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: <http://www.amazon.com/Programmer-Study-Guide-1Z0-803-Certification/dp/0071772006/> OCA/OCP Java SE 7 Programmer I & II Study Guide (Exams 1Z0-803 & 804) (Certification Press) [Hardcover] Kathy Sierra (Author), Bert Bates (Author)

I will suggest: 1) Get a good Java beginners book 2) Supplement with stuff on the internet like the official Java tutorial 3) Get a study guide for that specific certification Arne

See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/gettingstarted.html the most important thing is to find yourself some projects to implement. Just reading texts gives you a very shallow understanding. A project motivates you to dig in. See http://mindprod.com/project/projects.html for some project ideas. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com The iPhone 5 is a low end Rolex.
