Java Forum / General / June 2006SCJP exam ?
New to Java stuff. How many exams are required to become SCJP? And what are the exam ? None are required to write the SCJP. You can write it at most prometric testing centres. Check out the Sun sit sun.java.com for all the details. To become an SCJP you only have to write the SCJP exam - typed before I properly Are you talking about writing or taking the exam? > To become an SCJP you only have to write the SCJP exam - typed before I > properly I typed my response before I read the original post properly. I apologise for my poorly worded posts - Been a long week. > Are you talking about writing or taking the exam? The phrase "writing an exam" is commonly used in some parts of the world to mean the same thing as "taking an exam". I don't live is such a part of the world so it sorta jolts me, too, but I've seen it often enough to know that it's normal.  SignatureChris Smith - Lead Software Developer / Technical Trainer MindIQ Corporation Well, thats what I thought. How can writing an exam makes you certified. Got confused :-) > > Are you talking about writing or taking the exam? > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Chris Smith - Lead Software Developer / Technical Trainer > MindIQ Corporation Writing (and passing) the exam does make you a certified Java programmer, as it is a certification exam - why the confusion with this? > Writing (and passing) the exam does make you a certified Java > programmer, as it is a certification exam - why the confusion with > this? It's just a language issue. The phrase "writing an exam" can have two different meanings: 1. Creating a set of questions for others to answer. 2. Answering a set of questions that already exists. You clearly mean sense (2). When I (and apparently others) see the phrase, sense (1) is what first occurs to me. As I said, though, it's clear that some part of the world regularly uses the phrase "writing an exam" to mean (2). This probably led to the confusion on "SuperCoder"'s part. It's just a figure of speech that's not universally understood. SignatureChris Smith - Lead Software Developer / Technical Trainer MindIQ Corporation Well explained. In my backwater country we would say "set a paper" to describe sense (1).
