SCJP Preparation Tips : Sun Certified Java Professional Study Guide

By Prof Emperor

Many College Students asked me whether they need to give SCJP (OCPJP) exam or not.In this post I will try to clear many of the doubts related to SCJP.

Since Oracle releases  Java 7 , it change the name of the exams , that is SCJP (Sun Certified Java Professional ) now called OCPJP (Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer), while SCJA (Sun Certified Java Associates) now called OCA (Oracle Certified Associate).

If you want to pursue career in Java , then you should take SCJP exam .It is like an investment in yourself and in your career.So let us understand the most important question , why you need to take SCJP or OCPJP exam.

Why SCJP ?

1. It gives expression to the interviewer that you already know basics of java . Employer does not need to spend money to train you basics of Java.

2. Level of questions asked in SCJP is very good . You can give correct answer only if you precisely understand the concept. Hence , SCJP will make you study each basic topic of Java in detail.

3. After reading point 2 , you  will be scared, SCJP is tough , Can I clear it ? I spent 150$ already , what happened if I am not able to pass it ?

The solution to above questions is SCJP Dumps . Dumps is a set of  200-400 questions provided by the Oracle  for each version of Java .Every question asked in the SCJP exam will be from these 200-400 questions ,As of now  60 questions asked in SCJP 6 while 90 questions asked in SCJP 7 (OCPJP 7) .

There are three levels of Certifications from Java 7 onwards :

Basic Level  :           OCA (Oracle Certified Associate)

Intermediate Level : OCPJP (Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer)

Advance Level :       OCM (Oracle Certified Master)

We will discuss about two OCA and OCPJP.

Oracle Certified Associate (OCA) Details:





Oracle Certified Professionals Java Programmer (OCPJP 7) Details :


Note :  SCJP 6 Dumps will be different from SCJP 7 .  So if you are giving test of SCJP 7 then do not prepare the SCJP 6 Dumps . It wont help you . Try to gather SCJP 7 Dumps before giving SCJP 7 java certification.

3. Plan ahead of the time and Read from the above mentioned books very carefully. After every question , you will be able to answer WHY the question is throwing compiler error or exception or a particular option is an answer.

4.  Collect SCJP 6 (for Java 6)  or SCJP 7(for Java 7) Dumps . Register for the SCJP Test after receiving the dumps .

Note :  Many of the answers given in the Dumps are Compiler error or Exception .Don't remember only answers otherwise you might get confuse in exam . So be careful to understand WHY question is giving compiler error or exception.

#16: Tell me about a situation when your work was criticized.

By Prof Emperor
TRAPS:  This is a tough question because it’s a more clever and subtle way to get you to admit to a weakness. You can’t dodge it by pretending you’ve never been criticized. Everybody has been. Yet it can be quite damaging to start admitting potential faults and failures that you’d just as soon leave buried. This question is also intended to probe how well you accept criticism and direction. BEST ANSWERS:  Begin by emphasizing the extremely positive feedback you’ve gotten throughout your career and (if it’s true) that your performance reviews have been uniformly excellent. Of course, no one is perfect and you always welcome suggestions on how to improve your performance. Then, give an example of a not-too-damaging learning experience from early in your career and relate the ways this lesson has since helped you. This demonstrates that you learned from the experience and the lesson is now one of the strongest breastplates in your suit of armor. If you are pressed for a criticis...

#32: I’m concerned that you don’t have as much experience as we’d like in

By Prof Emperor
TRAPS:  This could be a make-or-break question. The interviewer mostly likes what he sees, but has doubts over one key area. If you can assure him on this point, the job may be yours. BEST ANSWER:  This question is related to “The Fatal Flaw” (Question 18), but here the concern is not that you are totally missing some qualifications, such as CPA certification, but rather that your experience is light in one area. Before going into any interview, try to identify the weakest aspects of your candidacy from this company’s point of view. Then prepare the best answer you possible can to shore up your defenses. To get past this question with flying colors, you are going to rely on your master strategy of uncovering the employer’s greatest wants and needs and then matching them with your strengths. Since you already know how to do this from Question 1, you are in a much stronger position.  More specifically, when the interviewer poses as objection like this, you should… 1. Agree...
