this was done by one of the Infosys Trainee during the training in Kings Hotel in May-July.

Guess what: She did this using MS Paint only!

One of the thing i did preparing for my SCJP exam was trying out as many sample questions available.
I also tried a exam simulator called ExamLab for SCJP 6.0

ExamLab for SCJP 6.0 is a free exam simulator that is designed for the Sun exam, "Sun Certified Java Programmer 6.0". This simulator contains one diagnostic exam, three practice exams and one final exam.

Real Exam Interface

Objective-based questions
All of the questions in our product are fully oriented on the Sun exam objectives. Nothing is out of scope.

Detailed explanations
Detailed explanations are provided in the review mode.
Exam History
Your exam history will be saved automatically for further evaluation.

I can say one of the reason i passed my SCJP exam was with the help of the simulator. It was very helpful in getting the real exam feel as it's format is very similar to the real exam. The questions are even tougher than real exam questions, but the explanations was quite helpful in understanding various types of questions being asked in real exam.

Unlike many other exam simulators, this one is totally FREE. Feel free to browse the website to download the software.

P/S: i'll write about the book i study for m exam preparation in next entry.

Before

After

Hmm... what is the purpose of "downgrading"?
May be...
1. more students can get 1st class and their ptptn can become scholarship?
2. to standardize with other universities?
3. syllabus are getting tougher?
4. etc...

what ever it is... its a good news for students. Hope they score better.

one day a rabbit laughed at a tortoise. "you are slow, too slow! you are weak!".
the tortoise said nothing as it was sad.
it left the tortoise far behind with just one hop.
on the way...
a snail requested if the rabbit can carry it?
"no way!, u'll make me slow, and you are dirty!" replied the rabbit.
"hop on my back, i'll carry you" said the tortoise to the snail.
The tortoise offered another snail a lift on the way.
When the second snail hop in, the first snail said:
"hold on tight!, this tortoise is fast!"

we might always think that we are slow, we are weak. But always remember you are not too slow or too weak to help others! You might be fast and strong, but its selfish if you don't help people who need them.
