To achieve good score in Certification

and code given in the book.
(b) Do lot of mock (practice) exams (You can find lot of free exams on internet) as much as you can.
You will get to know good tricks in the programming by doing this.

(c) Register for the exam at

Finally at the Exam...
The time given to complete the exam will be more than sufficient. So, there is no
need to hurry at all. Answer the questions carefully after reading and understanding
the question thoroughly as there will be lot of smart traps in the questions.
The hard part of the exam is the threads section. Concentrate
more on that one and study well to get good score. One can easily achieve above 90% with good
preparation. The book can be studied within 15-20 days if you can spend 3 to 4 hours/day. Take 2-3 weeks time to do practice exams and then register the
exam.
Good Luck.
