Java SE 7 Programmer I - Exam 1Z0-803

Hi,
I need help with exam topics detail, i have bought the "Java the complete reference Eight Edition by Herbert Schildt" from Oracle Press for $68.95 in effort to prepare for the exam above the problem is the topics are not detailed enough and there are no books currently available for this exam yet but i would like to take it.
Why did oracle leave it vague like this? I'm a student and i don't have thousands of dollars to attend 5 days Oracle class nor i can wait until June-July 22 for a study guide books!
Your help is needed.
the two that i'm confused about so far are:
[] Define the structure of a java class.
[] Create executable java application with a main method.

It has been this way for years. The disgruntled answer might be so that Oracle will co-erce you to pay for the training course. But its not quite that simple. And part of the idea is to make you explore to become conversation with the area.
Your help is needed.

A couple of suggstions though:
... You may find that the topic corresponds with a logical point in the documentation associated with the topic and section.
... You may find looking at the contents of the topics for the asociated Oracle Training Course help indicate what is needed. (Perhaps rarely but can help).
... You may find and exam orientated book for an earlier version of say Java 6 SE still has 50%-80% relevance for the Java 7 SE topics.
...... These are suggestions only.

Study guide for OCA Java SE 7 Programmer I, exam 1Z1-803

Are there any study guides available for this exam? Is it ok to use a book that is based on Java SE 6? Something like this parhaps: http://www.amazon.com/Certified-Associate-Study-CX-310-019-Certification/dp/0071490035/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1319735603&sr=8-1
The exam I want to study for is a beta exam. I'm not sure if I should study for this beta exam or the old SE 6 exam. Thoughts?

I'm agree for the suppose that Oracle left the exam topics very vague !!!!!
If you want to prepare you must study on book based on java basics and you can prepare online Java 7 Api .
It's easy learn Java 7 i tried in 2 month and now is ok eheheh :)
A guide is not the same as a good book you can find online so much tutorials but you will learn more with a good book .
For me you can use tutorials only for base guide then you can learn more with a book
Good study :)

Time effort for Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer 1Z0-803

I have no previous knowledge in Java. My only programming skills is Oracle SQL (passed 1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals I).
What's the time effort for passing Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer 1Z0-803? From zero to exam? Hours?

Java SE 7 Programmer II 1Z0-804 requirements

https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=653&get_params=p_id:154#tabs-1-1
states that Prior Certification Requirements for Java SE 7 Programmer II 1Z0-804 exam is Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer exam.
But there are Java SE 8 Programmer I 1Z0-808 certification available. Can it be considered satisfactory for 1Z0-804?
By the way, when these requirements are checked? Right now I'm able to schedule 1Z0-804 exam at pearsonvue.com despite I have no Associate Java SE 7 Programmer certificate.

My understanding ( which is not authoritative) is that a version 'x+1' OCA cannot be used in conjunction with version 'x' 'OCP' exam to produce an version 'x' certification.
One reason I can think of is some topics in the 'OCA' exam of release 'x' might move to the 'OCP' exam of version 'x+1'; or vice versa. The other reason is oracle want to encourage you to go for the later release and not to give you an incentive to go for a lower release as OCP. If you want to go for OCP at the the lower release then doing the OCA at the lower level should not be a big ask.

Exams can be scheduled whenever you like in whatever order you like.
Effectively when Pearson VUE notifies Oracle of an exam pass or [successful course verification ... which is treated like a pseudo exam pass] the candidate's exam history is examined to trigger any new certifications for which the candidate has become eligible.

Study Guide book for Java Certified Associate SE 5/6 Exam 1Z0-850

Hello All!
I'm a student and Just finished my java course. I planning to take the Java Certified Associate SE 5/6 Exam 1Z0-850 ASAP. My questions:
1) Is there a study guide available for this (thought I could fine OCA SE7 which will be released only on Aug 2012. Can't wait that long)? is
2) I read that there's no pre-req for this exam or is there?
I really need a study guide for this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

1Z0-803 or 1Z0-850?

Hi,
I'm planning to take the Java Associate Programmer exam (and after that, the OCP for Java). I have 2 points of view, and i need an advice/recommendation. So:
1) Take 1Z0-850 (Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 5/SE 6, which covers topics such as Fundamental Object-Oriented Concepts, Java Implementation of Object-Oriented Concepts and so on, not covered in 1Z0-803), and then 1Z0-851 to become a Java SE 6 Certified Professional.
2) Take directly 1Z0-803 (Java SE 7 Associate), which does not cover topics such as the basics of OO and other introductory notions about the Java Language and the architecture, etc (as 1Z0-850), but contains just "techincal" topics (Working With Java Data Types, Arrays, etc).
Maybe if i opt for 2), i should already have knowledge of those introductory concepts about Java and OO? or it is not mandatory..
I think if i take first 1Z0-850, and then 1Z0-851 - Oracle Certified Professional, Java SE 6 Programmer, and then upgrading the certification to Java SE 7 Professional, i will pay much more ( than taking 1Z0-803 and finally 1Z0-804 to become an OCP (so just 2 exams)
So what do you recommend, option 1 or 2?
One more question: when i go to "Upgrade an existing certification", at http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=458&get_params=p_track_id:JSE7Prog#1 , i see that only "Professional" certifications can be upgraded (Any version Oracle Certified Professional, Java Programmer OR Any version Sun Certified Java Programmer); so Associate cannot be? e.g. upgrading from 1Z0-850 to 1Z0-803 (which i have mentioned above)

IMHO For certifications in general:
(1) For most people, unless there are other factors, taking certification on the latest version would seem usually to be the sensible course. Factors against it might include for example if training, especially and mandatory training, for the earlier version was more accessible or cheaper.
(2)
- Typically for OCA's the difference between OCA(ver (x)) and OCA(ver (x-1)) will be one exam. On this basis there is no point for Oracle(or the candidate) in an upgrade exam, simply take the OCA(ver (x)) exam.
- IMHO It is also important for OCA's to focus on getting to OCP standard which should provide a fuller and more rounded view of the product; rather than concentrating on new features.
- (The typical example here would be 1z0-053 which concentrates a lot on backup ... would one want a DBA OCA focusing on exotic new features before he has demonstrated mastery of backup).
- For OCP to (ver (x)) from (OCP (ver (x-1)) via OCA would be 2 exams (twice the cost). An upgrade exam here is a single exam cost.
- The upgrade exam here allows Oracle to focus on OCP level candidates concentrating on the new features of the latest version, where their knowledge gap will be.
- (and also where Oracle needs to get this knowledge into the community).

Oracle Certified Professional, Java SE 7 Programmer

Hi all,
I would like to take this exam (the professional, not the associate). But I'm not sure if I first have to take the associate to then be allowed to take the professional. Or can I take the professional directly even if I have no certification?
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=505
Thanks in advance!

You have to pass 1Z0-803 Java SE 7 Programmer I for OCA and than take 1Z0-804 Java SE 7 Programmer II for OCP.

Expirence recommended for "1Z0-803 Oracle Certified Associate"

1Z0-803 Oracle Certified Associate, Java SE 7 Programmer

Hi, as the previous answer suggests there is no recommended experience required to pass this exam. I passed the 1Z0-803 after 3 months prep. I was new to Java though have prior C++ experience.
If you are able to read and understand all the tutorials at the below link you will probably be ready to take the exam.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/extra/certification/javase-7-programmer1.html
The only advice I'd have is to practice working through questions at faster than a leisurely pace because you need to get through all the questions to pass.
There are lots of study guides for Java 6 certification and they will all help you pass this exam. For this exam, have a look at :
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/language/enhancements.html#javase7
for the new features in Java 7 and you won't be caught out.

Exam 1Z0-007 and questions from Controlling User Access

Hi,
I am preparing for exam 1Z0-007 and going to give this exam in two weeks. I like to confirm if "Controlling User Access" topic is part of this exam 1Z0-007? I have checked on Oracle website and this topic is not a part if this exam anymore unless they add it later.
Has anyone recently given this exam and were there any questions related to "Controlling User Access" or user Privileges?
Thanks

ThanksI recommend people are very very very careful in answering this question as it could be very easy to breach one's certification candidate agreement.

It is certainly true the topic you mentioned is in ISBN: 007-219537-1 printed in 2001.
It is also apparent, unless bigdelboy's eyeball is deceiving him, the topic does not appear in [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=28&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_007] which is authorative.
I have not followed these things that closely until recently, however this will not be the only example of an OraclePress/Sybex book being left behind because of errata/topic updates etc. These often occur when the exams are update for new releases, eg from 10gR1 to 10gR2; or for when the exam moves from beta to production (sometimes these books are prepared and even pulbished while exam is in beta). In your case I suspect the change quite probably have occured when the exam moved from 9gR1 to 9gR2 or to better accomodate the WDP programme. The exam may also be influenced by the content of Oracle training courses that are being taught and from time to time these will be chaged for a variety of reasons.
How you handle it is up to you ..... you may:
- ignore these topics. IMHO you are always entitled to complain if questions asked did not sigificantly match the published topics and you feel this caused you to fail. (I assume the remedy would be a retake voucher). You can hit a comment button on the question and also a comment button the the end of the exam. This is a sort of negative approproach.
- Go over these topics. If your're serious about Oracle you really need to understand this anyway. See it as an opportunity. A few hours revision ought tosee you able to answer 50% of he topics. This is a positive approach. And this if how certification study ought to be .... sometimes it good to investigate a non examined topic that is interesting.
