Java Mock Exams

I want to obtain Java mock exam questions. Can anyone help me ?

Go to JavaRanch's mock exam site (http://www.javaranch.com/mock.jsp)
They have an entire section of some really good mock exams. Marcus Green's tests are very good, the site also has a "Rules Roundup" game that tests you on Java rules.
Using the mock exams and Bill Brogden's "Exam Cram" (I understand it is no longer published - publisher went out) I recently achieved my SCJP....

  • Java Developer Exam.

    I'm thinking of taking the Java Developer exam.
    People who have done the Java Developer exam, could you please contribute with your help by answering these questions ?
    1. How long did you program in Java before taking the exam on ?
    2. How long did it take for you to complete the programming task ?
    3. Was it more difficult than the Java Programmer exam ?
    4. Is it worth to take it ?
    5. What was the hardest part of the exam ?
    Other comments on the Java Developer exam are welcomed as well.
    Cheers
    /Andreas

    Here is what I would recommend, based on my experience:
    * Take the mock exams - the tests at javacertificate.com do a good job of helping you identify your strengths and weaknesses. Dan Chisholm's mock exams are tough, but also good for opening your eyes to some things you might not have thought about.
    * Concentrate on your weaknesses (mine were assertions, garbage collections, and threads).
    * Practice your butt off writing code. Practice, practice, practice. And DON'T use an IDE. Code with a simple text editor and compile from the command line. The test is going to tax your ability to "compile" in your head and you don't want an IDE doing that work for you.
    * Familiarize yourself with the Exam objectives. Know those inside and out, and you'll have no trouble with the test. Don't waste time on non-covered topics (e.g. java.io, java.awt).
    * Figure out why you want this certification. It's not going to win you any admirers among the gurus. It's probably not going to get you a job. It doesn't mean you can code your way out of a wet paper bag. It's just the start of your journey in Java.
    For me, it was something I wanted to prove to myself - a self-taught, entry-level programmer at the time - I could get. It helped me tremendously in my understanding of basic Java, so I don't regret obtaining the cert one bit. I also realize I have a LONG way to go. So, good luck, study hard, practice, practice, practice, and let us know how you do! If I can be of any help, let me know. :o)

  • New Version of Mock Exam

    The new version of my mock exam for the Java Programmer Certification is available at the URL that appears at the end of this post. The new version has a set of two Basic Exams and also a set of 144 questions distributed across ten topic specific exams and alternatively organized as a set of eight comprehensive exams.
    This new version has 43 new questions relative to the old version. Most of the new questions are concentrated in three new topics: Constructors, Strings, and StringBuffers. The three new topics can be found on the Topic Exam page or you can find all 43 questions organized as a set of two exams on the New Questions page.
    My exams are very difficult. First time visitors are encouraged to start with the set of two Basic Exams. Try the Topic Exams next and use them as you work through your study guide chapter-by-chapter. For example, if you complete a chapter that covers inheritance, then try the Inheritance exam. The Comprehensive Exams should be saved for last. Those that have already completed my exams should try the New Questions page.
    The answer pages contain explanations for the answers and links to reference materials such as the Java Language Specification and a link back to this message board.
    My home page contains a set of exams organized by date. Always use the latest version since the older versions may be deleted without notice.

    I have a question for those on this message board that are certified java programmers. Do you feel that studying for the exam was a valuable learning experience? Can you give an example of something interesting that you learned while studying for your certification?

  • Java Programming Exam v1.4

    Could anyone please e-mail me at [email protected] with information and tutorials with regards to the Sun Certified Java Programmer exam for Java 1.4. I know it sounds stupid, but i've only been learning and programming with java for approx. 2 months and some of the subjects covered in the exam i haven't looked at due to a lack of resouces.
    Thank you to anyone who replies and any help is greatly appreciated.

    Could anyone please e-mail me at [email protected]..
    First, don't ask people to reply by private email. Most Forum regulars believe solving problems should be a public, transparent process during which a first try at an answer can and should be corrected if someone more knowledgeable notices that it is incomplete or incorrect. Also, they get some of their reward for being respondents from being seen to be competent and knowledgeable by their peers (not to mention the possibility of collecting some of those precious Duke Dollars).
    Second, in response to your question:

  • Mock exams & tips wanted for programmers exam

    Hi there, I am taking the 'Sun Microsystem's' exam in 'Java Programming',in just over 4 weeks. I wondered apart from taking a clean pair of underpants to the exam, or selling my soul to the devil, if some of you have any constructive advice.
    First of all I would appreciate any addresses of websites that may have mock papers of the actual exam.
    Secondly is there anything else you would strongly recommend I should do in preparation.
    I would be extremely grateful for your help, thanks, Dave.
    [email protected]

    Check out http://www.javaranch.com/certfaq.jsp
    Other than that, get a good certification prep book and work through it. My favorite is A Programmers Guide to Java Certification - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201596148/ , but there are several good ones. You'll probably need to try a few things out by writing simple code. Mock exams, including those in the books, are great preparation, although you'll find that some of them are lower quality than others. One piece of advice - don't pay for mock exams - it's just not necessary.
    Good Luck

  • Mock exams for 1Z0-047

    Does anyone know of any official mock exams for the SQL Expert exam (1Z0-047)? All I can find are dodgy brain dump sites...
    Also how realistic are the questions in the Master Exams that come with OCA Oracle Database SQL Certified Expert Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-047) (Osborne Oracle Press Series) - Steve O'Hearn? The questions at the end of each chapter seem far too simple to me and are much easier than the 7 or so sample questions on the Oracle page for this exam. Any thoughts from those who have taken the exam and used this book?

    ( The questions the the end of the first few chapters are trivial ... they then become more relevant ).
    Well I found the book helpful and from what I can remember the practice tests helped point some gaps I had.
    Typically I think I find real exams sometimes need a bit longer than that on some of the practice tests.
    I personally only use practice tests when i think i have learnt all material as a check to where i'm at and to identify gaps.
    I will even leave the end of chapter tests under i think i have grasped everything.
    And I will never take end of chapter tests if i have read that chapter earlier in the day!
    ( If i get tempted must take end of chapter tests early then i choose a reasonably meaty chapter about 1/3 into the book).
    The book was enough for me .... but it may not be so for everyone ... we can be different and start from different places.
    Someone mentioned they got rhu the test easily in an hour .... well i was pushing time the whole way through!

  • Confusing SCJP 6 mock exam questions

    Given:
    *class StringSplit {*
    *public static void main(String [] args) {*
    String s = "x1234 y56 z7 a";
    String [] sa = s.split("\d");
    int count = 0;
    for( String x : sa)
    count++;
    System.out.println("total: " + count);
    What is the result?
    The "correct" answer for this question on the guide I'm using is 8.
    I chose "Compilation Fails" based on my prior experience with other mock exams because some questions like these say that \d needs an extra \ (so \\d). For crying out loud, I even tested this code and it failed due to the missing escape.
    Anyway, when I run into this type of question on the SCJP, and there's something like \d or \w or \s showing up, should I assume that it's a valid delimiter or assume that it's not escaped properly?
    Thank you.

  • 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!

  • Java Developer Exam Questions

    I got my JCP certification a while ago and have been debating if it is even worth it to go forth and get the Developer certification. A colleague of mine told me that certification exams for specific technologies are generally good only for contract work, not for full-time employees. He suggested rather than wasting my time and money on exams that I should take night classes and work towards a masters.
    So this is really a two part question, first of all do you think it is worth the money and time? Secondly, what kind of project assignment could I expect to get if I sign up for it?

    well certification in itself is a buzzword which
    might be missing.No one expects a developer with 10 years of
    experience to have a developer certification in the
    CV. It might actually make the CV look odd /
    suspicious. Why have a developer certification in
    there if you already have lots of experience?
    KajWell I have personally interviewed 10s of developers with 10 years of experience, but actually it turned out that they had 10 * 1year experience. Certifications are just a proff that you have worked on that technology as well. We are not talking about just java certifications. e.g. if I am hiring a java developer with 10 years of java experience who has an oracle certification as well, and I need somebody in the team to have a good understanding of databases it would be beneficial.
    Or if the job requires some level of tibco experience, tibco certification would be good to have. Certifications just serve a hint that the applicant has some level of proficiency in the field he has been certified in. A j2ee enterprise architect certification might give one an idea that the applicant is familar with some practices in enterprise architecture. 10 years experience might not guarantee that, plus you might agree a lot of resumes you see these days of mid level developers, claim some kind of architectural exp., thought they might not even know of GoF patterns let alone Enterprise integration patterns. If I have two resumes in front of me with same amount of experience, one with a lot of certifications and the other just experience I would prefer the former, since atleast i know somebody has already done the pre screening for me.
    I know what you are talking about, but I always encourage developers to go for certifications and not just java certifications,.
    PS. I am not talking about entry level certifications only.

  • Question from mock exam for SCJP 5

    Hi everyone,
    I have encountered this question:
    class Game{ }
    class Cricket extends Game{ }
    class Instrument{ }
    class Guitar extends Instrument{ }
    interface Player<E>{ void play(E e); }
    interface GamePlayer<E extends Game> extends Player<E>{ }
    interface MusicPlayer<E extends Instrument> extends Player{ }Identify valid declarations.
    And one of the possible answers is (which is not correct):
    class MidiPlayer implements MysicPlayer {
       public void play(Guitar) {}
    }And the explanation given why it is a wrong answer is:
    "Observe that this is a non-typed usage of MusicPlayer. Since MusicPlayer has not been typed to
    anything, that means, it should be able to work with any object. Thus, MidiPlayer must have a
    method play(Object )."
    But this explanation in my opinion is wrong as play(Object) would not satisfy MusicPlayer
    interface. It would have to be play(Instrument) ... Am I right here ?
    Cheers,
    Adrian

    But this explanation in my opinion is wrong as play(Object) would not satisfy MusicPlayer
    interface. It would have to be play(Instrument) ... Am I right here ?
    Cheers,
    AdrianYes, and no.
    play(Object) WOULD satisfy the MusicPlayer interface, because Object is the super class of Instrument. The requirement for a class to implement an interface is that its parameter types be able to accept the types specified in the interface, and its return type be a type or subtype of the return type from the interface.
    So technially, it should be instrument, BUT
    It is perfectly valid to accept any super type of Instrument, which includes java.lang.Object. The point is that if I do this:
    MusicPlayer musicPlayer = new MidiPlayer();
    musicPlayer.play(new Guitar());This MUST be legal. Since MidiPlayer has a play operation that is void and accepts an Object (which a Guitar happens to be a subtype of), this is legal. The restriction is that the play method cannot take type Guitar, because not all Instruments are Guitars, and the play method cannot take String, for example, because an Instrument is not a String. But it can define a parameter of type Object, because all Instruments are Objects.
    I'm not sure if that made much sense, but that's the answer you're looking for. Here's the relevent section from the JLS:

  • Java Certification Exams and Their Move to Pearson VUE

    You may be aware that Oracle recently migrated all Sun-branded certification exams from Prometric to Pearson VUE. Here are answers to some frequently-asked questions that we've been getting recently: http://bit.ly/ORC-0596

    I have the same issue, I purchased 3 exam packs from Prometric, when the new year started I was ok let's get to work, tired to schedule my first test, 70-247 I could not schedule no more, PearsonVue informed me that these vouchers are invalid for 3 tests
    only for one, I went back and forth between Prometric, PearsonVue & Microsoft, Microsoft decided to take over case, but it has been since the end of the year and now we are in Feb. 2015 issue is still not resolved is it soooo hard to look at past records
    and just issue single vouchers for the tests I purchased, do not know I will call them again this week, if it is not resolved I guess I will try Social Media or just cave in and ask for a refund, in which I do not want to I have worked hard studied hard, but
    calling and going back and forth without no resolution is just a total was of time, I am not made of money at all.........
