Hello Meesum,

the SAP WAS Development Consultant JAVA certification consists of 3 classroom and 2 e-learning sessions. Additionally you need advanced Java knowledge, of course.

I highly recommend to join these training's before trying to pass the certification. All(!) questions are based on the topics covered in the course curriculum. You need 70% correct answers at least.

With the workshop-knowledge the certification shouldn't be a problem for you.

Best Regards,

Mark

Thnx Mark,

Are the questions programmatic in nature or they test more the concepts? How would you rate the difficulty level?

How many questions?

Fill up the blanks or Multiple Choice Questions(MCQ).

Do MCQ have more than one correct answer?

Answering all the questions is manadatory or do you have a choice?

Can you recapitulate any of the questions for me?

I am actually trying to prepare for the test on my own which is why Im finding it slightly tough.

Neverthless thnx once again.

>Are the questions programmatic in nature or they test more the concepts?

Some questions are programmatic but the most are conceptual. Anyway you should study the included examples carefully.

>How would you rate the difficulty level?

If you participated all courses and read all necessary materials it is easy. Otherwise it will be quite hard...

>How many questions?

70

>Fill up the blanks or Multiple Choice Questions(MCQ).

There is a question catalogue of around 400 questions. So the questions are never the same. There are MCMA and MCSA.

Theoretically there are Fill-in questions, too (but I didn't get one). There are no hints like "3 answers are correct".

>Do MCQ have more than one correct answer?

It's not a checkbox but a radiobutton form. You have to specify right/ wrong for every possible answers

>Answering all the questions is manadatory or do you have a choice?

You have to answer every question. If not, the answers is always wrong

>Can you recapitulate any of the questions for me?

One question was for example: What view controller method do you need to add UI-elements dynamically? Also there are a lot of general questions around the different technlogies like "how many classes does a session-bean have"?

The number of questions for each topic refers to the official statement:

Topic Areas

1. J2EE (+++)

Servlets/JSP

EJBs

J2SE to J2EE

JNDI

Model View Controller

2. Open Integration (++)

JMS

Message Driven Beans

Web Services (UDDI, WSDL, SOAP)

SAP Enterprise Connector (JCo)

JCA

3. J2EE Persistence (++)

EJB - Entity Beans

Java Transaction API (JTA)

SQLJ

JDBC

JDO

Java Dictionary

Configuration Manager

Connecting to External DBs

EJB Security

4. Java Development Infrastructure

Component Model

Software Deployment Manager

System Landscape Directory

Design Time Repository

Component Build Service

Change Management Service

5. Web Dynpro (+++)

User Interfaces

Controller Contexts

Controller Architecture

Components

Generic UI-Services

Dynamic Programming

Models

Internationalization

Adobe Forms

Web Dynpro Security

Debugging

Popup Windows

Amount of questions by topic (as percentage of test):

+ = 1 - 10%

++ = 11 - 20%

+++ = over 20%

And that's exactly the amount of questions of each topic.

Good luck!

Hi Mark,

I'm about to take the examination:

Web Application Development - JAVA (C_TJA320_04), so I've read very carefully your advices/answers. But I don’t understand something:

You wrote that it would be hard to pass the examination WITHOUT taking part in all courses. Well, I’m going to take part only in the fourth course -TJA311 Web Dynpro.

Why? Because Web Dynpro is mostly SAP and other topics like EJBs or JDBC are non-SAP technologies. So I decided to learn it from SUN books/tutorials.

My question is: why do you think, it is pretty hard to pass this examination without SAP courses. Are those questions in the exam so strange, that you cannot answer them, without SAP materials.

Best regards

Pawel
