Certification FAQs

http://sapnetweavernotes.blogspot.com/2007/11/xi-certification-faqs.html

Please also go through some of the below study material also

You could be able to manage it with the regular study and as much as practise you can.

(Practise Makes man perfect ..

In Online training, you will get all Basics of XI as well as the detail explanation about XI Message Flow, Architecture and detail knowledge of various components.

You will also come across various practise scenarios with step - by -step information.

I will suggest you to practise these scenarios very well, This will help to clarify most of the conceptual things of XI. It will also help to grab the therotical conepts easily.

I have attached few links here, Please go through these links before starting with course as well as during the course.

These links provide you th einformation about first step towards learning XI.

XI Certification

The study material you will be getting will be enough for preparing for XI Certification.

The most of the questions will be based on real time scenarios (here you will get lot of help if you have practices the excersie scenarios very well)

Noramlly passing will be 60-70%. It depends at the time of exam,

Before giving exam be prepare very well for it , even there are few similar kind of questions available on sAP site. You could refer those also. or probably at the time of training you will get sample questions. these will give you the illusion of the exam questions.

Let me know if you need anything else on it
