webdynpro , EP and even in XI ) the fact that people are still required to have 2 years of SAP experience is not fair.
What this rule implies for all the people who move in from the J2EE world into SAP Netweaver is that you got to work in the technology for 2 years before you qualify for the certification or you attended the training SAP provides and you can take it immediately.
Maybe someone can explain this double standards or the reasoning behind the same?
Regards
Bhavesh
