Summary: Very Good book, could be better, software not so good
Comment: I thought the book was well done. It was very helpful and very easy to read and understand the material. It took me less than 2 weeks to read the chapters and finish all the practice questions for the Java 2 Programmer Certification. It does cover all the topics in the exam. I passed the certification exam on my first try and I don't have real world development experience yet. Just reading the book isn't enough though because the exam has very tricky questions. This was the only Certification book for Java that I bought to study with and I believe I made the right choice. This book was a great review for me and help me strengthen the areas I was weak in. There are a few typos in the book but they are pretty easy to figure out.
The CD needs help. Many errors. After taking the practice exams twice you already memorize the answers so it is no longer helpful. I suggest using other sources for practicetests but be careful because practice test questions if you don't verify if their answers are correct and why they are correct, could make you make mistakes on the real exam or jumble up the java knowledge you already have.

Summary: # 1 for me
Comment: Java 2 Certification Guide is well-organized and very detailed. The book is very good at helping me remember things I forgot and sufficiently detailed to teach me the things I didn't know. The book has extensive questions/answers, exam reviews, and more. Hundreds of practice questions and exercises--and more than any other Java certification book I looked at. If you are looking for a Java certification book or even a book to learn more about Java programming, I think this is the one. I recommend it.

Summary: Excellent book for Java 1.4 exams
Comment: The Java 1.4 Exam 310-035 is the actual one I used this book to study for. One thing I didn't mention is that the version of this book I had only covered the 1.2 exam. Thanks for my friend's recommendation I skipped the java.io and java.awt discussions when studying for the Java 1.4 exam. The Java 1.4 exam also covers wrappers, collections and assertions. Wrapper classes are covered in this book on pages 301 to 305 so this gave me what I needed to know based on the 310-035 exam objectives. In this book pages 314 to 318 cover collections and gave me a good start on what I needed to know for the exam. I also used a few java web sites to help me study collections, wrappers and assertions just to be safe, so this book with the additional help from one of these sites should get you a good score. I'm waiting for mine now but had no trouble on the exam whatsoever.
