I actually took the SJCP exam way back when I first started with Java. 
The exam itself was a piece of cake and not really worth the effort, 
however studying for it helped me learn Java.

I recommend exam books by Kathy Sierra if you're going to take the exam, 
she seems to have the most comprehensive books.  I used an earlier 
version, but this looks like the current study guide:

OCA/OCP Java SE 7 Programmer I & II Study Guide (Exams 1Z0-803 & 804) 
(Certification Press) [Hardcover]
