[205 byte] By [srikanthreddya] at [2007-11-26 17:22:40] 
Hi,I am new to Java with 6 months of experience. I am planning to take Java Certification. But I am confused which one to go for, either SCJP 1.4 or 5.0. Please help me.Thnx in advance
If you're taking a poll, my recommendation is to go with the more current certification.~

Thnx for the info but I am not able to understand what the difference is between the two (Except for the pattern of the exams). Is there any difference in the difficulty of the exam?

They cover different versions of the JDK.

They have different passing scores. They cover slightly different material. How relatively difficult the exams is in no small part a function of the person taking the exam.

got to kno from one of my frnd whoz cleared SCJP 1.4 with 92% tat
SCJP 1.4 is :
1) more code based
2) practical
whereas SCJP 5.0 is:
1) more technical based
2) theoritical
So she says takin 1.4 wud help more while workin on projects
Anyways anyone whoz taken in 1.5 pls post ur comments on this...
