Review:
If you are studying for OCPJP 7 examination, then I find this book is
very useful. You could be a professional who wants to brush-up on Java
APIs, you could be a trainer for Core Java, or you could be someone who
just want to pass the exam. This book is very well-organized and it
covers all the topics for OCPJP 7 in required depth.
The
first chapter contains OCPJP 7 examination FAQs that provides OCPJP 7
certification overview, kinds of questions that come in this
certification examination, details about how to prepare for it and the
most interesting things as well as very useful information for readers
who is going to give this kind of certification examination for the
first time, that is how to register, what to do on the examination day,
etc.
The
second chapter contains a pre-test; this chapter will be useful to
check your current-level of knowledge and find your weakness before you
start. A new learner can skip this chapter as this chapter required
beginners/intermediate knowledge in Java.
Rest
of the twelve chapters covers all the topics required for OCPJP 7 with
examples to explain the APIs and tricks, this chapters end with a test
named "Question Time!" to check reader's learning and most important
thing there is a summary section at the end of each chapter which is a
great help for quick recap. Apart from this there is a "Points to
Remember" section to which highlight the tricky parts covered in that
section.
At
the end there are two OCPJP 7 mock exams which will help reader for
final preparation and check actual preparedness for the examination.
I really enjoyed reading it. I recommend this book for OCPJP 7 certification and as a Core Java book.
